The “Cercle CESAM”

System Architecture Working Group

ABOUT THE CERCLE CESAM

The CESAM Community has been developed by the CESAMES Association since 2010. Its objective is to share best practices in Enterprise Architecture and System Architecture. Through CESAM certification, it certifies the ability of players to implement these best practices. The CESAMES association has thus formed the largest community around the MBSE (today, more than 8,500 Professionals are trained or certified in the CESAM method). It relies on major partners, whether academic, institutional or professional.

The Cercle CESAM is a working group whose objective is to develop and share a pragmatic international system architecture standard and to apply it to each major industrial field. For the commercial benefit of its members. Today the Circle has about fifteen members, including ITER, Sagemcom, Safran (SHE, SAE, SED), Dassault Systèmes, Idemia, Airbus, Somfy.

The 2 areas of work of the Cercle are:

METHOD AND TOOLS

Formalization and sharing of applications of the CESAM method by major sectoral areas (case stud ies, good practices, method tools, etc)

PROFESSIONALIZATION

Contribute to the professionalization of the profession as a system architect to promote architects within their organizations.
