Replay Webinar About our Speakers

How familiar are the following statements to you and your organization?
  • Management teams, as well as the extended organizations, often do not understand the value that SMS brings to the table.
  • Products and related processes are becoming more complex.
  • Embedded systems are becoming the main cost driver.
  • Prototypes are becoming more expensive and impede time-to-market.
  • Risk and liability continue to increase.
  • There is an ever-increasing demand for more stakeholder flexibility and choices, including products as a service.
  • Knowledge about SMS, Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE), and related domains is limited or even non-existent in many organizations today.

During a webinar last July, we introduced Systems Modeling and Simulation (SMS). The approach presented leveraged a common systems engineering and product data model (Model-Centric Systems Engineering) that encompasses benefits, requirements, platform, program, project, system definition, product structure, lifecycle, and configuration-management capabilities. These are the key enablers needed to reach higher systems modeling maturity levels and, in turn, help a company to reach and maintain a highly competitive position within the industries it serves.

It is critical to recognize that the surrounding ecosystem with its culture and behavior must be brought into play and linked appropriately. Knowledge about SMS and its elements are key to making this initiative part of a business’s overall digital transformation. This webinar focuses on the role a well-defined and executed SMS training and certificate program plays in improving an organization’s engineering maturity while helping speed the adoption of SMS and realize its full potential.

What will I learn?
  • You will understand the development challenges leading to a simulation-driven systems engineering environment.
  • You will learn how education improves the engineering maturity of organizations.
  • You will understand how SMS education can help businesses in their overall digital transformation.
  • You will become familiar with the SMS Training and Certificate Program offered by CIMdata and SMS_ThinkTank.
Who should attend?

Regardless of your current organizational digital transformation and simulation-driven systems engineering maturity, you will find this webinar to be timely and informative. It will provide useful guidance on how to make use of education on SMS. People from multiple levels in an organization will find the information pertinent and valuable. Included are engineering executives, senior and middle managers responsible for simulation-driven projects, CAE and systems engineering subject matter experts and practitioners, and IT support analysts for engineering.

During the webinar you’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
