Choose the correct answer

is it possible to conduct a systems engineering project without applying a methodology?
A . Yes. if only the project’s tasks are defined
B. Yes. it only the project’s processes are defined.
C. No. system engineering projects will fail if no dedicated methodology is applied
D. No. even it r>o formal methodology is applied, working spontaneously is considered to be a methodology

Answer: D

Explanation:

A methodology is a set of principles, methods and practices that guide the execution of a project or activity. A systems engineering project always involves some kind of methodology, even if it is not explicitly defined or documented. Working spontaneously or randomly is also a form of methodology, although it may not be very effective or efficient. A systems engineering project cannot be conducted without applying any methodology at all.
