Agenda:

Novo Nordisk Systems Engineering Handbook by Per Vikkelsøe from Novo Nordisk A/S.
In 2023, Novo Nordisk conducted a project to improve the systems engineering capabilities for medical devices. This has resulted in the Novo Nordisk Systems Engineering Handbook which is based on ISO 15288. Per will present the handbook and the work behind it.

• Per is an INCOSE Certified Systems Engineering Professional (ASEP). He is Principal Systems Engineer and Process Manager for systems engineering in Devices & Delivery Solutions at Novo Nordisk.

The use of the RFLP framework as collaboration platform to facilitate product maintenance in a highly regulated industry by Rajat Mehta and Anna Bellini from Radiometer A/S
In the Medical Device industry, every design change implemented in a certified product must be carefully assessed, well documented and clearly communicated to the competent authorities. In the case of complex systems this requires that engineers from different disciplines get together to technically identify the impact of the change and consequently agree on verification and validation activities to be performed; the outcome of this work is then communicated to quality assurance and regulatory assurance personnel who consequently inform the competent authorities.   
Given the involvement of such diverse competences, from very technical on one side to more legal on the other, it is often observed that the process is affected by large incomprehension causing delays and rework. With the application of the RFLP framework Radiometer has established a collaboration platform to standardize communication, visualize product impact, align the organization hence facilitate product maintenance.

• Rajat Mehta is the Head of the Product Systems group at Radiometer Medical. He is dedicated to refining systems engineering practices, fostering innovation, and driving development initiatives across the organization.
• Anna Bellini works in R&D at Radiometer, where she has driven a transformation project to implement Systems Architecture artifacts with the purpose of improving R&D efficiency in managing product complexity​.

INCOSE Working Groups by Shailesh Patil from Ørsted A/S.
INCOSE working groups are a great place to meet individuals who are looking to overcome similar challenges. Today we have close to 50 working groups and all these INCOSE Working Groups create products, present panels, develop and review standards, and forge industry partnerships.

• Shailesh is an INCOSE Certified Systems Engineering Professional (CSEP). He is also inducted as an INCOSE TLI member through INCOSE IS2020. He is currently Senior Lead specialist in systems engineering at Ørsted for windpower, driving the implementation of Systems engineering concept and tool chain organization-wide.

Re-visioning Our Digital Future by David Long.
While model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is new and fresh for many, our journey to model-based is over 20 years old. Much has happened over the last two decades advancing technologies and changing context. As we look to the future, what foundations can we build upon and what direction should we move to maximize the progress and value of SE’s digital transformation?

• David has spent over 30 years helping organizations around the world increase their systems engineering proficiency, particularly in the areas of model-based systems engineering and digital engineering. David founded and led Vitech where he developed innovative, industry-leading methods and software to help organizations engineer next-generation systems. An INCOSE Fellow and Expert Systems Engineering Professional, David was the 2014/2015 president of INCOSE and currently serves as INCOSE’s Director for Strategic Integration.

The event is open for all, free of charge but only members of INCOSE Denmark are able to vote on the General Meeting. Be sure to renew your membership if you are due to renew to ensure your vote will count.
