SYSTEMS ENGINEERING PROCESSES DEPLOYMENT FOR PLM FOR ENGINEERING EDUCATION

The present paper addresses the following question: Is it possible to apply a step based on the systems engineering for the development of the product life cycle manufacturing?. The orginal problem was to find a way to address PLM for industrial engineering courses. PLM concerns globally the information system in product lifecycle as a support for the management processes. We propose in this paper to address the systems engineering (SE) underlying concepts to PLM and show how we can deploy systems engineering processes to model PLM processes. The key contribution is that SE being a generic approach for systems analysis and design is a comprehensive approach. Such approach t can be complementary to PLM as it addresses the systems in a free dependant technology that can be customized to PLM and also integration of new technologies.
