dc.description.abstractProject management (PM) and systems engineering (SE) practitioners and academics experience various challenges regarding meaningful interaction while seeking project success. This situation exists despite sophisticated PM and SE software tools, the existing body of knowledge documents of different professional bodies, and numerous publications addressing this challenge. Generally, projects are fragmented from their initiation on the highest level into a ‘technical’ process and a project management process. This paper summarises the outcomes of several research projects undertaken from 2012 until recently to analyse the problem. The outputs of these studies are also compared with contemporary research to present an understanding of the problem and to suggest potential solutions to improve PM and SE interaction. The aim is to provide a starting point for future-focused research to evaluate the proposed improvements.en_US
dc.description.abstractProjekbestuur en stelselingenieurswese praktisyns en akademici ervaar verskeie uitdagings rakende betekenisvolle interaksie om projeksukses te behaal. Hierdie probleem situasie bestaan ten spyte van gesofistikeerde sagteware, die groot hoeveelheid riglyne van verskillende professionele organisasies, en talle publikasies wat hierdie uitdaging aanspreek. Oor die algemeen word projekte gefragmenteer vanaf hul aanvang op die hoogste vlak in 'n 'tegniese' proses en 'n projekbestuursproses. Hierdie artikel som die uitkomste op van verskeie navorsingsprojekte wat vanaf 2012 tot onlangs onderneem is om die probleem te ontleed. Die uitsette van hierdie studies word ook vergelyk met kontemporêre navorsing om 'n begrip van die probleem te bied en om potensiële oplossings voor te stel om pojekbestuur en stelselingenieurswese interaksie te verbeter. Die doel is om 'n beginpunt te bied vir toekomsgerigte navorsing om die voorgestelde verbeterings te evalueer.en_US
