A Systems of Systems Approach for Product Development
Companies like aerospace and defense company Lockheed Martin and shipbuilder thyssenkrupp Marine Systems each use Model-Based Systems Engineering to manage and simplify product complexity in development. Read the implementation stories in a new white paper by journalist Tony Velocci. The paper reveals the many benefits of MBSE including how a ‘systems of systems' approach simplifies engineering complexities between mechanical, electrical, software, and other components using a standard language. One standard language simplifies problem definition and agreement on a solution(s).
Unifying Systems Modeling Language
Using a modeling language that unifies multiple [software] languages is essential. The common language employed by No Magic* users, Systems Modeling Language, known as SysML, allows all project stakeholders to share systems information. By offering a more complete representation of systems, SysML helps reduce errors and ambiguities during systems development processes. (*No Magic was acquired by Dassault Systèmes in 2018)
“No Magic cuts through the complexity of sharing information among engineering teams from the start. As a result, the end product we want to build is likely to be better designed, with better outcomes and fewer surprises at later stages of the project. That saves time and money.”
Key MBSE Implementation Considerations
Whether improving an existing practice or applying MBSE to a new program, the first step involves reviewing your current engineering environment to define gaps or known shortcomings.

A Demonstration of MBSE in Action
The Dassault Systèmes portfolio of Cyber Systems solutions for MBSE simplifies the complexity of product development and managing the product over its lifecycle. Watch the video demonstration featuring the development of a new European automobile safety feature highlighting the 3DEXPERIENCE platform for MBSE and CATIA Magic.

On-Time Product Launches with Model-Based Systems Engineering
How do you improve your product development processes? Read this ebook for ways to improve complex systems development, "Model-Based Systems Engineering: the Key to On-Time Product Launches."
(Hint: Integration is not the answer.)
What if the entire team could collaborate using one 3D model as you develop your product? Learn the benefits of using industry-leading engineering and simulation software with a platform approach. With this approach leading companies their products in a virtual environment to verify fit, form, and function to eliminate errors early in the development cycle.
