Where Today Meets Tomorrow

Model Based Matters: Requirements-Driven Design in the Automotive Industry


Listen Later

Requirements-driven design makes it easier to align the product design efforts with the expectations of the end product. Models created from this approach can be efficiently decomposed to allow for collaboration across the engineering departments, the entire business and the supply chain. It is a part of model-based systems engineering (MBSE) that makes it possible to optimize the product by using simulation before the physical product is manufactured.


Today’s moderator, Nicholas Finberg of Siemens Global Marketing, is joined by Tim Kinman, Vice President of Trending Solutions and Global Program Lead for Systems Digitalization at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They are also joined by Ryan Wilkins and Tony Komar, two experts who’ll also be contributing to this important topic. They’ll help us understand requirements-driven design and the functional definition in model-based systems engineering.


In this episode, you’ll find out what requirements-driven design entails and its application in the automotive industry. We’ll discuss the importance of supplier collaboration and the role it plays in the product development process. Lastly, you’ll learn how agile development complements the goals of MBSE.
