Automotive SPICE® Assessments
preparation, execution, and follow-up
| Industry | Automotive, passive safety |
| Methodology | Assessment: ASPICE®, ISO/IEC 33000 series Development: V-Model |
| Technologies and tools | ASPICE®, ISO 26262, ISO 21434, AUTOSAR Classic Platform |
The project
A global market leader in passive vehicle safety technology is a Tier 1 supplier to several premium automotive manufacturers (OEMs) and supplies, among other things, seatbelt pretensioners and steering wheels. To monitor project status and ensure product quality, the OEM requires regular process assessments in accordance with Automotive SPICE® (Software Process Improvement and Capability Determination). In this context, the product development process for software-defined systems is examined using the ASPICE® process reference model, and potential deviations and corrective measures are identified.
The develop group was commissioned to conduct several ASPICE® assessments across various projects to both initially measure process quality at the Tier 1 supplier and determine the effectiveness of improvement measures.
Our responsibilities
- Planning assessments and coordinating the scope of assessments with the OEM and the customer, particularly with regard to the selection of instances
- Conducting assessments through on-site and remote sessions
- Identifying measures for process improvement
- Preparing assessment reports and evaluating weaknesses (risks) and opportunities (potential for improvement) in processes
- Validating the improvement measures derived from the results

Frequently asked questions about Automotive SPICE® assessments
Why are Automotive SPICE® assessments important for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers?
Automotive SPICE® assessments help OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers objectively evaluate the quality and maturity of their development processes. Companies gain transparency regarding risks, process weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement, and can more reliably meet compliance requirements, quality goals, and project objectives.
What are the benefits of structured process improvements following an Automotive SPICE® assessment?
Structured improvement measures reduce technical risks, enhance the traceability of development processes, and increase quality, efficiency, and planning reliability in the long term. Companies benefit from more stable development workflows, lower follow-up costs, and improved audit and compliance capabilities.
How does the develop group support companies in preparing for and conducting ASPICE® assessments?
The develop group supports companies from assessment preparation through execution to follow-up. This includes process analyses, interview planning, risk and vulnerability assessments, as well as concrete measures for sustainable process improvement – tailored to international automotive projects and OEM requirements.
How does the develop group assist with complex international automotive projects?
The develop group supports globally distributed development teams with structured assessment methods, flexible planning, and years of automotive experience. This enables efficient coordination of global projects, realistic process evaluations, and the sustainable implementation of improvement measures within the company.
