cultural andintellectual domination of the Europeans [6]. This historical has implications for how science,technological, and engineering knowledge has been created and the voices that have been left outof the creation of that knowledge [7]. Additionally, criticism of surface-level, performativedecoloniality (e.g. official statements) shows that there is room to create more practical,meaningful tools for moving from statements to action [8]. Little has been done in STEM fieldsto connect disciplines with decoloniality, thus the opportunity to focus tools for decoloniality insystems engineering is fruitful.Most curricula then recommend their set of stakeholder analysis that they think are appropriate totheir domains. Additionally, there is a

called digital transformation, and it has begun to be undertaken in industry, federalagencies and in health and medical service organizations [1].Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is a methodology that supports the management ofrequirements, design, analysis, verification, and validation of complex systems models - systemsconsisting of interoperating subsystems [4]. MBSE is expected to break the siloedresponsibilities and functions as it leverages digital tools and technologies to model and simulatesystems and represent them at different levels of abstraction to improve communication betweenstakeholders [5]. Graphical modeling languages have been proposed to support MBSE. TheSystems Modeling Language (SysML) is considered the industry

, one of them being “… a growing need for interdisciplinary andsystem-based approaches …”. As technology advances, there is an increasing demand for aninterdisciplinary approach to translate operational needs and requirements into a system solution thatsatisfies customer expectations and meets public acceptability [4].Such an approach requires engineers to be able to identify various stakeholders, understand their roles, andeffectively communicate with them to facilitate the identification and implementation of possible solutions.In the system engineering design process, identifying the right functional and non -functional systems

and requirements before 1proceeding with design and implementation. Frequently, clients encounter significant challenges whenattempting to determine the performance requirements of a proposed system. This underscores the criticalimportance of the problem definition and goal development phase in ensuring the ultimate success of theproject [1].Conventional engineering design commonly relies on an exclusively "bottom-up" approach, assuming thestatus quo and proceeding incrementally towards externally defined technological goals. While this methodallows for identifying short-term, narrowly focused solutions, it raises concerns regarding
