Abstract

In this research, a System of Systems (SoS) meta-architecture is conceptualized to design a digital platform-based system framework for the distribution of domestic workers to boost the crowd-sourced economy. While an Object Process Methodology (OPM) is used to articulate the relationships between the objects and functions, a Design Structure Matrix (DSM) has been applied to address the interactions between individual components to categorize them into subsystems to create the SoS architecture. This SoS architecture incorporates several Key Performance Attributes (KPAs) and Key Performance Parameters (KPPs) to systematically evaluate the meta-architectures. The Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP), Pugh’s Evaluation Matrix, and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) are employed to evaluate different levels of the system architecture. The most significant KPPs for each KPA can be used in modeling processes to estimate the system capability. These systems architecting and evaluation approaches, conducted using hypothetical data, distinguish critical factors and attributes of the SoS architecture for the domestic worker supplier system, offering structured insights into system design. Further validation with real-world data is necessary to assess its practical applicability and scalability of the model.
