Balancing Process and Content; Understanding Architecting in relation with Other Processes

abstract The automotive domain is quite demanding. Trucks and Cars have to be highly dependable (e.g. safe and reliable), and to operate in wildly varying conditions (from harsh environments such as deserts up to extreme winter weather). The life time of the vehicles is decade(s). The production volume demands mass production and well tuned supply chains to operate in a competitive environment. More and faster market and technology changes come on top of all these demands.

Partial solution to this demanding environment is an intricate set of processes. Good processes are crucial. Unfortunately, processes can also hamper the business, for instance by focusing so much on form that content gets lost.

Architecting is an activity that delivers content (needs analysis, requirements, design concepts, design decisions). Architecting can benefits a lot from good process interaction, reversely it can suffer tremendously from lack of process or overkill of process.
