Unlocking the Win–Win of MOSA
From mandates to momentum Eric Alexander, Director of MBSE Services For too long, the Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) has been viewed as a compliance exercise. A box to check in a contract response. But MOSA is about more than mandates—it’s about momentum. By enabling modularity and openness, MOSA unlocks the innovation needed to outpace fast-moving adversaries, shifting markets and emerging technologies. It is the foundation for maintaining adaptive overmatch in both mi

Innovation in Motion: An 8-Week Blog Series
Innovation isn’t a milestone. It’s in motion. Eric Alexander, Director of MBSE Services Too often, organizations treat engineering innovation as static – a stack of documents, a siloed model, or a one-time review. But like a concrete truck, if the engine stops turning, the mix hardens and becomes unusable. To stay relevant, engineering must remain in motion: continuously adapting, integrating, and pouring out the foundations of future capability. Over the next eight weeks

Now a necessity -- Accelerating defense readiness through AI-enabled systems engineering
Katie Fisher, Chief Engineer The next generation of defense systems will not excel in modern warfare through hardware alone, but rather by how quickly and confidently we can design, validate, and deploy it. As mission complexity increases and multidomain coordination becomes the norm, traditional engineering approaches are unable to support today’s complex system of systems. The conflict in Ukraine has shown that using artificial intelligence (AI) in unmanned systems is a via

Moving Beyond Diagrams: How MBSE Enables Scalable Systems Thinking Across the Lifecycle
Daniel Reineke, President + GM For engineers working on large, complex projects, model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is more than just a different way to work—it’s a smarter way to manage the growing intricacy of systems design and the increasing complexity of modern systems. Many systems engineers are familiar with MBSE as an alternative to document-based processes. The real power of MBSE, however, comes from helping teams work together better, track changes more easily,
