IEEE P24748-2/D3, Jun 2018

IEEE P24748-2/D3, Jun 2018 is a draft standard focused on Part 2 guidelines for the application of ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288, the system life cycle processes model used in computing and processing projects. It provides a structured reference for applying system engineering practices across components, circuits, devices, and systems, helping teams interpret lifecycle activities in a consistent way. For organizations working with complex technical systems, this document can support clearer process alignment and better lifecycle control.

IEEE P24748-2/D3, Jun 2018 overview

This technical document addresses how the system life cycle processes in ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288 may be applied in practice. IEEE P24748-2/D3, Jun 2018 is intended to guide organizations that need a more practical understanding of lifecycle process use in computing and processing environments. Its scope is centered on process application rather than product design, making it relevant for engineering teams, systems integrators, and reviewers who need a common framework for planning, execution, and verification across system development activities.

Typical use cases

IEEE P24748-2/D3, Jun 2018 is typically used when defining or reviewing lifecycle processes for complex system programs, especially where hardware and software elements must be coordinated. It may help with systems engineering plans, process tailoring, requirements interpretation, verification activities, and lifecycle governance for devices, subsystems, and integrated platforms. The guidance is especially useful in environments where engineering teams need a shared method for applying ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288 across project phases and technical work products.

Why this standard matters

This standard matters because lifecycle process consistency can reduce ambiguity during development, review, and delivery. IEEE P24748-2/D3, Jun 2018 supports clearer application of system life cycle practices, which can improve compliance efforts, procurement alignment, and technical oversight. For organizations managing complex computing and processing systems, a defined approach to process application may help reduce risk, support traceability, and improve confidence that engineering activities are carried out in a controlled and repeatable way.
