Component Functional Safety

Our Approach and Solutions

  • Functional Safety Management encompasses safety component planning, development agreements, monitoring, risk management, issue tracking, status reporting, and process customization.
  • Functional Safety Concepts involve eliciting safety requirements, designing component safety concepts, specifying requirements top-down and bottom-up, and conducting analysis through FMEA, FTA, and collaboration with suppliers, hardware, and software stakeholders.
  • Technical Safety Review begins with a gap analysis of safety concepts and requirements per ISO-26262, followed by proposing solutions for identified gaps.
  • Functional Safety Assessments and Process Improvements entail evaluating compliance with ISO-26262, assessing process implementation, recommending release decisions for functional safety, and proposing solutions for any identified issues
