Automotive Technology is Becoming More Complex; Your Process Assessment Doesn’t Have to Be

Automotive technology and supply networks are becoming more complex. This increases the possibility of failure triggered by a system design error or software implementation issue. With passenger and public safety at risk, prudent organizations will take advantage of standards such as ASPICE to ensure that products will be built on a solid foundation and an irreproachable process.

ASPICE, or Automotive SPICE, provides a framework for evaluating and improving the development and implementation of software and related systems embedded in motor vehicles. This framework can be extended to hardware engineering and mechanical engineering using processes through which requirements are defined and designs are developed.

ASPICE promotes order, control, and proper flow from the definition of requirements through design, testing, and verification.

When used properly, ASPICE offers:

Improved Quality and Reliability

Better Requirements Manageability

Reduction of Risk

ASPICE can reduce development costs. Using the standard’s processes, errors and defects will be found earlier in development when they are less costly to correct. Also, as the organization learns and standardizes internal processes, there is an opportunity to work more efficiently through avoidance of repeated errors, reuse of gained knowledge, and consistent approaches to the work.
