Design Thinking

Digital Vehicle Products

In our team, software engineers are solution creators, strategic thinkers, and drivers of innovation in the mobility sector.

 


From design to implementation


We apply best practices and use cutting-edge technologies to develop software that meets the highest standards of:

  • Functionality
  • Efficiency
  • User experience

More than just writing code, our engineers build solutions that power the future — with vision, talent, and passion.

We take pride in fostering a culture of agility and innovation, empowering our teams to adapt quickly while ensuring continuous updates.

 


What we offer:

  • Agile methodologies to deliver fast, high-quality solutions

  • Teams focused on continuous improvement


 

The result? Fewer complications, more solutions that work.

We offer a secure, scalable, and efficient Cloud foundation to support automotive solutions.

 


We use the Cloud to:

  • Integrate systems
  • Store and process data
  • Access and analyze in real time

 

The result? Hassle-free vehicles — powered by our technologies that boost performance, scale effortlessly, and accelerate the development of smart solutions.

Ensuring everything works as it should is part of our DNA. That’s why we use the best tools to test every detail — before it reaches the users.

 


Our strengths:

  • Top-tier tools

  • Fewer errors, faster delivery

  • Reliable, road-tested software


 

The result? Satisfied users, product trust, and a digital experience that truly makes a difference.

 

Communication management in IT is at the heart of everything, ensuring smooth information flow between all involved parties.

 


The Secret to Success:

  • Seamless communication
  • Effective tools and strategies
  • Aligned teams, engaged stakeholders

 

The result? Faster decisions, greater efficiency, and projects that always run the way we want.

With CI/CD practices, we automate everything — from code to testing and delivery. This gives us faster updates, fewer errors, and products that are continuously improving.

 


What we offer:

  • We connect everything automatically: code, tests, and deployment
  • We release new features faster while always maintaining quality

 

The result? New features, without failures, and always on time.

Here, the combination of creative and analytical skills is essential. The goal is to understand others, find effective solutions, and create real impact.

 


What is Design Thinking?

  • User-centered approach
  • Balance of creativity and analysis

 

The result? Innovation, practical solutions, and a lasting impact that enhances the user experience.

 

Smart Cloud Factory

At Smart Cloud Factory, we drive industrial innovation.
We help make production processes smarter, more sustainable, and more efficient.

 


How?

  • We identify improvement opportunities together with production teams — and turn them into real value.

  • We manage technology projects from A to Z (from operations to IT).

  • We create and apply digitalization concepts that make a difference on the ground.

  • And we ensure everything runs at maximum efficiency.


 

All of this to accelerate digital transformation.

The installation procedure of datalogger measurement technology is conducted in two stages. These stages are the initial meeting and the zero check (referred to in German as the Startgespräch and Nullcheck, respectively). During the initial meeting, the scope of the measurement technology is determined based on the vehicle type, installed control units in the vehicle, test course and test indicator (EPKZ) set by the module managers. During the initial meeting, the measurement technology is installed in the test vehicles in accordance with the requirements and any anomalies are reported. These are rectified by the workshop during the zero check. During the zero check, the installation of the measurement technology and the data transmission from the vehicle are checked again.

The generated data during vehicle testing is recorded on SSD cards which are placed inside the dataloggers. After testing is complete, the SSD cards are read and the data is uploaded to IAV Merida Hub. This “clould” software platform stores the data of many test vehicles of different platforms and enables for easy access and to specifically convert datalogger raw data into different formats. Data is now ready to be analysed and provided to the VW stations across the world to further develop software and/or INTERNAL hardware features that will make vehicles safer, more reliable, efficient and competitive in the automotive industry.

Providing remote support to Volkswagen stations across the world and sharing our knowledge with different people from many cultures is a big part of the datalogger project only possible due to the international recognition of the Volkswagen brand. Effectively, as a team we are able to remotely troubleshoot any problems that may arise with the dataloggers and ensure their correct use. Furthermore, data can be accessed and extracted remotely, dataloggers can be assigned to vehicles and fleets and bespoke configurations with unique features and constraints depending on the country the vehicle is undergoing testing can be devised.
