Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) environments are intended to support engineering activities of all  stakeholders across the envisioning, developing, and sustaining phases  of software-intensive products. Models, the machine-manipulable  representations and the products of an MBSE environment, support efforts  such as the automation of standardized analysis techniques by all  stakeholders and the maintenance of a single aurthoritative source of truth about product information. The model faithfully represents the final  product in those attributes of interest to various stakeholders. The  result is an overall reduction of development risks.
