Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) - 1
[NASA]: Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is defined as the formalized application of modeling to support system
requirements, design, analysis, verification and validation activities beginning in the conceptual design phase and continuing
throughout development and later life-cycle phases

Why model-based system engineering?
1. Enhanced Design Quality: Model-based system engineering (MBSE) enables better design accuracy and
consistency through formalized models, reducing errors and rework.
2. Improved Communication: MBSE provides a “single source of truth”, facilitating clearer communication and
understanding across multidisciplinary teams.
3. Early Detection of Issues: By simulating and analyzing systems early in the design process, MBSE helps
identify potential issues before they become costly problems.
4. Increased Efficiency: Automation of repetitive tasks and better integration of system components streamline
development processes, leading to faster project completion.
5. Reusability: MBSE promotes the reuse of models and components, making it easier to reduce development
costs for future projects.

Reflective questions
• How mature is your team in adopting model-based system
engineering? Do you rely on word documents or on models?
• How does your team integrate model-based system engineering
(MBSE) tools and techniques into your way of working?
• How consistent is your team's use of models for requirements,
design, analysis, and verification activities in comparison to
traditional document-based methods?
