Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) for Industrial Assets

"When complexity demands a single source of truth."

The Challenge

"Our capital project has too many documents, versions, and silos. We're losing control of requirements, reliability targets, and contractual obligations."

Our Solution

We implement Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) principles to create a living digital model that integrates functional architecture, physical breakdown, reliability logic, operational modes, and contract interfaces.

This model becomes the authoritative reference across engineering, procurement, operations, and finance — preventing misalignment and rework.

Key Features:

Full traceability from business objectives → system functions → component specifications → contracts

Every requirement is linked to its source and downstream implementation.

Integration of RAM models (Fidelis) within system architecture

Reliability, availability, and maintainability are not separate analyses — they're embedded in the model.

Validation of feasibility using constraint logic

Automated checks ensure that specifications are internally consistent and physically achievable.

Alignment with KIAME© execution framework

The model structure mirrors our staged execution methodology, ensuring continuity from design to operations.

One integrated model governing all decisions — from concept to commissioning.

Case Study

Renewable Fuels Production Facility – Advanced MBSE Implementation

Summary

Developed an MBSE framework for a green fuels plant, linking process design, reliability targets, and economic forecasting. Reduced engineering rework by 40% and ensured alignment between technical specs and LCC assumptions.

Behind the Scenes

  • Tools: SysML-inspired framework, Fidelis, DECA®
  • Methods: Causal modeling (PDEL®), requirement validation, interface management

Outcome

  • 40% reduction in engineering rework
  • One integrated model governing all decisions
  • Complete alignment from concept to commissioning
