Why You Need This

Facing These Challenges
with Functional Safety?

Overwhelmed by ISO 26262's 12 parts and don't know where to start?
ISO 26262 is a comprehensive standard covering all development stages including concept, system, hardware, software, and verification. Requirements vary by ASIL level, so without a systematic approach, time and cost are wasted.
Are functional safety activities becoming a burden on your actual development schedule?
When safety analysis, verification activities, and documentation feel like separate work, development efficiency suffers. Functional safety must be naturally integrated into the development process to be sustainable.
Having difficulty hiring functional safety experts, or lacking internal capabilities?
Functional safety is a field that requires standard knowledge along with actual production project experience. Without experienced experts, both assessment response and practical application become difficult.

Service Introduction

SeonENS Functional Safety Consulting

At SeonENS, experts with automotive ECU production project experience perform consulting. We don’t stop at standard interpretation – we provide solutions applicable in actual development environments.

Integration with Existing Processes

Even when newly introducing ISO 26262, you don't need to completely change your existing development process. We support efficient integration by plugging functional safety activities into already-established processes like ASPICE(R).

ASIL Level-Specific Response
Required activity levels differ from ASIL A to D. We design appropriate process and activity levels matching your product's ASIL level to prevent over-investment.
Practical Experience-Based Guidance
We consult based on cases and know-how accumulated over many years. Rather than simply handing over documents, we explain the background and principles so you understand why things are done this way.

Consulting Process

Phase 1: Current State Diagnosis & Gap Analysis
  • Evaluate current development process functional safety maturity
  • Gap analysis against ISO 26262 requirements
  • Roadmap development for target level achievement
Phase 2: Process & Methodology Development
  • Safety lifecycle process definition
  • Safety analysis methodology establishment (FMEA, FTA, etc.)
  • Template and guideline development
Phase 3: Pilot Project Application
  • Apply process to actual development project
  • HARA, safety concept development support
  • Safety analysis and verification support
Phase 4: FSA (Functional Safety Assessment) Response
  • Safety Case review
  • FSA preparation and mock assessment
  • Assessment support (optional)

Expected Benefits

Practical Benefits

  • Safe Product Development Capability
  • Along with FSA passage, you acquire the capability to create safe products. Through systematic safety analysis and verification, you develop the ability to eliminate potential risks in advance.
  • Natural Integration with Development Process
  • Functional safety activities become part of development, not a separate burden. They naturally blend into existing processes, reducing duplicate work.
  • Independent Operation Capability
  • After consulting ends, you can perform functional safety activities independently.
  • Engineering Quality Improvement
  • Systematic safety analysis improves product design quality itself. The habit of anticipating failure modes leads to better engineering.
