Analysis of Our Experience with Integrating Acquired Systems

Having the requirements development occur where the equipment is being built greatly improves the result, reducing the time required to implement.

People are most productive using tools that are familiar to them.

Maintenance cost increase because the purchaser must train someone to take over maintenance of the subsystem controls.

Integration requirements must be considered from the design phase.

Subsystem control requirements are a subset of integrated control requirements - which do not all show up in a timely fashion.
