The Digital Homologation Process

Creates transparency and speed

Digital Homologation Process

Automotive manufacturers (OEM) and suppliers (tier-n) are subject to world-wide strict standards such as UNECE regarding type approval. Various points in a company's value chain, from development to aftersales, must process vehicle data as part of homologation in order to obtain official type approval. In the absence of certification for the relevant market, new vehicle types, vehicles or components cannot be approved.

Digitalization of Your Homologation Process

The availability and processing of relevant supplier and own development data is a challenge for you? Your homologation process is prone to errors and not sufficiently transparent due to a large number of manual interfaces? The assessment of the homologation-relevance of individual changes is becoming too complex for you with an increasing number of variants?

Improve your homologation process through digitalization and learn how you get a firm grip on increasing complexity. Let's discuss together in an initial orientation meeting what added value you can achieve.

The msg UN Regulation Assessment

With the UN regulation assessment, we have developed an innovative approach to determine your company's level of maturity for compliance with UNECE WP.29 regulations. You receive recommendations for action and an implementation roadmap that is aligned with your certification partner. The impact on your processes and IT systems is recorded and evaluated in a structured way to find out which steps are still necessary for your certification.

The UN regulation assessment guides you to your individual implementation roadmap in four steps:

As an introduction into the topic, we recommend performing a Quick Check for €6,000. In a one-day workshop, we will introduce you to the regulation and then conduct an initial review with you afterwards.

ou have to comply with the requirements from one of these UN regulations but do not know how? Together, we identify recommended actions and create a structured plan for your successful certification.

Homologation, SDV, Cybersecurity

With the growing proportion of software in automobiles, the risk of a cyber attack is rising in parallel. This adds another dimension to the concept of vehicle quality – that of cybersecurity.

Homologation

The WLTP procedure, which has been in force since 2021, means that detailed data on vehicle variants and their optional equipment must be combined in the areas of aerodynamics and engine type. This means that new calculation algorithms are necessary and internal processes have to be reorganized. Read our article to find out what challenges but also opportunities this entails.

Digital Twin, Homologation

Vehicle customers and authorities expect highly automated driving functions to be thoroughly tested by the automotive manufacturer and to be safe. New test methods and regulations must be developed and established for this purpose. This is not feasible without a digital twin. Why? You can read about this in the following article.

Homologation, SDV, Cybersecurity

The UN regulation for cyber security management systems provides automotive manufacturers with a framework for identifying, assessing and managing cyber security risks in vehicle development. This involves the monitoring of cyber attacks as well as an effective response to and analysis of successful or attempted attacks.

Homologation

At the beginning of 2021, the 2nd stage of WLTP of UNECE will apply. We have identified three factors for successful implementation of the UNECE homologation requirements and compiled them for you.

Homologation, SDV

New UNECE regulation: Automotive manufacturers are under increasing pressure to implement this regulation (SUMS 11-2), which requires efficient control of E/E product data via ECU networks and the resolution of scheduling conflicts.

Homologation, SDV

From January 2021, a new UNECE regulation will come into force. Under this UNECE regulation, automotive manufacturers must introduce software update management systems and have them certified. Part of the certification is the RxSWIN, a software identification number.

Homologation, SDV

From January 2021, a new UNECE regulation will come into force that requires a software update management system for the type of approval of vehicles as part of the homologation process.We present our best practices for the successful implementation of software update management systems.
