CATL Intelligent Tech has successfully passed the ASPICE L2 assessment for the SICC project recently. This signifies that CATL Intelligent Tech's software development system has reached an internationally advanced standard.

ASPICE, which stands for Automotive Software Process Improvement and Capability Determination, is an assessment model for automotive software development and maintenance processes. The primary objective of ASPICE is to enhance software quality and safety while reducing development costs and risks. Attaining ASPICE Capability Level 2 (L2) necessitates a manageable and traceable R&D process. This involves establishing a comprehensive set of R&D activity decomposition and evaluation specifications, along with the implementation of R&D activities supported by relevant documents and tools. Additionally, the R&D process must be continuously monitored, evaluated, and improved to ensure that the project's time, quality, and cost align with delivery requirements.

In the development of the Integrated Intelligent Chassis, also known as the “skateboard chassis” in the industry, the SICC serves as the “cerebellum” of the chassis, overseeing functions of the chassis control and management center, including motion control, energy management, equipment management, regional gateways, and intelligent services. The development of related applications presents significant challenges to the software process system.

With the support of experts from relevant institutions, CATL Intelligent Tech has meticulously analyzed the existing software development process, conducted personnel training and capacity building, and created and optimized documents related to project R&D and management. Throughout the project development, it has strictly adhered to ASPICE requirements for strict implementation, monitoring, and improvement, culminating in the successful acquisition of the ASPICE L2 certification.

The achievement of the ASPICE L2 certification represents a crucial milestone for CATL Intelligent Tech in the realm of chassis intelligence. In the future, CATL Intelligent Tech is dedicated to enhancing its system capabilities, advancing Integrated Intelligent Chassis technology R&D, empowering the industry and customers, and achieving high-efficiency, high-quality vehicle development and mass production.
