Abstract
Those attending the annual INCOSE MBSE Workshops may have noticed a move away from tool-type discussions to organization culture change discussions. INCOSE MBSE Initiative be-lieves that tools and technology are no longer the problem, organization adoption and culture issues are standing between you and MBSE benefit realization. MBSE-enabling organization change will require a systems approach to bring about significant culture changes to take ad-vantage of these MBSE tool solutions. A critical first step is knowing where your organization is in this journey. As one of the fundamental systems engineering (SE) tenets states, “define the problem before you solve it”.
