Functional Safety (FuSa) Services Leading
automakers are quickly evolving to Software
Defined Vehicles, with modern vehicles having
multiple electronic systems with millions of
lines of code running on them. In an industry
like Automotive, humans are increasingly
dependent on electronic systems to monitor and
control many aspects of the vehicle. Therefore
passenger safety becomes paramount. Functional
Safety (FuSa) Services is an integral part of the
product development process in any Automotive
Electrical and Electronic system, to ensure the
safe and reliable operation of the system.
Therefore, FuSa is about adopting a
systematic approach to identify, assess, and
devise ways to mitigate the risk/potential
hazards that may arise. In other words, should
something fail, we want it to fail
predictably. For automotive applications, the
ISO 26262 - Road vehicles -Functional safety
Services standard serves as the directive based
on which the Functional safety development
process is to be based. Functional Safety
Process We begin by conducting a thorough Hazard
and Risk Analysis (HARA) where potential risks
are identified and categorized. This is used to
determine the ASIL Level ranging from A to D.
Further analysis is conducted by DFMEA (Design
Failure Mode Effect Analysis) and FMEDA (Failure
modes, Effects and Diagnostic Analysis), and
based on the assessment, the Functional Safety
concept is developed, where safety requirements
are defined and this is used to arrive at the
System Level, Hardware and Software level
requirements are defined in the implementation
phase, along with rigorous testing and validation
procedures used to ensure that the system meets
the designed requirements. We base these
processes as guided by ISO 26262 standards that
is crucial in ensuring that the electronic
systems operate predictably and can handle
failures and events in a predetermined
manner. Our Functional Safety Services We support
major parts of ISO 26262 development such as the
Concept Phase, Product Development at the
System, Hardware, and Software Levels, along with
Supporting processes. Our team has a wide range
of experience from more than a decade of working
on individual system projects and full vehicle
development projects. We can support individual
aspects of the process as well as end-to-end
services, traveling along with the development
process.
