P … We define the Process based on the standards (ASPICE, ISO26262, ISO21434)

M … We create a comprehensive Methodology to each step of the process

T … We develop appropriate Tools for efficient application of the process according to the defined methodology

The implementation of standards is the supreme discipline in the soft-

ware world. Safety standards for control software are therefore at the heart

of AVL’s projects with customers. “This gives us a competitive advantage

over start-ups,” explains Stefan Schmid from AVL Software and Functions,

referring to the company’s impressive track record.

Automotive Spice, or ASPICE®, is the established quality framework for

embedded software development in the automotive industry. It stands for

Automotive Software Process Improvement and Capability Determination

and was created to evaluate the performance of OEM suppliers’ development

processes. It helps teams to establish and maintain their process ­approach

to ensure quality, reliability, and deliverables.

With more than 20 years of experience in the successful development of

series-proven software products, AVL can competently accompany its

customers in the implementation and application of rule-compliant pro-

cesses, methods and tools.

“We ensure ASPICE compliance

right from the very first line of code

written”, says Georg Schwab, Man-

aging Director at AVL Software

and Functions. This becomes even

more important the more complex

the vehicle software requirements

are. “If there is an accident, you are

lost without accurate documenta-

tion,” he adds.

For AVL, dealing with ASPICE

is also a matter of differentiation.

We have developed a unique PMT

(Processes, Methods and Tools)

­approach to ensure that the best pos-

sible software product meets every

aspect of our customers’ require-

ments and regulatory standards.
