Challenges

The automotive industry is undergoing a rapid transformation with autonomous vehicles, electrification, and evolving regulations, all while managing high-volume production, global supply chains, and stringent compliance requirements. As personal, public, and high-speed transportation systems converge, seamless integration and data continuity become critical. A digital thread enables end-to-end traceability, real-time collaboration, and interoperability across engineering, manufacturing, and operations, breaking down data silos and ensuring regulatory compliance. By connecting systems and stakeholders, it accelerates innovation, optimizes production, and enhances the safety, reliability, and sustainability of next-generation mobility solutions.

The Role of Digital Thread

Automotive engineers rely on digital thread technology to unify structure, behavior, requirements, and analysis across disciplines and tools. The Syndeia platform enables cross-vendor interoperability, ensuring seamless traceability between market demands, technological advancements, regulatory requirements, and vehicle design. It supports product line engineering and enhances system-wide analysis, including autonomous vehicles, within broader ecosystems such as smart roads, energy infrastructure, and interconnected transportation networks.

What is MBSE ?

Modern engineering uses computer models and systems engineering (SE) is following this pattern. The basis of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is that the system can be captured in a single unified computer model, a single source of truth from which all required SE views and artifacts can be generated. Good MBSE practices can reduce errors and ambiguity, shorten development times, and improve collaboration between disciplines.
