Object Management Group (OMG) and The International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) Space Related Standards Presentation and Evolution Discussion
Instructors: Justin Boss, Kratos Defense, Steve MacLaird, OMG, and Eric Belle, INCOSE ♦ (bios)

The International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) is a global, not-for-profit membership organization dedicated to the discipline of Systems Engineering (SE). The INCOSE Standards Development Department (SDD) has participated with Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) since 1999. Beginning with ISO 15288 in 2001, the SDD has provided Subject Matter Experts contributing to systems and software standards published by many SDOs.

The goal of this session is to present space related OMG and INCOSE supported standards as well as receive feedback on existing and potentially new areas that could benefit from standards.

The evening session will consist of two parts:
The first part of the session will highlight the OMG and INCOSE supported standards that are widely applied in the space domain. Presenters will provide information as to what the specifications are and how are they commonly applied. In addition, tentative roadmaps will also be presented to help attendees understand the currently planned evolution of the standards. A brief question and answer period will follow each presentation.

The second half of the session will be interactive with the audience. Guidance will be sought as to areas where new standards might be developed to further aid in ground system development, implementation, and operations. In addition, feedback will be sought on the roadmaps that were presented in the first half of the session to better align with user needs.Participation will allow attendees to have a much-needed voice in ground-related standards development and evolution.
