(30 December 2021, Hong Kong) – Recently, Intron Technology Holdings Limited (“Intron Technology” or the “Group”; stock code: 1760.HK), a fast-growing automotive electronics solutions provider in China, and its wholly-owned subsidiary G-Pulse Electronics have obtained the Capability Level 3 certificate of ASPICE V3.1, the latest automotive software process improvement and capability verification standard. It is the highest ASPICE rating thus far given to a mainland automotive industry player and also the highest level for entry to the automotive supply chain comprising international and mainland mainstream OEMs and Tier 1 system vendors, thus is a benchmark for assessing effectively the delivery capability and reliability of software products of a supplier.

According to ASPICE definitions, Capability Level 3 means “Established”. Relevant characteristics can be divided into 1) a company has laid down definition for standard processes and adjustment rules, and 2) a company' standard processes can be customized for a dedicated project based on its attributes and characteristics, and executed. Intron Technology has “fully achieved” both conditions, meaning it has stable and controllable system development capability, can effectively shorten product delivery period and optimize project time and cost, as well as complete delivery of products with quality and quantity assured.

Automotive SPICE ("A-SPICE" or "ASPICE") is a set of software process improvement and capability measurement standards for the automotive industry. It offers a model framework for defining, implementing and evalsuating the software development processes and R&D capability of the automotive industry players. Formulated originally by more than 20 major European automobiles manufacturers, ASPICE was officially released in 2005. In recent years, with such as new energy vehicles, autonomous driving and [Internet-of-Vehicle / vehicle networking] becoming industry trends, automotive software has taken on weight in auto industry R&D and accordingly software quality management demand has also kept increasing. As such, ASPICE has been widely used in improving the R&D process and evalsuating suppliers’ R&D capabilities.
