Like you, we deeply care about the safety and security of our loved ones as they live, move and interact in a world dominated by highly complex and interconnected electronics and software. We have made it our company’s core mission to educate and support industry partners like you to meet state-of-the-art industry safety standards like ISO 26262, ISO 21448, ISO 8800 and ISO 5083 to create a responsibly safe world together.
Every functional safety risk management and compliance journey is different. Each one is shaped around an organization’s starting point, circumstances, constraints and goals. Therefore, we will approach your program with an open mind to get a holistic understanding of your ISO 26262 risk landscape by evaluating product development processes, product design artifacts, stakeholder interactions, and your near and long-term goals. Subsequently, we will work collaboratively with your team to develop technical solutions and counter-measures to meet these goals.
Our team is dedicated to helping organizations across industries develop the highest levels of safety and security for their critical systems and processes.
Our EV engineering services drive the future of sustainable mobility, offering cutting-edge solutions to design, develop, and optimize electric vehicles for efficiency, performance, and environmental responsibility.
We won’t just stop there – we will be highly committed to helping you strengthen and innovate your product development processes, using lessons learned and methods developed together during our collaboration.
We perform a detailed Gap Analysis of our Client’s development processes and products against ISO 26262 for a specific vehicle program.
We perform a detailed Gap Analysis of our Client’s development processes and products against their desired compliance goals for a specific program.
We develop a practical action plan with our Client and work collaboratively to address gaps with knowledge sharing, technical solutions and counter measures to effectively achieve program goals.
We equip and work closely with our Client to prioritize and proactively address mission-critical and immediate risks that are discovered during the gap analysis.
We create lasting impacts for you by helping integrate process improvements, technical solutions and lessons learned for your program to optimize your product development framework.
We offer a comprehensive gap analysis workshop to evaluate your product development processes, product design, technical documentation and compliance arguments against your desired compliance goals, even when they involve multiple concurrent industry standards. We conduct the gap analysis in three steps:
This step allows us to get a foundational understanding of your product development processes and interfaces with external stakeholders/ partners with the help of a multiple-choice ‘discovery questionnaire’.
Your responses to the discovery questionnaire enables us to organize an effective virtual gap analysis workshop with your key management stakeholders to get a deeper understanding of your organization’s circumstances, challenges and goals.
The final step involves a highly tailored “due diligence” style gap analysis workshop with your engineering team to get a comprehensive understanding of the maturity of your product development processes, product design/ technical documentation and compliance evidence against the expectations in standards and regulations to meet your organization and/or program-specific compliance goals.
You are developing a complex, interconnected, safety-critical automotive product. Compliance with ISO 26262:2018, the state-of-the-art functional safety (FuSa) standard, is essential for your company to win business, build trust with your customers and cement long-term success in the market.
The ISO 26262 standard, like many other technical standards, does not provide prescriptive guidance and checklists. It can be very resource-intensive to navigate compliance as a development team, let alone build an independent organization to perform confirmation reviews. At SRES, we deeply understand complex automotive electronic systems and can successfully step in as your independent confirmation reviewers and ease your path towards compliance.
Leveraging deep expertise in these standards and a proven track record of conducting impartial and independent reviews, we can help you confirm you are on the right path. We ensure your key work products are aligned with your functional safety objectives before you proceed to a formal functional safety audit or assessment. By mitigating your risks early, you can accelerate your time-to-market with the timely completion of your safety artifacts during development.
We can support confirmation reviews for all work products in ISO 26262-2:2018, Clause 6.4.10, up to the most stringent ‘ASIL D’ level of integrity and the highest ‘I3’ level of independence, including:
We bring decades of hands-on automotive product development experience and an in-depth understanding of automotive standards to benefit your program. We offer a combination of safety and cybersecurity management support, process definitions and tailoring guidance, and most importantly, collaborative development of high quality technical work products to meet the demands of state-of-the-art automotive standards, including but not limited to, ISO 26262 (Automotive Functional Safety), ISO 21448 (Safety Of The Intended Functionality), ISO 21434 (Automotive Cybersecurity), and ISO/PAS 8800 (Safety and Artificial Intelligence in Automotive).
We are highly motivated to get compliance right the first time for your organization and your program, and to build up your team along the way for self-sufficiency on future programs. Whether you are a well established organization or a new entrant into the automotive industry, we are committed to making you competitive in the near-term and resilient in the long-term with consulting services across three pillars:
