System engineering processes at Kennedy Space Center for development of SLS and Orion Launch Systems

There are over 40 subsystems being developed for the future SLS and Orion Launch Systems at Kennedy Space Center. These subsystems developed at the Kennedy Space Center Engineering Directorate follow a comprehensive design process which requires several different product deliverables during each phase of each of the subsystems. This Paper describes this process and gives an example of a subsystem where this systems engineering process has been applied.
