  Contract services for the automotive and in-vehicle sectors.(15)

  Electronic components and devices, including ECUs, installed in automobiles are expected to be used in harsh environments. International standards (such as IEC-Q100, VDA, IATF16949) as well as unique standards set by domestic and international automobile manufacturers are required for installed components and units. On the other hand, in the development of in-vehicle software, there is an increasing need to comply with 'Automotive SPICE,' a development process model specialized for the automotive industry, or to meet new ordering conditions. If you have any of the following concerns, please feel free to consult with us: - I want to assess the environmental durability of components to be used in new products in advance. - I want to conduct multiple tests at once, but I can't find a contractor. - I don't know which standards to use for testing. - I want to immediately conduct tests in accordance with quality standards for automotive components and devices. - I have been asked by a supplier to meet Automotive SPICE compliance requirements.
