The systems engineering development of an intelligence information system

Abstract

The Systems Engineering Development of the Intelligence Information System allows military and customer intelligence agencies to consolidate and eliminate the current deficiencies. The Intelligence Information System’s development is through a systematic approach that identifies the key components needed over the system’s life time. This development identifies needs and requirements necessary to prevent the problem with the development of poor, inefficient and costly systems. These needs lead to the intelligence system’s organization formation. The needs also lead to the intelligence information’s requirements and mission creation. The next step in the system development is to create the mission requirements, the operational requirements and the system maintenance concept. The intelligence system’s operational and maintenance requirements are further broken down into smaller requirements with functional flow diagrams. These smaller requirements lead to the detail design and development of the intelligence information system. Once the development of the system begins, an integrated system and test plan ensures the intelligence system’s fulfill the mission and customer’s needs. To manage and control the development of the information system, a system engineering plan is created. The System’s Engineering design of the Intelligence System identifies all primary components necessary to develop and maintain the system throughout its lifetime.
