Leverage Our Expertise
ACCELERATE DELIVERY AND STAY AGILE
Manufacturers and other ecosystem players can benefit from Aptiv's global footprint, solution accelerators and at-scale processes. Our long history of managing software platforms, developing applications and validating systems for software-defined vehicles make us an ideal partner for a wide range of projects.
Software Lifecycle Maintenance
SUPPORT SOFTWARE-DEFINED VEHICLES THROUGHOUT THEIR LIFECYCLE
Keeping Android, Linux and Zephyr platforms secure and production-ready requires ongoing attention. Common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs), kernel and driver updates and aging software versions all demand specialized expertise that can be difficult to maintain in-house. With Aptiv and Wind River, companies get one partner for application development, platform maintenance and long-term lifecycle support – helping reduce engineering effort, security risk and compliance burdens while maintaining platform stability over time.
LEARN MOREVehicle Intelligence
Warranty costs rise as vehicle complexity grows. Aptiv and Wind River use data science and AI to transform vehicle and operational data into actionable insights, accelerating root-cause analysis, improving product quality, and identifying issues across regions and models before they become larger problems.
- Warranty analytics with root-cause analysis and failure-mode modeling
- AI-driven claim triage to classify, validate and escalate claims faster
- Predictive maintenance and uptime modeling, including remaining-useful-life estimates
Validation and Verification
Testing and validating software-defined vehicle features requires significant time and resources. Hardware-in-the-loop testing takes time to deploy, test cycles can run for weeks and global testing processes often lack transparency. Aptiv and Wind River provide proven simulation and validation services at scale, spanning model-, software-, hardware-, and vehicle-in-the-loop testing.
Speed up testing timelines, reduce costs and identify software issues before vehicles reach production.
Services include:
- SiL solutions built on virtual ECUs and recommendations for low-cost HiL setups
- Full-vehicle simulation, resimulation and scenario-based coverage testing
- OTA update verification and AI model validation for accuracy, robustness and safety
Architecture and Engineering
Software complexity continues to increase, driving up the cost and risk of every architecture decision. Legacy lock-in makes modernization harder, while mixed-criticality software must be integrated safely at scale. Aptiv and Wind River provide deep engineering expertise to help teams make informed design decisions, from silicon selection to safety certification.
Avoid costly hardware rework, reduce integration risk and accelerate the development of production-ready vehicle architectures.
Services include:
- Data-backed SoC selection and next-generation electrical/electronic architecture design
- SDV strategy advising, roadmap acceleration, and proof-of-concept development
- System integration testing and functional safety analysis with ISO 26262 documentation
Operational Excellence
Production programs depend on robust suppliers, processes and security practices. Tier 2 and consulting partners often do not have the expertise required for production-scale software programs. Aptiv and Wind River help organizations apply established engineering, security and operational practices across development programs.
Improve development efficiency, manage program costs and reduce production execution risk.
