Stages helps ease your digital engineering transformation to address major trends.

Digital engineering plays a crucial role in aerospace and defense projects by revolutionizing the way systems are designed, developed, and maintained. Next-generation, model-based engineering (MBE) enables virtual prototyping and simulation, agile development, data-driven decision-making and other digital techniques along the entire product lifecycle.

 

Digital engineering process impacts

Most organizations in the aerospace and defense market have launched transformation initiatives to address the major trends and requirements in the market. All these initiatives have one thing in common: they change the way of work for participants and therefore change processes and command media. However, this transition cannot be efficiently accomplished by modifying hundreds of process documents. Command media and process descriptions must be fully digital, model-based, and seamlessly integrated with the engineering tools.
