"SIMULATION-BASED MULTI-ORGANIZATIONAL ENGINEERING" WHITE PAPER

Explore our structured tool-based process for seamless and trusted simulation collaboration!

Why this white paper?

The white paper introduces proposes a structured tool-based process to enhance simulation-based collaboration between OEMs and suppliers. The framework focuses on improving the specification and fidelity assessment of simulation models through structured and repeatable processes. Key elements include a 24-point checklist that guides the completion of model specifications and the use of a Model Identity Card (MIC-core) to standardize the description of the model. This helps ensure that both parties share a clear understanding of the model’s purpose, scope, and underlying assumptions.

What is at stake?

Enhancing OEM-Supplier communication for reliable simulations

As systems become more complex and supply chains more intricate, simulation becomes indispensable to avoid integration problems. In the context of an exchange between OEM and supplier, effective communication between OEMs and suppliers is crucial to ensure accurate and reliable simulation models. However, current practices often rely on informal exchanges—through emails, meetings, or unstructured documents—which can lead to misunderstandings, incomplete specifications, and errors in model integration. These issues are further amplified by the difficulty of maintaining traceability across the model lifecycle, the lack of formalized processes for verification and validation (V&V), and the challenge of assessing model fidelity when simulations are shared as black boxes.

An overview before going any further

« OEMs and suppliers used to meet around physical prototypes to find and solve basic issues before beginning concrete development work. This working method is no longer compatible with the current challenges of the automotive industry. Synthesis simulation engineering gathering all stakeholders is a key asset to stay in the race and speed-up our development »
