Polarion’s Automotive Solutions and You

The increased ratio of electronics and software in vehicles drives innovation in the automotive industry but it also increases complexity and risk. An extremely competitive market and strict regulations force automotive OEMs and suppliers to implement true Quality Management systems for the entire lifecycle of their products. Polarion’s automotive solutions combine Polarion ALM with in-depth knowledge of automotive engineering standards and extensive experience with automotive customers and partners, delivered at a compellingly affordable total cost of ownership.

More software means more complexity to manage

The sheer mushrooming quantity of software code introduces a change rate 10 to 100 times higher than traditional automotive hardware engineering, a process shift that means new challenges for automotive OEMs and suppliers alike.

Overall process complexity is growing dramatically as hardware and software development must be married in an embedded software paradigm. Paradoxically, increased costs and time-to-market are rendered unacceptable by a super-competitive marketplace.

Functional Safety: real solutions, not hype

In hundreds of companies around the world, in automotive, aerospace, medical devices, and other industries, Polarion ALM has already proved that it can help teams meet the demands for increased productivity and competitiveness, while reducing overall costs. (Read what real-world customers are saying...)

With Polarion, you don’t waste tight budgets on costly point solutions and consultants to make them work together. You get one, fully unified, collaborative, web-based platform that most of our customers get up and running themselves in mere days. Then, secure audit-trails for all development lifecycle artifacts happen as a matter or course as people do their jobs every day, making audit headaches a thing of the past. This, along with fully integrated team communication and collaboration capabilities can help your company achieve compliance with diverse automotive industry standards faster while reducing costs and development time.

"Deutz AG was looking for a tool which could support us with bug tracking and change management in our SPICE Level 2 certification process in accordance with the V-Model process by "TÜV Rheinland". It was important that the V-Model based process should be easy to configure and implement in the tool. Polarion Application Lifecycle Management covered all these needs and requirements and provided in addition a full "Mechatronic System development" process including software build and release process in one repository. The decision for Polarion brought Deutz AG forward."
