The IEEE Standard for the "Application and Management of the Systems Engineering Process" (IEEE Std 1220-1994) is the first standard that recommends (para. 4.6, 6.8.12) the use of an "Integrated Database" to assist the Systems Engineering Process (SEP). As technology evolves, and projects become more and more complex, the application of the SEP generates megabytes of data that must be managed effectively. This paper analyses the intent of the IEEE recommendations, and discusses the concept of an Engineering Information System in support of the SEP application for the Engineering of Computer Based Systems. Without integration, the independent tools of Requirements Analysis and Management, Design Modeling, Configuration Management etc. may end up removing value from Systems Engineering work.
