Functional safety engineered into every stage of the process.

We develop and verify automotive control systems against ISO 26262 functional safety requirements — with ISO 21434 cybersecurity engineering run alongside the safety process from the outset, rather than added once the architecture is fixed.

ISO 26262

Road Vehicles — Functional Safety

Hazard analysis and risk assessment, ASIL determination, and safety requirements decomposition run through every stage of system and software development, with the traceability and evidence your assessor expects.

ISO 21434

Road Vehicles — Cybersecurity Engineering

Threat analysis and risk assessment (TARA) and cybersecurity goals are developed alongside the safety case, so security requirements are designed in rather than retrofitted onto a finished architecture.

ASIL A–D

Automotive Safety Integrity Levels

Architectures, diagnostic coverage, and verification depth are scaled to the integrity level your hazard analysis demands — including decomposition strategies where a single ASIL D requirement is split across independent elements.

Capability across the vehicle programme lifecycle.

From concept HARA through to production-intent software, we can lead development or provide independent assessment alongside your existing team.

Development

  • System architecture & requirements decomposition — allocating safety requirements across hardware and software elements, including ASIL decomposition strategies.
  • Redundancy & fault-tolerant design — architecting for degradation and safe-state transitions appropriate to the ASIL of the function.
  • Embedded software development — application software developed against MISRA C and your platform's architecture, with safety mechanisms designed in from the outset.
  • Tool confidence & process support — qualification and confidence-in-use arguments for development and verification tools used on your programme.

Verification & Assurance

  • HARA & safety case development — hazard analysis, ASIL rating, and safety case documentation aligned to ISO 26262 Parts 3–6.
  • TARA & cybersecurity case — threat analysis, attack feasibility rating, and cybersecurity goals under ISO 21434.
  • Structural coverage & fault injection — unit and integration coverage analysis with fault injection to confirm safe-state transitions.
  • Independent safety assessment — confirmation measures and independent review to support assessor sign-off.
