Assistance complying with industry norms and standards
We have deep familiarity with the norms, standards and regulations that apply to software-based systems in regulated industries, such as automotive, transportation, aerospace, defense and medical devices. To help streamline your path to market, our experts can help you navigate compliance with all standards, including:
- Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange (TISAX) – A standard published by the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) to create an information security and cybersecurity baseline for the European automotive market. The ISO/IEC 27001 information security management (ISMS) framework forms TISAX’s foundation, but TISAX includes guidance for the protection of data and prototypes and has a different scope, assessment procedures and recommendations.
- ISO 13485 – An international standard specifying requirements for the quality management system (QMS) of companies involved in designing, producing, installing, servicing and manufacturing medical devices.
- ISO 9001 – A global standard that defines how to establish, implement, maintain and continually improve a quality management system (QMS) to help ensure that organizations have effective processes and trained personnel to deliver high-quality products and services. ISO 9001 establishes seven principles of quality management:
- Customer focus.
- Leadership.
- Engagement of people.
- Process approach.
- Improvement.
- Evidence-based decision making.
- Relationship management.
Requirements engineering
Because system requirements form the foundation of all further development activities, requirements engineering is key to high-quality software engineering. UL Solutions Software Intensive Systems experts can help support you to face the complex challenges of classical and agile requirements engineering.
Software architecture and system design
Software architecture provides a structure of the system’s software elements and the interactions among them. This framework guides software development decisions to achieve the intended functionality and fulfill requirements for software and system quality.
Software engineering training
UL Solutions Software Intensive Systems offer a variety of trainings, workshops and other learning opportunities to educate and prepare requirements engineers, software architects and testers according to industry standards. We can also train personnel how to use the proper tools, methodologies and techniques of modern software engineering.
