This paper explores the relationship between the domains of Systems Engineering and Human Factors. As complexity of product design increases a clear perspective of how these domains can be combined is necessary if systems under development are to be proficient. The relationship between the two domains is elaborated through the PU2B‐model, Product Utility Usability Business Model, which is a high level meta model developed to support decision making in systems design. With the PU2B‐model as base the paper presents how Systems Engineering and Human Factors relate to each other and can be combined to get the most out of both.
