On the Theoretical Foundations of Systems Engineering
The realm of Systems Engineering is ever expanding, as a systemic sensibility percolates across engineering practice, and Systems Engineering itself produces distinctive new branches of knowledge such as Model Based Systems Engineering and System of Systems Engineering. Systems Engineering principles came off rather badly in the encounter, but the ensuing action research programme over many years and many hundreds of engagements led to the emergence and development of soft systems methodology (SSM). SSM was taken up by systems groups, albeit outside of engineering, and eventually became part of a wider endeavour in Management Science more generally known as Soft Operational Research and problem structuring methods. In this chapter, the author suggests that Systems Science/General Systems Theory is just one of several foundations and that Systems Engineering needs a much broader research agenda for its foundations.
