Transportation
New standards, new processes
Transportation industry companies are bound by high standards like the new CENELEC standards EN 50xxx in the railway sector or the DO-178B/ED-12B "Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification" standard for avionics. New systems in this industry are increasingly dominated by software, which makes it necessary to adjust or extend the established procedures. This is especially important in the automotive sector, which has recently seen a growing number of recalls due for example, to airbags that do not inflate or problems with anti-lock braking systems. The processes are often not fully matured, in spite of the dramatic increase in the amount of software required for the functions of a vehicle.
SQS can help to optimise the quality of the software, thus closing this gap. We can help you when it comes to the definition of suitable software processes, authentication measures and tests, as well as effective project management and systematic change and configuration management. Whether you are an automotive, avionics or railway manufacturer or operator, SQS is the partner for you.
