Automotiv SPICE v3.0 Guideline

By -
VDA has published Automotive SPICE v3.0 guideline (draft version) in February 2017 for community review & suggestion. The final version "Blue-Gold" book will be available in September 2017. 

 This provides detailed guidance on following topics:
Part 1: Interpretation and rating guideline
This section is very detailed & covers rating guideline for Base Practice (BP) of 16 processes (VDA scope - Old HIS Scope), relationship between rating of BPs, rating guideline for Capability Level 2, Capability Level 3.

 Part 2: Guideline for performing the assessment
This section provide details on "assessment process" and is similar to the older version of assessment process published in 2008. It also provides concept of improvement process & requirements relating to assessor qualification.

 Official usage of Automotive SPICE v3.0 to conduct assessment will start after upgrade training to Principal & competent assessors.

Automotive SPICE v3.0: Plug-in Concept

By -
Image
Automotive SPICE v2.5 has Engineering Processes as ENG.1 ~ ENG.10 covering system & software domain processes. Automotive SPICE v3.0 has been upgraded with concept of "Plug-in" domain specific processes. System Engineering process have been separated with SYS.1 ~ SYS.5 on top level of architecture. Domain specific processes, i.e., Software Engineering have been defined as SWE.1 ~ SWE.6. The placeholder for Hardware Engineering (HWE.1 ~ HWE.4) & Mechanical Engineering (MEE.1 ~ MEE.4) have been created. In future, with the availability of Hardware engineering & Mechanical Engineering processes, Process scope can be enlarged.  For details visit www.iqiconsulting.com or write to us on contact@iqiconsulting.com

Concept of SUP.9 Problem Resolution & SUP.10 Change Request Management

Both processes leads to changing project work products which are already baselined. To update the baselined work products, change (control) management (part of Configuration Management Process) is called. However, before calling change management process, the analysis of defects / change request shall be completed. The concept of their implementation is shown below: Automotive SPICE defines two processe s; SUP.9 Problem Resolution Management (PRM) & SUP.10 Change Request Management (CRM) Process. Few organisation manages these two processes with same tool & combines the flow but identifies with categorisation.  Difficulty is seen when CMMI based organisation tries to fulfil the CRM requirements using SG2 requirement of CM Process Area of CMMI. Some of the activities are not get defined completely. By adding additional requirements as indicate above (also defined in Automotive SPICE SUP.10), the compliance to SUP.10 can be achieved.
