Making Sense of ASQMS: A New Standard for Automotive Software Quality

The Next Automotive Software Standard Is Here. Are You Ready for ASQMS?
The shift toward software-defined, new energy, and intelligent vehicles is transforming the automotive industry. As vehicles become more reliant on complex software to power advanced features, autonomy, and connectivity, the need for robust quality management has never been greater. To meet this challenge, China’s CACPQSP introduced the Automotive Software Quality Management System (ASQMS).
