Tools to support Systems Engineering processes are very enterprise oriented. Often, they also vary by sub-discipline and product type. Requirements management tools are often similar to IBM Rational DOORS http://www-03.ibm.com/software/products/en/ratidoor http://www-03.ibm.com/software/products/en/ratidoor SysML is a modeling language, similar to UML, that some organizations use for Systems Engineering http://sysml.org http://sysml.org Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is the general term for modeling systems (for example with SysML) and then applying computer analysis tools to those models to perform Systems Engineering optimizations. Google Project Ara made use of MetaMorph Software Tools to help module designers perform PCB layout, component integration, module pricing estimation, package fit check, module performance, and specification compliance. See http://www.metamorphsoftware.com http://www.metamorphsoftware.com and https://webgme.org https://webgme.org In general, there is a lot of opportunity to modernize MBSE tools and bring them to a wider audience.
