Nuclear megaprojects don’t fail in the reactor hall, they fail much earlier when project uncertainty hardens into plans, designs and approvals.

This paper shows how an ISO 15288 aligned Systems Engineering approach helps programmes manage risk, prevent late integration surprises and build regulator confidence sooner.

By embedding risk reduction into technical and management processes, leveraging architectures and applying progressive assurance, the UK nuclear sector has the opportunity to rewrite perceptions and achieve safer, more cost-effective outcomes by adopting a systems approach.

Defence procurement is under pressure to deliver capability at unprecedented speed. Synoptix explores why incremental tweaks are no longer enough and introduces a compelling solution: Modular Requirement Libraries - SME developed and validated central repositories, tailored at a project level.

Reducing duplication, standardising compliance approaches, and reinforcing collaboration, this approach offers a practical pathway to meet the demands of the Integrated Procurement Model and beyond.

Major projects don’t fail overnight—they drift off course early. Synoptix have compiled and analysed data from engineering projects across multiple domains, exposing the hidden cause‑and‑effect patterns across the project lifecycle.

Using ISO 15288 as a practical compass, see how early organisational choices create late technical pain, and how we can address these. Are you ready to turn a lesson identified, into a lesson learnt?
