This process can be used to manage different projects in every sector. However, the amount of managerial and technical expertise required changes with the types of the project. Systems thinking and its engineering is therefore vital for different projects. The project manager requires more technical knowledge than managerial perspective. The program manager on the other hand is more concerned about the managerial aspect of the project rather than the technical part. The portfolio manager needs a balance of technical and managerial perspective as the person is responsible for taking the ultimate decision about various investments along with a team of experts who provide support.Arnold, R.

Therig was monitored from a control facility at Texas. Therefore, systems engineering could have used here to create scenarios emulating the blast beforehand. The project case shows that it was in dire need of the proper system tools that would have helped to better organize the project and prevent the blast.Dickerson, C., & Mavris, D. N. (2016).
