Automotive Margin Survival: Virtual Integration & Continuous Verification as Strategic Moves

Automotive profitability is under siege. Competitive pressures, escalating regulatory demands, and the soaring complexity and cost of software development are squeezing margins like never before. Meanwhile, the race toward software-defined vehicles and accelerated time to market leaves no room for inefficiency.

 Discover how early virtualization, system-level automation, and test reuse can unlock efficiencies, reduce R&D overhead, and protect the bottom line.

What you will learn:

• Align regulatory compliance with cost-effective test strategies
• Accelerate SOP timelines through simulation-first validation
• Reduce R&D costs while improving software quality
• Quantify and mitigate SOP delays and associated EBIT loss

Key takeaways:

• Why traditional testing silently erodes contribution margins
• How virtualization and automation drive speed and savings
• The critical link between integration strategy and SOP risk
• A practical blueprint to cut test costs without sacrificing quality
• Why test infrastructure is now a boardroom-level concern
