ESTECO launches MBSE plugin to bridge requirements and MDO workflows

We’re excited to announce the release of the new MBSE plugin, a powerful tool that connects Dassault Systèmes’ Cameo Systems Modeler with VOLTA, our platform for simulation process and data management (SPDM) and multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO).
This integration marks a major step forward for model-based systems engineering (MBSE) workflows, enabling seamless connectivity between system architecture models and automated simulation processes. By bridging MBSE and MDO within a unified digital thread, the plugin helps engineering teams manage complexity, improve traceability, and streamline design iterations.

“With this plugin, we’re enabling a more connected and automated MBSE workflow. Our customers needed a solution that bridges the gap between system modeling and engineering simulation analysis, and this delivers exactly that.”

Roel Van De VeldeVice President of Aerospace & DefenseESTECO

Developed in response to growing demand — particularly in the aerospace and defense sectors — the plugin enhances traceability across requirements, analysis parameters, and simulation results directly within the SysML environment.
Key features include:

  • Direct integration with VOLTA repositories to retrieve, map, and link analysis projects and parameters.
  • Bi-directional traceability between Cameo system models and VOLTA-managed simulation results.
  • API-based authentication and advanced project metadata search for a streamlined user experience.

The MBSE plugin helps teams perform verification and validation earlier in the system development process, reducing rework, accelerating design cycles, and ensuring compliance with industry standards.
This launch reaffirms our commitment to open, interoperable digital engineering toolchains and to driving innovation across MBSE practices.
