Discussion

"System realization" is used in the SEBoK as a knowledge area (KA); it includes several systems engineering (SE) activities such as system implementation, integration, verification, and validation. (See System Realization KA.) This generally aligns with the "development" and "production" stages as discussed in the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) Systems Engineering Handbook (INCOSE 2012).
