ANN ARBOR, Michigan, USA 18 August 2022—CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm announces the release of a new whitepaper, Vehicle Electrification—Accelerated by Integrated Electrical/Electronic Systems Solutions. The whitepaper describes vehicle electrification engineering challenges and the capabilities of Siemens Digital Industries Software’s integrated and cross-discipline approach of their Integrated E/E Systems Solutions. With new drive lines and battery technology, not to mention the explosive growth in electronics and software, these capabilities allow automakers to remain competitive, even as new start-ups enter the electric vehicle marketplace. Siemens Digital Industries Software (Siemens), a proven provider to the automotive industry, is keeping pace with the emerging electric vehicle automotive engineering challenges.
According to Mr. Craig Brown, a CIMdata Executive Consultant with over 30 years of experience in the automotive industry, “Today’s automakers need capable tools for electronic and electrical systems development beyond just communications and embedded computers and their sensors and actuators. Included now are new power electronics, electrically powered motors, innovative batteries, and power distribution wiring harnesses. More and more of the vehicle’s features, from propulsion, to range, to controls are now in the hands of systems designers skilled in electronics and electrical engineering. For them to survive and thrive, a fully integrated electrical/electronic/embedded software solutions set spanning multiple disciplines is required. Siemens continues to enable automakers as the automobile industry pivots to electrification.”
