Abstract :
This paper proposes an approach to improve the resilience of systems in the design stage by considering a framework of resilience to inform the system´s requirements. We suggest that, in addition, one should consider the regulatory needs, not only of the system, but also the management of the engineering and project/program management processes. Finally we propose a link between the unstructured problem space and the structured engineering and project management space through the consideration of multiple dimensions of the system´s needs.
