Trusted Innovation and Scaling Partner
Intelligent solutions on a global scale with region-specific supply chain
Operators need to trust that their advanced unmanned and autonomous platforms will work reliably in the most demanding operating environments, from congested airspace to distant locations far from modern infrastructure. For decades, Aptiv has been enabling intelligent automation while acting as the partner of choice for those looking to rapidly scale production.
Why Aptiv?
Leading drone and robotics companies choose Aptiv as a trusted innovation and scaling partner due to our three core strengths: a proven product portfolio; comprehensive integration, testing and validation expertise; and global manufacturing scale with resilient, region-specific supply chains.
Our technologies enable drone applications to take on increasingly complex and consequential roles, supporting real-time data processing, decision support, and autonomous functions while meeting rigid SWaP-C requirements.
Aptiv is a leader in integration, testing and validation for complex, mission-critical solutions, while supporting interoperability across heterogeneous fleets through open architectures, multi‑vendor integrations and rapid mission‑system upgrades.
Aptiv’s resilient, global manufacturing footprint includes regionalized supply chains for capex-light scaling.
Proven Product Portfolio
Aptiv has been delivering safety‑certifiable, deterministic software and compute and sensing solutions for mission-critical applications for more than three decades, establishing ourselves as a leader in multimodal perception, regardless of environmental conditions. We know what it takes to efficiently and effectively apply AI and machine learning to resource-constrained devices while optimizing the overall software and hardware architecture to meet rigid size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-C) requirements. Whether the requirements call for advanced perception, proven real-time operating systems, high-performance compute, high-speed or high-power interconnects, or cable management and protection, Aptiv has the integrated technologies for applications that cannot fail.
Integration, Test & Validation
As a Tier 1 systems integrator for some of the most complex, mission-critical embedded solutions on the planet, we have the tools, processes and people to support comprehensive integration and certification needs. Our systems are built for interoperability across heterogeneous fleets, supporting open architectures, multi‑vendor integrations and rapid upgrades over the complete service life.
Global Footprint
With more than 76 manufacturing locations globally, Aptiv has the necessary footprint to enable flexible, capex-light scaling for our customers. At the same time, we support program‑scale deployment, long‑term component availability, and lifecycle sustainment through our resilient, region‑specific supply chains, tailored to the local needs of our customers and the regions in which they operate, continuously monitored and enhanced through our industry-leading supply chain digital twin.
