Agenda for the Annual General Meeting
The agenda for the Annual General Meeting is according to the bylaws as follows:
Election of Officers and Directors
According to the bylaws the members of the Board of Directors are elected for a two-year period with half of the members elected one year, the other half the next year. The positions currently held by the following members are open for election:
All four are running again, presentation of the candidates can be found here.
Josef Oehmen, Ph.D., MBA, is an Associate Professor at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). His research focuses on designing and managing large-scale (systems) engineering programs, especially on how to deal with risk, uncertainty and ignorance. He is the founder and coordinator of the Engineering Systems RiskLab at DTU (http://risklab.dtu.dk). Prior to DTU, Josef worked at MIT and ETH Zurich (where he also obtained his PhD).
He has won numerous awards and scholarships, including regular keynote speaker invitations, teaching awards, the Shingo Prize for his work on Lean Engineering Program Management (2013), an appointment as Visiting Professor at the Technical University of Munich (2012), DAU Research Competition Winner (2012), INCOSE collaboration award (2012), a journal paper of the year award (2011), and the research award of the Department for Management, Technology and Economics at the ETH Zurich in 2009.
He co-founded DTU's Engineering Systems Group as well as MIT’s Consortium on Engineering Program Excellence (CEPE), co-chairs the INCOSE Lean Systems Engineering Working Group, and founded and co-chairs the Design Society’s Special Interest Group on Risk Management Processes and Methods. He is a member of the board of IDA Risk.
Josef's current research focuses on developing and implementing paradigm-shifting risk management techniques in the design, construction and operation of Engineering Systems. He brings a design and risk management perspective to improving how we collaborate in project management and systems engineering. He works on advanced (non probabilistic and ML-based) risk quantification methods, principles of resilient engineering and project execution, lean risk management, and risk-informed leadership in engineering organizations.

Aarhus Vand (AAV) is in the planning mode for the new wastewater treatment plant, called the ReWater project. AAV presents their project with these words: “The world’s most resource‑efficient wastewater treatment plant will be located in Aarhus. Close to the city, the sea, and everyday life, the new facility – Aarhus ReWater – will receive our wastewater, ensure good water quality in streams, lakes, and the bay, and convert the wastewater into new materials, new products, and new energy.”. So, besides cleaning wastewater, energy production along with ambitions of co-production is one of many requirements to address. The total cost is estimated to be 7.500.000.000 DKK (2025 price).
In 2025, AAV realized that the complexity, risk, dependencies, number of stakeholders etc. in the project requested a far more effective and systematic approach and decided to go with the basic principles from systems engineering. To accelerate the implementation, and get started right away, AAV chose the Systems Engineering Concept® from Systems Engineering A/S to apply systems engineering in the ReWater project. With this, the basic system architecture, identification of first system interfaces, identification of base requirements and involving stakeholders has started. The results have been positive so far, and the SE methods along with the daily use is expected to increase the design quality and collaboration among all parties as the project in moving on.
For this INCOSE AGM, AAV has been asked to present their results so far but due to the heavy burden on the project management, Henrik Balslev from Systems Engineering A/S will present on behalf of AAV. The presentation will focus on the results achieved so far with the system architecture, requirement management (from scratch), stakeholder management, and system integration.
