AUTOMOTIVE

Autonomous driving, electrification and connectivity are the major innovation drivers in automotive, resulting in more complex functionality in addition to increasing safety requirements for software-based vehicle systems.

With expertise in automotive functional safety (ISO 26262), cybersecurity (ISO 21434), safety of the intended functionality (ISO 21448) and artificial intelligence ( ISO PAS 8800), CertX provides all services for the certification and homologation of dependable and trustworthy systems for future mobility.

CertX has an integrated, lean assessment procedure based on synergies between the standards to optimize the efficiency of the evaluation process without compromising the result quality.

We are at the leading edge when it comes to autonomous vehicles. We train your staff and assess the safety, cyber security and functional performance of your automotive product.

Product Assessment & Certification ISO 26262 and ISO 21448 (SOTIF)

Demonstrating compliance with the prevailing safety standards is mandatory for your product to be successful on the market. 

The required independence level for higher ASIL levels is hard to achieve without external support. CertX is providing assessment and / or confirmation reviews with the highest independence level I3.

The result is an assessment report specifying our methodology and the overall result without disclosing any of your IP, a compliance report with all details of our findings and our recommendations for your internal use.

In case your product is being used across several applications or clients it is usually more efficient to certify it as a Safety Element out of Context (SEooC). In addition to the assessment results you will get a certificate demonstrating the right ASIL level and ongoing adherence towards your all clients and applications.

CertX uses the safety case methodology to assess and certify products according to the ASIL (Automotive Safety Integrity Level). Each product is unique therefore dedicated requirements for every product will be identified at different levels:

  • Functional Safety Management
  • Concept Phase
  • System Level
  • Hardware Level
  • Software Level
