“…A well-executed concept stage should provide immediate opportunities for reducing the carbon footprint of the system being engineered, with those opportunities flowing downstream through the remaining stages of the lifecycle. Within the systems engineering body of knowledge there have been many advances in the delivery of the concept stage (Robinson, Waite, Do 2014), but there are none known to the authors that have explicitly focused on developing opportunities that lead to reducing the carbon footprint. The concept stage is…”

In the early stages of systems development, systems engineers will typically evaluate alternatives based on performance, cost, risk, and schedule to evaluate the solution space of alternatives. While these criteria have proven to be successful, there is growing interest in the analysis of carbon costs as well to contribute to the decision making. These decision criteria are very good to help the decision maker select the best alternative within the solution space in which to develop a system concept. We offer another criterion for consideration to account for carbon expenditure throughout the systems engineering lifecycle. We believe that including this dimension can influence decision makers to evaluate a richer portion of the solution space. This approach is developed and exercised with a notional example.

The Concept Stage is focused on developing the stakeholder needs and requirements, reducing risks, pursuing opportunities, and defining the concepts of use (Walden et al, 2015).…”

“…All these artifacts should set the project vision for reducing the carbon footprint of the system when considering delivery, deployment, and retirement. For this paper, the authors have chosen to explore the development and definition of the concepts of use, through Model-Based Conceptual Design approaches (Robinson, Waite, Do, 2014).…”

“…In recent years, a need has been identified to make a paradigm shift from document-centric to model-centric systems engineering [Robinson et al, 2014]. Using models as a primary means of information exchange instead of a document-centric approach can improve consistency, re-use and integration [Woestenenk, 2014].…”
