About this course

A five-day immersion in engineering infrastructure that delivers value to stakeholders, grounded in systems thinking and systems engineering. It covers the types of information that define an infrastructure problem, stakeholder identification and requirements capture and validation, the intended-use description (CONUSE) and operational solution description, physical and logical design and trade-off studies, and engineering management in an infrastructure context. PPI states the course was created and is presented in collaboration with Engeflux Engenharia de Sistemas.
