Training

Systems Engineering & ASPICE

Requirements, architecture and traceability built to hold up in an ASPICE assessment and on the vehicle.

Duration
2–3 days
Format
On-site · modular · hands-on workshops on real cases

This training covers systems engineering as practiced on automotive programs, and the ASPICE process assessment model used to evaluate it. Content is adapted to the participants’ programs, process maturity and target capability level. Workshops use realistic cases: requirement sets, architecture extracts and traceability matrices similar to those met on actual projects.

Program

  1. 01

    Systems engineering in the V-cycle

    • Stakeholder needs, system context and operating modes
    • V-cycle phases, work products and reviews
    • Interfaces with mechanics, hardware and software
    • Variant and configuration management basics
  2. 02

    Requirements engineering

    • Requirement quality: atomic, unambiguous, verifiable
    • Functional, non-functional and interface requirements
    • Attributes, baselines and change control in DOORS
    • Workshop: rework a weak requirement set
  3. 03

    System architecture & allocation

    • Functional and logical architecture, static and dynamic views
    • Allocation to hardware, software and mechanical elements
    • Interface definition: signals, timing, CAN / CAN FD
    • Architecture trade-offs and recorded design decisions
  4. 04

    Integration, verification & traceability

    • Verification strategy and test specifications per level
    • Integration steps from MIL and SIL to HIL and vehicle
    • Bidirectional traceability and consistency checks
    • Coverage reporting for release decisions
  5. 05

    ASPICE process assessment model

    • Process groups SYS, SWE, SUP and MAN; assessment scope
    • Capability levels CL0–CL5; PA 1.1, 2.1 and 2.2 for CL2
    • Base practices, work products and information items
    • Main changes between ASPICE 3.1 and 4.0
  6. 06

    Assessment readiness workshop

    • Gap analysis on a realistic project extract
    • Evidence collection and interview preparation
    • Typical weaknesses and improvement actions
    • Action plan toward the targeted capability level
