Large Scale Engineering project process and user requirements

This paper presents results from an analysis of Large Scale Engineering (LSE) project process conducted within the ESPRIT 20876 project ‘eLSEwise’. The paper describes the LSE project processes, interfaces with business processes, the effects of the changing market place, and current process barriers. In searching how these barriers can be reduced or eliminated, the LSE industry information requirements and Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) requirements were explored.
