Principles of systems acquisition and integration guide the system development process and hopefully contribute to the success of the process as well as resulting products. This tutorial examines acquisition guidelines in detail, especially those supported by the U. S. Department of Defense. It also explores integration notions, from those that are recommended to those that tend to lead to difficulties. Relationships between acquisition guidance and integration responses are presented. A summary stresses key principles to be considered by the practicing systems engineer and also the value of utilizing these principles. Selected topics include: the DoD 5000 series, the DAPA report, capability‐based acquisition, the “top five” systems and software issues, interoperability, and a “top dozen” integration list.
