Modular Model Based Enterprise

Gain valuable insights, learn from real-world case studies, and discover how companies across the globe are implementing Model Based Definition to drive digital transformation.

Modular Model Based Enterprise

Jakob Åsell, CTO, Modular Management

Time: 15:30 – 16:05, Day 1 (Parallel Session)

In the context of a Model-Based Enterprise (MBE), modularization plays a pivotal role in achieving data continuity and operational efficiency. A Module represents a strategic, functional building block designed with standardized interfaces to support scalable product architectures. To address specific customer needs and meet business objectives, Module Variants are defined and controlled by configuration rules that ensure consistency and reusability. These Module Variants become the backbone of digital product structures and serve as key enablers of the digital thread—linking engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, and service functions through a common source of truth. By embedding Module Variants into the MBE framework, organizations can streamline product definition, enhance cross-functional collaboration, and improve decision-making throughout the product lifecycle. Jakob will share how this approach is being implemented in practice, and how it supports a robust MBE implementation across business functions.

About the Presentations

The presentations at the Nordic Model Based Enterprise Forum 2025 bring together real-world expertise, strategic insight, and hands-on experience from leading companies and organizations across industries. Each session is designed to demonstrate how Model Based Definition (MBD) is being implemented in practice — from engineering and quality assurance to manufacturing and enterprise-wide integration.

Speakers share success stories, lessons learned, and technical approaches that highlight both the benefits and the challenges of transitioning to a model-based workflow. These presentations provide attendees with the opportunity to explore tested strategies, innovative tools, and collaborative methods that are shaping the future of digital product development.

Whether you’re looking to understand the foundational value of MBD or explore advanced applications like CAM automation, metrology integration, or tolerance analysis, the sessions in this forum are curated to offer insight, inspiration, and actionable takeaways.
