“…In the Healthcare domain, EPGs (known as computerized Clinical Practice Guidelines) are reported as support tools with regular and successful utilization (Makela & Kunnamo, 2001;Lyng, 2013;Peleg, 2013;Barr et al, 2013). Similarly EPGs have started to be used in the Systems Engineering domain (Neerincx, 2011;Kawinfruangfukul et al, 2013).…”

The design and utilization of Electronic Process Guides (EPGs) have been studied in the Software Engineering (SwE) since the1990's. However, the empirical findings from surveys, case studies, and experiments on the beneficial effectffigures of their utilization are still lacking. Thus, we suggest that further research on the utilization of EPGs is required. In this study, we are interested in gaining insights on the effects of using EPGs on objective metrics (learning score, time effort) and subjective metrics (perceived usefulness, ease of use, and value), by comparing three EPG designs (a simple PDF-based EPG, a normal HTML-based EPG, and a sophisticated Java-based EPG) with different blocks of experimental subjects (practitioners, academicians, novices, and experts). To this end we have conducted a controlled experiment with a sample of international participants in the domain of IT Service Management. We found that the utilization of EPGs improves the objective metrics while no improvements were perceived on the subjective ones, and that the sophisticated EPG design is more appropriate for the academic and expert types of users than for the practitioner and novice types. Thus, our main recommendation for the design and utilization of EPGs is to consider the type of enduser,

System engineering is an interdisciplinary field of engineering and engineering management that focuses on the design and management of the system. The system as a whole is the concern, which is followed by more technical aspects of the system, the design of everything, and the management of a complex system. Inspecting and making the system more efficient is the focus for system engineers. Additionally, risk management is being able to predict, evaluate, and solve risks that are going to happen or may happen in the future. There are three models that help system engineers with making a complex system look simpler and less frightening: the Vee, Spiral, and Waterfall models. While system thinking is a very important part of system engineering, there always has to be a collection of data to study for making decisions. As of now, there is no explanation in literature how these variables, their concepts, and models are beneficial to project management. This has created a research gap, so the study examined the most current variables, their concepts, and models in operations and project management. Furthermore, a design-science-investigate strategy was used to approve a valuable growth reveal for both reasonable and hypothetical application. As a result, an assessment model was generated to fill the research gap and to contribute to the engineering field through improved project success rates and team communication.
