Vision: Digital engineering is an integrated digital approach that uses authoritative sources of system data and models as a continuum across disciplines to support lifecycle activities from concept through disposal.
Mission: Sandia is undergoing transformation to achieve a digital engineering environment to meet the needs of national security and maintain global security. To achieve this transformation Sandia is using several capabilities, approaches, and disciplines.

MBSE is one pillar in the Digital Engineering Ecosystem, it serves as the backbone for systems engineering data
MBSE Vision: Radically transform design practices through the development and use of systems engineering models with an accelerated lifecycle
MBSE Mission: Utilize MBSE on every ND program by performing systems engineering in accordance with processes, developing new capabilities, and integrate with digital engineering practices to accelerate product realization
Values:
- Information over Artifacts
- Integration over Independence
- Expressiveness with Rigor over Flexibility
- Model Usage over Model Creation
