Let Us Help You

SEPT provides consulting services to help organizations understand, implement, and use ISO/IEC 15288 system engineering processes. SEPT can explain the 15288 standard to your enterprise in non-technical everyday language so that you can better understand the standard and more effectively implement and use it.

SEPT consulting services are led by Stan Magee, founder and president of SEPT. He was the convener of the ISO working group that developed 15288; and, as a result, has unique insights into it. Other system engineering consultants partnering with SEPT have also played a major role in the development of this important system standard. Detailed information about Mr. Magee and other SEPT consultants is shown below.

In addition to consulting services, SEPT has produced a set of templates and checklists that support life cycle processes per the 15288 standard. These templates and checklists are available for sale to the public.

To review your needs, send us an e-mail to stanmagee@Smartwire.net and we will be pleased to discuss how we may assist you.
