Abstract
With the rapid change in today's R&D environment and the enlargement of the expected quality level for R&D outcomes, it has become increasingly necessary to effectively define the R&D standard processes tailored for our organization and projects. To meet this needs, we defined the R&D standard processes based on the standards for systems and software engineering and our traditional work methods and applied them to our ongoing projects. We will improve our defined R&D standard processes continuously by monitoring of the processes and the feedback of the application results. In this paper, we introduce the R&D standard processes developed by E Research Institute and the requirements and approaches used for their development. We compare our defined R&D standard processes with ISO/IEC 15288 which is the first international standard for systems engineering.
