The Signal and Data Transport (SaDT) consortium, includes the software and hardware necessary for the transmission of data and information between elements of SKA, and the Synchronization and Timing (SAT) system provides frequency and clock signals. The SAT local monitoring and control system (SAT. LMC) monitors and controls the SAT system. SAT. LMC has its team members distributed across India, South Africa and UK. This paper discusses the systems engineering methods adopted by SAT. LMC on interface design with work packages owned by different organizations, configuration control of design artefacts, and quality control through intermediate releases, design assumptions and risk management. The paper also discusses the internal SAT. LMC team communication model, cross culture sensitivity and leadership principles adopted to keep the project on track and deliver quality design products whilst staying flexible to the changes in the overall SKA program.
