project overview

aivato supported the development of a test equipment management (TEM) platform for software-defined vehicles, enabling end-to-end management of test environments across vehicle and cloud systems. The solution focused on integrating test benches, hardware, and test data into a unified platform.

By connecting vehicle and cloud infrastructures, the platform enables seamless end-to-end testing workflows and supports globally distributed engineering teams. The result is a scalable, standardized, and efficient testing environment for modern automotive development.

the challenge

  • Increasing system complexity due to:
    • Large number of testbenches, hardware components, and dependencies
    • Multiple locations and stakeholders
  • Lack of transparency:
    • No central view of hardware configurations and test data
  • Inefficient processes:
    • Manual coordination of test equipment and updates
    • Delays in provisioning and commissioning
  • Scalability issues:
    • Growing number of tests, updates, and variants
  • Data challenges:
    • Inconsistent or missing test data (e.g., VINs)

our approach & solution

  • Implementation of an end-to-end TEM platform
  • Structured into clearly defined work packages:
    • Test equipment & parts coordination
    • Testbench setup, update & maintenance
    • Jira-based workflow and data management
  • Establishment of a Single Source of Truth (Jira Service Desk)
  • Standardized and automated processes:
    • Testbench commissioning & updates
    • Test data management
  • System integration:
    • Seamless connection with SAP, Jira, and testbench systems
  • Delivery model:
    • Combination of onsite and nearshore teams
