Specialty engineering activities are key to realization of successful systems. At the same time, the specialty engineering assessment are complicated and in most cases complex. In real life projects, very often the integration of specialty engineering activities is difficult. In some cases there is a lack of understanding the importance of those activities and sometimes there are organizational barriers. To overcome those barriers an approach is proposed that is based on widely accepted standards. The difficulty is that existing systems engineering standards poorly describe specialty engineering activities and how they are integrated with traditional engineering activities. This paper provides an approach to successfully accomplish this integration. It is extremely important that specialty engineers are involved in every life cycle phase. At the same time, a common understanding of the integrated approach needs to be achieved.
