  • Partners empower systems engineers with best-in-class SysML v2 modeling Solutions
  • New Systems Modeler for SysML v2 Powered by IBM Rhapsody Systems Engineering for next-generation MBSE

Plano, Texas, USA – June 02 2025  – Siemens Digital Industries Software announced today Systems Modeler for SysML® v2 Standard software, part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, to address the complexity of products that feature mechanical, electrical, electronic, and software components. Systems Modeler for SysML v2 offers an intuitive, web-based solution that enables engineers to develop smarter, more competitive and more innovative products.

Representing the next milestone in Siemens’ collaboration with IBM to deliver best-in-class model-based systems engineering (MBSE) software, Systems Modeler for SysML v2 is powered by IBM Rhapsody® Systems Engineering. The new software, part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, fully supports the SysML v2 open standard and leverages the two organizations’ decades of systems engineering expertise. SysML v2 is a new modeling language for the specification, analysis, design, verification and validation of a broad range of complex systems and systems-of-systems.

“By supporting the latest SysML v2 standard, we’re combining cutting-edge systems engineering best practices with a modern user experience and streamlined cross-domain workflows,” said Frances Evans, senior vice president, Lifecycle Collaboration Software, Siemens Digital Industries Software. “We are empowering engineers to work more efficiently, align across domains, and accelerate the development of complex systems.”

"We are proud to partner with Siemens in empowering systems engineers to leverage advanced SysML v2 modeling while enabling seamless collaboration across software, mechanical, and electrical domains,” said Melissa Modjeski, vice president, IBM Software - Security, Lifecycle Management and B2B Integration. “We are delivering a truly integrated model-based development process that sharpens our clients’ competitive edge.”

System Modeler for SysML v2 is designed to improve collaboration among engineering teams involved in complex product development. It uses SysML v2 models to exchange data between different software applications and engineering domains, such as electrical and mechanical engineering.

Systems Modeler for SysML v2 will offer integration with Siemens’ Teamcenter Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software. The integrated solution connects the systems-focused digital thread based on open standards, integrating data and processes across mechanical, electronics, electrical and software. This streamlines the transfer of system designs to downstream teams for domain-specific development while maintaining full traceability. Additionally, it supports comprehensive change management across the entire project, ensuring all modifications are tracked and coordinated efficiently.
