What is MBSE?

How can engineers solve complex problems before they happen? Dale Goulding interviews Mark Sampson, MBSE evangelist, about the shift from document-based engineering to model-based systems engineering (MBSE). They explore how MBSE enables cross-domain collaboration, tackles system complexity, and helps teams avoid repeated mistakes. Mark shares real-world insights that show why a model-centric approach is key to modern engineering success. Takeaways Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is essential for modern engineering. Cross-domain collaboration is crucial to avoid integration issues. Traditional document-based practices are no longer sufficient. Models provide a real-time view of system interactions. Silos in decision-making lead to repeated engineering problems. Understanding relationships between components is key to success. Integration challenges arise from miscommunication between teams. The complexity of systems requires a shift to model-based practices. MBSE helps in managing the exponential growth of software lines of code. Real-world examples demonstrate the effectiveness of MBSE. Show links Mark Sampson's LinkedIn INCOSE Show slides
