Vehicle Diagnostics is NOW Integrated Diagnostics & Aftersales Transformation [iDART]

Keeping the ‘Software on Wheels’ in motion...

What will it take, now, and into the FUTURE?
Software on Wheels

Engineering tools, accelerators, and platforms for SDV diagnostics development

Agile methods to develop diagnostic content for analyzing & diagnosing: the S/W running on HPCs (High-performance computers), hardware.

Automated frameworks for: data-driven testing, validation and verification of ECU/HPC implementation using physical & virtual HIL set-ups

Digitalization of service & technical information across aftersales touchpoints. Connected systems for service information design, development and management

Al-powered, connected aftersales eco-system for: guided root-cause diagnostics, HPC diagnosis, over-the-air updates for on-demand feature enablement and predictive maintenance.

The transformation towards software-defined vehicles is an inevitable trend that will shape the future of the automotive industry over the next decade. However, this shift will not be simple and will demand innovative thinking, implementation of new technologies, and the adoption of novel business models across the automotive lifecycle.

At KPIT, as a software integration partner to the industry, we are at the forefront of this transformation and are assisting leading brands in managing their current vehicle programs and working together on developing next-generation solutions for the software-defined vehicle (SDV).

20+ Years of excellence
in developing patented vehicle lifecycle management solutions spanning vehicle design, engineering, aftersales service, maintenance and repair.
