XLDyn overcomes the "hard to use, I don't see the benefit" objection to MBSE
Our Unique Value Proposition
1. We support MBSE without requiring multiple software tools
Lower cost of ownership and training vs. enterprise level MBSE alternatives
Significantly easier to learn and use for product design engineers |
2. Easily facilitates model reuse with reduced engineering effort
Improves product team productivity
Promotes consistency of the design process Supports design and component reuse Project documentation becomes the byproduct of the product engineering process |
3. Collaborative Design Environment
Engineers use the XLSE integrated toolset for decision making In the process these decisions are captured for traceability Develop more robust, high-quality designs starting in conceptual design phase Reduces human errors and improves product team communication |
Enabling collaboration across Systems, Simulation, Product Development & Controls Engineering

Additional Information
- OmniV adds two tabs (XLSE and XL1D) to Microsoft® Excel Ribbon.
- SE Sever™is a part of XLSE. The two tabs contain a tool set for systems engineering based product development which includes creating SysML diagrams for requirements, constraints, use case, ibd, schematic diagrams and other elements used in Model-Based System Engineering.
- XLDyn® also has many design analysis tools such as XL1D simulation, FMEA, Domain Mapping, Design Analysis, DoE, State and Activity diagrams. Simulations (XL1D and integrated 3rd party simulation software) can be run directly from SysML diagrams and simulation results are automatically posted to a summary table.
- If you need to verify requirements with tools that are not integrated with XLDyn®, e.g. using tests, you can electronically send out work requests, and XLDyn® will create those work orders.
- XLDyn® will update the SysML diagrams with the latest simulation and test results automatically from the work request response.
