Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What do you deliver as part of an MBSE (Model-Based Systems Engineering) engagement?

As part of an MBSE engagement, we deliver system-level engineering artifacts tailored to your program needs. Depending on scope, this may include stakeholder and user interviews, operational analysis, system analysis, requirements decomposition, logical architecture, and physical architecture using MBSE principles such as ARCADIA and tools like Capella. We can deliver end-to-end MBSE work, specific subsets aligned to your internal team’s capabilities, or structured reviews and feedback on your existing processes, models, and artifacts.

Our traceability-based QA service establishes end-to-end traceability from requirements through verification. We ingest and structure requirements, decompose requirements and interface definitions, derive test cases, and develop verification strategies and test plans. We also provide independent verification and validation (IVV), ensuring all verification activities trace back to defined requirements. This approach aligns well with standards and practices used in regulated and safety-critical environments, including aerospace and space programs.

Our embedded engineering services support multiple layers of the system, depending on project needs. This includes embedded software development, driver and application development, payload software, user terminal software, ground or landing station software, test and QA activities, and end-to-end system verification. Our work often supports space and satellite systems, telecom payloads, and mission-critical embedded platforms.

We frequently support organizations that already have internal MBSE or systems engineering capability. In these cases, we contribute domain-specific space and telecom expertise, act as an independent reviewer, and provide structured feedback to ensure architectures, processes, and artifacts are complete, consistent, and aligned with MBSE and systems engineering principles. This second-eye review model is especially valuable before major design reviews, integration phases, or external audits.

We deliver system-level engineering across the space system lifecycle. This includes requirements engineering, operational analysis, system analysis, logical and physical architecture, system architecture definition, traceability-based QA, and verification. Where appropriate, we also support integration activities and development of selected decomposed physical components, including payloads, user terminals, and ground or landing station elements.

We support multiple engagement models depending on program needs. Most engagements are time-and-material–based, often with defined limits or guardrails to maintain cost visibility and control. In some cases, we begin with a fixed-price phase to help define scope, architecture, or approach, and then transition to time and material for execution. This allows flexibility while avoiding open-ended or difficult-to-manage budgets.

Yes. Our work commonly aligns with industry standards and practices used in space, aerospace, and mission-critical systems, including MBSE frameworks, ARCADIA methodology, Capella modeling, and assurance concepts related to standards such as DO-178C and ARP4754A. We focus on traceability, verification readiness, and audit-friendly engineering artifacts.

We focus on space and satellite systems, including telecom payloads, user terminals, ground and landing stations, and related mission-critical systems. Our work spans systems engineering, MBSE, traceability-based QA, IVV, and embedded engineering across the full system lifecycle.
