Program Acquisition and Systems Engineering Community of Practice Jacobs sponsors a Program Acquisition and Systems Engineering (PASE) Community of Practice (CoP) to develop, implement, continuously improve, and promote effective program acquisition and systems engineering principles and practices and share knowledge with practitioners across the company. CoP members have access to a collaborative web site where they can find information on best practices and lessons learned, tools and processes specific to the systems engineering discipline, and discussion boards for asking questions and sharing answers with other Jacobs system engineering professionals. Members of the PASE CoP may utilize these resources to stay on the cutting edge of systems engineering practice. Jacobs' customers have the benefit of not only the systems engineering personnel on their contracts, but also the combined knowledge of the members of the CoP. |
