Week 2 Flashcards
System Life Cycle
With decision gates determining the completion of one stage and start of another. This is part of what concept in INCOSE?
A. System Cycle Concept
B. Life Cycle Concept
C. Architecture definition Concept
D. Non of the above
Correct - B, page - 25
This phase of the system life cycle involves transforming the selected solution into a detailed design, followed by the creation and testing of prototypes to ensure the system meets all specified requirements. Which stage of the system life cycle does this describe?
A. Concept Stage
B. Production Stage
C. Utilization Stage
D. Development Stage
E. Retirement Stage
Correct - D Development Stage, Page 28
This phase of the system life cycle involves manufacturing the system components, integrating them into a complete system, and verifying that the system meets the specified requirements. It is critical for ensuring the system is built according to design specifications and is ready for deployment. Which stage of the system life cycle does this describe?
A. Concept Stage
B. Development Stage
C. Production Stage
D. Utilization Stage
E. Support Stage
Correct - C, page 28
These stages are all a part of the life Cycle Stages in INCOSE:
Which if any explains the Utilization Stage?
A. Concept Stage: This phase involves defining the problem, exploring feasible solutions, and establishing the system requirements and high-level design.
B. This phase involves detailed design, building prototypes, and verifying that the system meets all specified requirements before moving to full-scale production.
D. This phase involves manufacturing the system components, assembling them into the final product, and conducting rigorous testing to ensure the system is built to design specifications.
E. This phase involves providing ongoing maintenance, updates, and logistical support to ensure the system continues to operate effectively throughout its intended lifespan.
D. This phase of the system life cycle involves deploying the system and ensuring it operates effectively in its intended environment, delivering the services for which it was designed, and monitoring its performance to meet user needs
E. None of the above
Correct - D, page 28
What is good practise to have before every beginning and end of each stage?
A. Stakeholder meeting
B. Decision review
C. Decision Gate
D. Phase Review
E. Gate Review
Correct - C, page 29

INCOSE identifies four process groups for the life cycle, providing a common framework adopting the system engineering approach. Which are these?
A. Agreement Process, Technical process, technical management and Organization project-enableing processes
B. Requirements Elicitation and Analysis, Stakeholder, Identification and Management, Contract Negotiation and Management, Configuration Management and Control
C. Budget Planning and Allocation, Cost Estimation and Analysis, Financial Risk Assessment and Management, Funding and Resource Procurement
D. Market Analysis and Segmentation, Product Positioning and Differentiation, Customer Relationship Management, Marketing Strategy Development
Correct - A

Whenever a stakeholder gives frequent feedback with high-quality feedback loops what approach is according to INCOSE a good method to use?
A. Incremental
B. Evolutionary
C. Sequential
Correct - B
page 38
How is Support Stage according to INCOSE explained and defined.
A. Support Stage: This phase involves ongoing maintenance, updates, and logistical support to ensure the system operates effectively, addressing any issues and ensuring sustained performance throughout its lifespan.
B. Support Stage: This phase involves the deployment and initial setup of the system, ensuring it operates correctly in its intended environment and monitoring its early performance.
C. Support Stage: This phase involves detailed testing and verification of the system components to ensure they meet specified requirements before full-scale production and deployment.
D. Support Stage: This phase involves the final design and development adjustments of the system to meet user requirements and prepare for production and deployment.
E. Support Stage: This phase involves evaluating and integrating the system components, ensuring they work together as intended and preparing the system for operational use.
F. None of the above
Correct - A, Page 29
The initial phase of the system life cycle is crucial because decisions made during this phase shape the possibilities for all subsequent stages, making changes increasingly difficult. Which stage is this?
A. Development Stage
B. Production Stage
C. Utilization Stage
D. Support Stage
E. Concept Stage
Correct - E, page 28
