Evaluation of SysML v2 for use in Collaborative MBSE between OEMs and Suppliers - a presentation made at PLM Road Map Europe 2025

The new SysML v2 Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) standard has been assessed by the AD PAG MBSE Collaboration working group as a potential solution to improve collaboration in engineering models and avoid tool-vendor lock. SysML v2 is a new standard approved in 2025 by the Object Management Group. The AD PAG working group comprises major aerospace & defense Original Equipment Manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers who are interested in SysML v2 as a potential enabler to work together more effectively within the engineering modeling environment. This presentation originally made at PLM Road Map Europe 2025 offers a summary of the project report, highlighting the benefits of SysML v2, identified gaps that challenge collaboration, as well as external considerations that need to be addressed in the adoption and roll-out of SysML v2. SysML v2 tools were not yet available at the time of this investigation; therefore, the conclusions are based on analysis of the SysML v2 standard and engagements with some of the major SysML v2 solution providers.
