Systems Capabilities

Systems engineering is at the core of the AES development process. The definition we prefer for systems engineering is "a documented approach to developing the requirements and configuration of a system and breaking down those requirements into an executable design." 1

While most agree specification development and subsystem allocation is core to systems engineering, AES expands our approach further. Our product development is heavily process-driven. Design reviews and audits are performed at key milestones of the development cycle, ensuring that our standards have successfully been met at each stage of the design.

Finally, verification of key design requirements is essential before a program goes into production. AES can design and implement a testing plan to validate your product performance against your requirements. See our Testing and Certification page to better understand our capabilities in this area.
