Presenter: Pawel Chadzynski, Aras To deal with growing product complexity and tie requirements through functional, logical and physical product structure (RFLP), organizations are moving to implement Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Learn how to take the "BS" out of MBSE and provide a foundation for tomorrow's product development processes.

4. Product vs. Behavior
 Is plane a product with
lots of parts?
 Or is it a system with
behavior working with
lots of other systems
with behavior?

• Are these cars products
with lots of parts?
• Or is it a system with
behavior working with
lots of other systems
with behaviors?

Both eliminate paper documents/drawings but only
MBSE captures system behavior

“Model-Based Systems Engineering
(MBSE) is 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.” - INCOSE

23. Benefits of MBSE/PLM integration
 Persistent administration in an extended PLM and/or ALM
System for MBSE artifacts
 Integration of MBSE into the enterprise ECM (Engineering
Change Management) and CM (Configuration Management)
processes
 Managed access control
 Visualization of the MBSE artifacts
 Data exchange in the early phase based on standards
