Autotech — diagnostics for the entire vehicle programme.

Diagnostics platforms, off-board tooling and software lifecycle for vehicle programmes — from development and end-of-line to field service. This is the work that has run in serial-production vehicles since 2014.

What we do

From development to the field.

  1. 01

    Off-board diagnostics and end-of-line testing

    Reading fault codes, running diagnostic sequences and logging vehicle health — in development, at end-of-line, and in the workshop. DiagStudio is the application; the discipline is making every ECU answer for itself.

  2. 02

    Bootloader, Encrypt and secure programming

    Software has to get into the vehicle safely — and stay trustworthy. Our bootloader and cyber-security stack handle secure flashing and programming across the programme.

  3. 03

    Software lifecycle across the vehicle programme

    Vehicles outlive their launch software by a decade. We keep the diagnostics, test evidence and update chain coherent across model years and platform generations.

Programme story · Volvo Group · Film 1:02

A quarter-centuryof aftermarket tools,one modern platform

A vehicle spends almost all of its life in the aftermarket, and the platform that diagnoses it decides how fast a workshop turns a fault into a fix. Replacing that platform is not a rewrite — it is a migration that has to happen while the world's workshops keep working.
