Automotive
The evolution of the automotive industry and electronics is radically redefining how we conceive and use vehicles. The modern vehicle is no longer just a means of transport but can be considered an intelligent device capable of offering a wide range of services and functionalities through its increasingly numerous electronic systems and the software that powers them.
Software Engineering
Intecstechlogies’ expertise in software engineering, developed through decades of experience, enables it to support automotive clients in every phase of the software lifecycle. Whether dealing with real-time safety-critical ECU (embedded control units) or engineering support software tools such as automated test systems, Intecs can assist its clients from the initial concept phase to full deployment.
Quality
Thanks to its ISO 9001 certification and the maturity level recognized in compliance with the Automotive SPICE (Automotive Software Process Improvement and Capability Determination) standard, Intecs serves as a key reference for its clients among engineering companies capable of independently managing software development projects with the quality levels expected by OEMs.
Technological evolution
The technological evolution of the Automotive product, the explosion of electronics, and the resulting increase in software have led to the definition of new standards that determine the design paradigm.
The ISO 26262 standard for functional safety (FuSa) and ISO 21434 for cybersecurity are the new standards that regulate vehicle system design, extending their scope to include the necessary organizational structure.
These standards introduce the concepts of safety-by-design and security-by-design, highlighting that functional safety and cybersecurity must be considered from the early stages of product conception.
Intecs supports its clients in designing electronic components according to these standards, either by directly engaging in design or by providing experts for staff training and defining and implementing business processes.
Validation
The Automotive offering is developed along two main directions:
- Validation of the software subsystem in adherence to industry standards (integration tests, functional tests, unit tests), using the most widely used toolchains among industry players.
- Design and create automatic test systems (ATE) based on COTS components and hardware designed and built by the hardware prototyping laboratory. The creation of ATE begins with defining the validation process and implementing it through the design and development of both the software platform and the hardware interface to the device under test.
AUTOSAR®
Intecs Technologies was one of the pioneers in supporting its clients with the Autosar standard and contributed to the standard first as an Associate Member and later as a Prime Member of the Autosar Consortium. The experience gained over the years has allowed it to establish itself as the perfect partner for developing applications based on this technology and introducing it into new products.
