“…The peer status of the group members could be maintained through the technical work of the project but could not be maintained at the administrative level (Bialik, 1960). The probability of project success was noted to be increased by improvement of planning and monitoring processes (Tinus & Och, 1959). To effectively improve project planning the project must begin with a study phase to determine what needs to be solved and to propose multiple methods of solution which must be compared technically and financially.…”

This paper is the second stage in a project investigating the early history of systems engineering. Many current systems engineering texts refer to the post World War II era as the origin of systems engineering as a means to overcome the problems of systems development projects that failed to deliver satisfactory product systems according to budget and schedule. The present paper investigates primary sources from the 1950's period to provide an understanding of the early stages of development of the systems engineering solution to the problems that had been observed and discussed in part 1 of this study. The sources have been investigated from the perspective of the evidence that they provide concerning the systems engineering solution to the problems which had been experienced and why these solutions were regarded as satisfactory.
