Not to mention hitting moving regulatory targets and the ever-present pressure to quickly deliver a complete, industry-compliant product to market.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re talking about a technology that not long ago was the stuff of science fiction; autonomous vehicles, systems for which code failure can lead to actual tragedy.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Bringing Teams (and Data) Together<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When developing for a system with so many moving parts, every member of the development team using the same processes and platforms is a must to ensure safety compliance. To hedge against mistakes, teams must also be in sync, irrespective of core skill set or geography.<\/p>\n<p>For companies whose businesses are based on constant innovation, getting all of these ducks in a row is a challenge.<\/p>\n<p>As we detail at length in our recent paper, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jamasoftware.com\/resource\/driving-compliance-functional-safety-standards-software-based-automotive-components\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Driving Compliance with Functional Safety Standards<\/em><\/a>, a Fortune 100 semiconductor company recently faced many of these hurdles, and deployed Jama Software to help clear them.<\/p>\n<p>The semiconductor company knew this, and put together an integrated ALM solution supporting ISO 26262 compliance with Jama Software at its core.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Simplification as a Productivity Booster<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Standardization of processes includes reducing oversized sets of tools and applications into a manageable roster of best-in-class solutions. Eliminating cumbersome or unnecessary apps enhances process efficiency for development teams at every stage.<\/p>\n<p>The ALM solution they deployed enabled end-to-end requirements, functions, implementations and tests throughout the life-cycle process, as well as providing support for new functional safety and quality regulations, ensuring development teams can pass product audits and avoid costly delays due to rework.<\/p>\n<p>The result was a well-oiled development machine. By hitting requirements the first time, the semiconductor company was able to accelerate its development cycles, delivering better finished products while achieving higher customer satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p>Incorporating the proper toolsets to track development and document product safety compliance\u2014 a necessary step to avoid being buried by the challenges in a complex development project\u2014 further facilitated the process.<\/p>\n<p>The standardization of toolsets and platforms meant that with each handoff on the developer chain, the teams could see their counterparts were all following processes as laid out by functional safety requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Projects of this magnitude inherently put pressure on developers to keep their eye on the prize without being distracted by the countless shiny objects drifting across their line of sight. By simplifying processes, homing in on the best tools for the job and facilitating communication with partners and consortiums, development teams can tend to their own gardens.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jamasoftware.com\/resource\/driving-compliance-functional-safety-standards-software-based-automotive-components\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25285 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/static.jamasoftware.com\/www\/imports\/2017\/10\/2.png\" alt=\"Download &quot;Driving Compliance with Functional Safety Standards for Software-Based Automotive Components&quot; Now\" width=\"999\" height=\"356\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<input class=\"fooboxshare_post_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"25575\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jama Software offers automotive electronics providers better, faster product definition, change management and functional safety verification.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":93,"featured_media":54619,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[848],"tags":[243,318,186,376],"industry":[],"class_list":["post-25575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-functional-safety","tag-automotive-electronics-systems","tag-functional-safety","tag-iso-26262","tag-semiconductors"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.1 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Integrated ALM Solution | End-to-end Requirements | Jama Software<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A fortune 100 semiconductor company put together an integrated ALM solution to support ISO 26262 compliance.
