The Systems Engineering Reference Enterprise Architecture (SEREA)
Join us for an insightful presentation on the Systems Engineering Reference Enterprise Architecture (SEREA), a model designed to support enterprises in adopting the Unified Architecture Framework (UAF). SEREA is an architecture description modeled in UAFML and based on ISO 15288, providing an operational-level template for any enterprise that develops, uses, maintains, or retires systems.
This presentation will explore how SEREA facilitates UAF adoption by delivering a standardized enterprise architecture that enhances both internal and external communication. We will demonstrate how operational activities can be traced from high-level vision and drivers, through operational and resource architectures, down to the specifications of enabling and supporting systems.
Additionally, we will show how SysML can be used in combination with SEREA to extend this traceability further—linking architectural descriptions all the way to component specifications. This comprehensive approach enables AI agents to interpret structured data about the enterprise and its systems, providing essential context to support enterprise operations.
Notably, SEREA is being developed collaboratively within a working group of the Gesellschaft für Systems Engineering (GfSE), fostering ongoing knowledge sharing among systems engineering professionals.
Tobias Kaiser works as an Industry Process Specialist of the CATIA Magic Cyber Systems team for Dassault Systèmes. He holds a bachelor‘s degree in Mechanical Engineering, a Master’s degree in Systems Engineering, and a SysML Model User OMG certification. The main focus of his work includes system architecture, MBSE application, and, more recently, enterprise architecture - especially using UAF. He is a member of the GfSE SE pain points working group and the GfSE UAF working group.
Hugo Ormo is an engineer that studied at ETSEIB in Barcelona. He works as a consultant for a global IT consulting company, focusing on transforming organizations towards Systems Engineering and MBSE. He is a certified GfSE Level A professional and has been training as a GfSE instructor since 2022. In this role, he has already trained more than fifty individuals at GfSE Level B and C. On a voluntary basis, he leads the GfSE UAF working group and is also a member of the OMG UAF working group.
