OMNEX VIRTUAL CUSTOMER CONFERENCE 2024
This session addresses challenges in Electric and Autonomous Vehicle development, including fragmented processes, safety and cybersecurity compliance complexity, and collaboration bottlenecks.
Key Challenges in EV/AV Development
- Fragmentation in Development Processes: Standalone IT systems lead to inefficiencies and inconsistencies across workflows.
- Increasing Safety and Cybersecurity Requirements: Compliance with standards like ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434 is complex and time-intensive.
- Lack of Reusability: Teams often recreate documentation and workflows for similar projects, wasting time and resources.
- Collaboration Bottlenecks: Miscommunication and delays frequently occur in globally distributed teams and supply chains.
The Solution: EV-AV Platform
Omnex’s integrated EV-AV Platform consolidates over 400 standalone and 200 integrated work products into a unified system, covering DFMEA, PFMEA, safety plans, control plans, hardware-software interfaces and testing plans — with built-in compliance providing pre-configured templates and automated processes for ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434 standards, enabling reusable frameworks and global teamwork capabilities.
Key Features and Benefits
- Efficiency: Eliminates fragmented processes and accelerates development cycles.
- Quality: Guided workflows and reviews ensure high-quality deliverables.
- Scalability: Supports small teams and enterprise-level operations alike.
- Global Collaboration: Enables distributed design supply chains to function cohesively.
