What exactly is ASPICE?
ASPICE, or Automotive SPICE®, certification is an integral step for software product suppliers to the automotive industry, validating the credibility of certified companies to provide the highest quality product. ASPICE analyzes the internal development processes of a product and provides an evaluation tool for automakers to use in selecting a supplier by calculating their process quality and capabilities.
Why Does It Matter?
ASPICE certification is quality assurance to the max! It guarantees Telenav software meets the rigorous global standard for safety and reliability that’s critical for developing, deploying, and sustaining automotive-grade software. In effect, it means ASPICE confirms that Telenav’s software works to specification and meets OEM product standards.
