Automotive electric/electronic (E/E) part development projects where it is essential to adopt rapidly-changing technologies and ensure collaboration among multiple organizations highlight the importance of not only product quality but also process quality. Accordingly, European OEM makers (VW, BMW, Porsche, Daimler, Audi, and the like) require automotive E/E parts suppliers to comply with A-SPICE or other equivalent quality standards as one of the basic qualifications for standing any chance of winning their projects. Furthermore, the OEM makers even assess the compliance of their parts suppliers directly or have them submit assessment results produced by senior assessors certified by iNTACS.

SOLUTIONLINK has implemented processes, delivered coaching programs for hands-on internalization, extended support for customers in connection with assessment by OEM, and performed assessment (CL1~3) to enable customers to meet A-SPICE requirements of various global OEM makers (VW, Porsche, Volvo, Daimler, JLR, etc.). SOLUTIONLINK delivers consulting services, harnessing such knowledge and experience and catering for customer-specific needs of applicable projects.

The automotive industry has evolved around E/E components and associated embedded systems for the past three decades. As onboard ECUs are used in greater number and increasingly networked, functional safety of embedded systems in automobiles has become extremely critical. At the same time, ever-increasing complexity of automotive electronic control systems and distribution of E/E component development across multiple suppliers has resulted in greater needs for standardization in favor of improved efficiency of development processes and cost-saving benefits. Accordingly, the ISO (International Standard Organization) has published the ISO 26262 – international automotive functional safety standard – in a bid to prevent accidents resulting from automotive E/E system failures.

SOLUTIONLINK has a pool of specialized consultants well versed in ISO 26262 consulting knowledge as well as FSM-certified process assets. SOLUTIONLINK also has worked on many different functional safety consulting tasks and assessment projects. Based on such extensive assets, SOLUTIONLINK delivers a series of E/E system engineering services including design/development, verification, reserve engineering, etc. as well as implementation of functional safety system and conformance to global OEM makers’ quality audit criteria.

SOLUTIONLINK offers a service model named Quality Management Office (QMO™) to customers and thoroughly manages the entire spectrum of outsources project on behalf of a customer from the customer's perspective. This service model ensures clear visibility into project progress and basic quality.

To enable Korean suppliers to serve increasing number of global OEM customers, SOLUTIONLINK supports such suppliers with optimized software engineering technology through its global QMOTM service so that specific quality activities of each participating organization can be properly planned and executed.

Application/Product Lifecycle Management is an essential success enabler for business organizations trying to bolster up competitive age and innovate business management.

SOLUTIONLINK offers ITSCOPE as an ALM/PLM solution which is customizable as per customer requirements. ITSCOPE provides functions to define and monitor essential activities in product lifecycle from development/manufacturing concept phase to decommissioning and recycling, supporting EAI for optimum business environment.

Dynamically changing business environment, growing complexity of system development, and need for development of price-competitive SW have led the automotive industry to call for innovation beyond the legacy stereotype of SW development processes. These changes have resulted in rising interest in “Agile” method referring to an aggregation of various values and principles to develop SW in a rapid, flexible, and adaptive manner. Agile method is not a single methodology but a pool of values and principles required for developing SW in the best possible manner.

Leveraging extensive process improvement consulting services for a variety of development environments, SOLUTION delivers consulting services to enable successful application of Agile method in automotive domain, identifying improvement opportunities, developing improvement plan, and coaching on how to apply the method in the field.
