Product Integration: An Engineering Process Area at Maturity Level 3
Purpose
The purpose of Product Integration (PI) is to assemble the product from the product components, ensure that the product, as integrated, behaves properly (i.e., possesses the required functionality and quality attributes), and deliver the product.
Hint
To achieve problem-free integration, you need to prepare for product integration activities early in the project.
Introductory Notes
This process area addresses the integration of product components into more complex product components or into complete products.
Tip
In some engineering disciplines (e.g., mechanical engineering), the term assembly is generally preferred over integration. In PI, these two words are ...
