The following figure shows the basic principle of the "plug-in" concept. The top-level comprises all system engineering processes organized in a system "V". Depending on the product to be developed the corresponding engineering disciplines with their domain-specific processes (e.g. hardware engineering HWE, mechanical engineering MEE, or software engineering SWE) can be added to the assessment scope. All other processes such as management processes and supporting processes are domain-independent and are therefore designed in a way that they can be applied to both the system level and the domain levels.
