Advanced digital thread practices can significantly impact Defense & Intelligence systems, from conceptual design and procurement to deployment and disposal. Model-Based Acquisition enables precise specifications, rapid evaluation of vendor solutions, model validation, “what-if” analysis, and trade studies at the systems engineering level.

At the product design level, Intercax has collaborated with customers across aerospace, land, marine, and IT applications. A federation of models across engineering domains supports use cases such as product variant evaluation, networked component integration, and legacy system documentation. Syndeia, Intercax’s digital thread platform, delivers unprecedented cross-domain traceability while ensuring controlled access to sensitive system information.

Syndeia,  the digital thread platform for digital engineering, provides capabilities to:

1. Connect to enterprise PLM, ALM, databases, requirements management, and other version-managed systems.
2. Query and search models include bill-of-materials, requirement structures, CAD, database tables, and records.
3. Generate, connect, compare, and sync models, such as system architecture (SysML V2) to/from PLM bill-of-materials, Simulink, and Database/Excel.
4. Visualize all model-based connections using interactive charts.
