Managing System Verification & Validation

Managing System Verification & Validation

Proving it Works and Final System Turnover

Verification – The process of proving that the system requirements have been met and that the system meets all design specifications answers the question “Did we build the system right?”

Validation – The process of proving that the system can perform it’s intended mission and lives up to user expectations answers the question “Did we build the right system?”

Verifying and validating a system is a critical step in getting the system accepted by both users and stakeholders. Too many projects have met major defeat during verification and validation. Yet you cannot have a successful system turnover (project delivery) without successful verification and validation.

This course will provide you with an in-depth understanding of the verification and validation process including how to plan for verification and validation, how to perform verification and validation processes, how to manage V&V risks and issues, steps to take for successful system turnover, how to plan for and manage the turnover process, and how to manage user and stakeholder expectations throughout the entire project lifecycle.

This one-day course provides an in-depth understanding of the verification and validation process and best practices. The course uses a case study to create a simulated environment in which you will manage the verification, validation, and final turnover of a complex technical system.

Course Overview

The course teaches you critical skills required for planning, managing, and executing the verification and validation phase of a technical project.

After completing this course you will have an excellent understanding of how to manage V&V to ensure a successful system sell-off and turnover to users and stakeholders.

Course Format

The course is one-day in length and uses a case study involving a simulated IT project in which you will manage verification, validation, and final turnover over the project lifecycle.

Interactive lecture sessions and discussion are used to prepare participants between exercises. The course is highly experiential to ensure that participants learn by doing.

Who Should Attend

Technical project and subproject managers, engineering managers, technical professionals, and anyone involved in technical development or integration projects.

This course will provide a wealth of valuable information and skills if you manage or participate in any part of the technical project lifecycle.
