Abstract In the dynamic aviation industry, Aerospace Industries grapple with the intricate challenge of certifying products amidst integration requirements from aerospace manufacturers and airworthiness regulations imposed by aviation authorities. This paper underscores the indispensable role of ModelBased Systems Engineering (MBSE) in addressing the multiphase issues inherent in our product complexity. The first focal point is the certification process, where Safran SEATS navigates the complexities imposed by aerospace manufacturers and stringent airworthiness regulations. This intricate certification process demands the strategic deployment of MBSE to streamline and enhance procedural efficiency. The second challenge arises from the abstract nature of style and perceived quality requirements articulated by diverse customers. With the goal of exceeding customer expectations and creating a genuine “WOW” effect, MBSE becomes instrumental in aligning product development with diverse and often oriented customers' needs. The third dimension of complexity stems from the variability in emerging requirements, where innovations swiftly become industry standards. MBSE provides a structured approach to handle this variability, ensuring adaptability and positioning products at the forefront of innovation. Additionally, we dissect the influence of Model‐Based Design (MBD) on design processes, shedding light on its transformative effects. Introducing the concept of a digital twin, we explore its significance in the aerospace domain. Real‐world implementations of digital twin technology examined through concrete examples from aerospace projects. Finally, the presentation addresses uncertainties surrounding program efficiency, a critical consideration in the intensely competitive seat market. This paper unfolds a compelling industrial testimony, showcasing Safran SEATS' journey in overcoming the complexity of digital transformation in Aerospace Industries. It provides solutions to intricate challenges posed by certification, customers' requirements, evolving industry standards, and economic competitiveness, encapsulating the transformative impact of MBSE in our pursuit of excellence.
