Experiences reside in minds of employees and are not systematically documented but could have a significant influence on sustainable product engineering. Existing approaches do not offer sufficient support for harnessing technical tacit knowledge regarding sustainable product engineering. In this paper a three-step method is presented: The method contains knowledge acquisition, requirements extraction und requirements validation for quality assurance. Acquisition is performed by support artifacts like interview guidelines. Extraction is supported by Artificial Intelligence, converting statements into requirements. These requirements are validated using a specific questionnaire. The developed approach is applied in a funded project of the European Union (EU) with automotive industry partners. The method supports product engineers to collect tacit knowledge from experienced employees, transform unsystematic knowledge into standardized technical requirements and validate them. Application of this method enables creation of validated requirements that can be applied throughout the company and are not exclusively dependent on a single employee.","lang":"eng"}],"publication":"1st International Symposium: March 24 – 26, 2026, Heinz Nixdorf Institute, Paderborn University","user_id":"98210","volume":1,"editor":[{"last_name":"Graessler","first_name":"Iris","full_name":"Graessler, Iris"}],"page":"229-238","_id":"66547","publisher":"Universitätsbibliothek","status":"public","conference":{"end_date":"2026-03-26","location":"Paderborn","start_date":"2026-03-24","name":"International Symposium on Hybrid Intelligence in Product and Production Engineering 1. 2026 Paderborn"},"place":"Paderborn","quality_controlled":"1","citation":{"mla":"Mansheim, Johanna, et al. “Harnessing Tacit Knowledge from Sustainable Product Engineering through Artificial Intelligence.” <i>1st International Symposium: March 24 – 26, 2026, Heinz Nixdorf Institute, Paderborn University</i>, edited by Iris Graessler, vol. 1, Universitätsbibliothek, 2026, pp. 229–38, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.17619/UNIPB/1-2639\">10.17619/UNIPB/1-2639</a>.","ama":"Mansheim J, Gräßler I, Pfeifer JN.

Especially when considering emergent phenomena, such as total weight or aerodynamics, a closely networked collaboration of discipline‐specific and cross‐disciplinary roles is required. Further, in large organizations with a group structure, resulting functional and non‐functional contents need to be managed by distinct Systems Engineering roles. For example, the role “property manager” takes care of achieving overarching product properties, such as weight or aerodynamics, which cannot be directly fixed, but result from many specifications. This paper proposes new Systems Engineering roles and their application in a German Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). For validation, the roles have already been applied in everyday engineering projects at the OEM. The concept proved to be indispensable and transferable to other Systems Engineering projects.</jats:p>","lang":"eng"}],"date_created":"2024-09-11T08:07:26Z","type":"conference","keyword":["Systems Engineering roles","properties","features","emergent phenomena","automotive"],"department":[{"_id":"152"}]}]
