ISO 26262 Tool Classification and Qualification

As part of the release of ISO 26262 in 2011, requirements to establish confidence in the correct functioning of software tools used to develop safety-related automotive E/E systems came into effect. A decade later, there are plenty of experiences and lessons learned from applying these requirements in day-to-day engineering.

However, implementing ISO 26262 tool classification and qualification remains a challenge for many automotive organizations and remains resource intensive. Starting with a systematic introduction to the tool classification and qualification requirements of ISO 26262-8, this one-day training class also provides current industry best practices and discusses trends and lessons learned. In the hands-on session, you will familiarize yourself with the structure and content of an exemplary ISO 26262 classification kit for a model-based development tool and gain hands-on experience in customizing a kit to your organization’s specific needs.
