From inception to delivery, our mission at Synoptix is to make complex systems understandable and ensure that all stakeholders benefit from a unified, coherent vision of a project – at every stage.
It’s a structured, holistic and interdisciplinary approach, which is the essence of Systems Engineering. And it’s the best way to ensure complex projects succeed.
Our deep expertise in Systems Engineering means customers benefit from:
Improved quality and cost effectiveness
Systems Engineering focuses on the entire system rather than isolated components. This holistic approach ensures that all subsystems work together seamlessly, which is crucial in complex projects where multiple interacting parts must function in harmony.
It also covers the commercial, financial and resource management aspects of complex projects. This, combined with our extensive experience in defining work packages, means we can ensure an efficient, “right first time” approach.
Incose UK found that:
When you are 15% into your project’s timescale, 60% of its budget will already be committed.
If you are allocating less than 2% of your total budget to System Engineering, your eventual overspend is likely to be above 50%. At this point, increased expenditure will yield a return on investment of 7:1.
In relative terms, the ‘cost of repair’ increases from 1 at the point of describing what ‘it’ is going to look like, to 250 to correct why ‘it’ doesn’t look anything like it was supposed to.
Reduced risk
Key to our collaborative approach is listening carefully and working closely with our customers through consultation, team assembly, integration and execution. We pride ourselves on understanding the challenges before tailoring an approach that promotes success.
Our Systems Engineering experts analyse the risks, issues, causes and mitigation activities of previous customers’ projects and apply this knowledge to reduce risk for current and future work. Risks are also minimised by transparency and clarity; we openly share information and intentions with our customers to foster trust and understanding.
It’s this Requirements Management expertise that maintains quality and cost effectiveness by ensuring that stakeholder needs are clearly defined, traced, and verified throughout the project lifecycle. This includes the integration and verification of subsystems, and reduces the risk of missed requirements that could lead to costly rework – or even failure.
Flexibility
Systems Engineering encourages continuous refinement through the use of models, simulations and prototyping. This approach enables early detection of issues and provides flexibility to adapt to changing requirements – or unforeseen challenges – during customer projects.
Our flexible business structure allows us to pull together the right team for each project. We’ll tailor our Systems Engineering approach to support your particular challenge and/or stage of your project lifecycle. Project management expertise and agility lets us flex within projects to resolve unforeseen issues, and deliver your projects to time, budget and quality.
Scalability
The scalability of Systems Engineering methodology means it can be applied to projects with a wide range of sizes and complexities, from small projects to larger-scale systems like aircraft or infrastructure projects.
Systems Thinking expertise
Systems Thinking is where Systems Engineering starts. It’s a holistic mindset – that all our experts have – which helps us see the connections between related systems concepts. It’s what enables our people to look at the context of complex project issues, whether technical, political, ethical or social, in a way that informs and enriches our engineering work.
Innovation
Synoptix is a key contributor to research projects that exploit new technologies to enhance and strengthen our Systems Engineering offering – and customer outcomes. This means we can offer skills in new technologies before our competitors. Our Technology Development Plan helps our customers evaluate which innovations can support their goals.
A long-term view
Systems Engineering covers the entire lifecycle of a system, from concept development through to eventual disposal or even retirement. This focus helps ensure that decisions made in early phases are aligned with long-term sustainability and performance.
