Elektrobit consulting – Enhancing your automotive software development

Imagine crafting an entire software-defined vehicle architecture within a six-week timeframe. That’s just what we did for a leading OEM. Together, we took on this challenge and set out to redefine their electronic/electric (E/E) vehicle infrastructure including high-performance central computes, zonal gateways, communication, connection to sensors, actuators, and cloud.

We structured our collaboration by reporting directly to the Senior General Manager, we embraced weekly iterations, and a rapidly shifting landscape.

The outcome? A consistent HW/SW architecture unlocking a faster time-to-market advantage, streamlined vehicle functions’ distribution, and a robust planning cornerstone for top management decisions. All within six weeks.

Another major OEM, eager to seize control over their in-vehicle infotainment systems (IVI) development, was seeking not only enhanced technology but also improved cost-effectiveness. Through collaboration with the OEM, a dedicated team composed of lean management consultants and technical experts was formed. We strategized an approach aligning with emerging trends in automotive software development.

Proposing fresh business models and pioneering collaboration methods with suppliers, we painted a new landscape for IVI architecture. And the results? Our team helped the OEM in building their own software competence and embracing the next generation of IVI platform development with confidence.

When it comes to automotive software consulting, our track record speaks for itself, and our 35 years’ worth of expertise is unparalleled in the industry.
