ALM Transformation for a Global Automotive Manufacturer

Client Profile

A flagship Indian automotive innovator ranked among the nation’s top three two-wheeler and

three-wheeler manufacturers, with a diverse portfolio spanning motorcycles, scooters, mopeds, autos, and electric vehicles. It drives R&D excellence through dedicated innovation centers and global partnerships. Strategically focused on EV mobility, connected vehicles, and agile product development, the organization prioritizes rapid, quality-driven engineering to meet evolving market demands

Current Business Challenges:

  • Siloed Collaboration:
    New product development, Engineering,
    homologation, and quality teams used isolated
    systems, delaying change impact analysis and
    approvals.
  • Lack of a Standardization process and
    Engineering Data collection Templates leads to
    inconsistency and difficulty in data management.

Client's Expected Outcomes:

  • Product Complexity:
    Proliferation of advanced features
    (connectivity, EV tech, safety systems)
    multiplied software/electronics dependencies.
  • Teams relied on disconnected tools
    (Excel/Word), causing version mismatches and
    errors.

Regulatory Overload

  • Compliance with ISO 26262 and ISO 21434, and
    export market homologation rules demanded
    end-to-end traceability.
  • Manual evidence gathering slowed audits and
    risked non-compliance

Accelerated Timelines:

  • Market pressure for faster releases,
    customized variants, and frequent updates
    strained R&D.
  • No reuse mechanisms for requirements/tests,
    duplicated efforts

EV Transition Challenges:

  • Legacy tools lacked capabilities for EV-specific
    hardware-software integration and traceability
