Agile & Digital in Automotive Product Development
(CT-IS101)

This two-day workshop helps automotive engineering and digital teams apply Agile practices in the complex environment of modular platforms, product variants, and system integration. Designed for OEMs and suppliers alike, the training aligns Agile ways of working with automotive-specific milestones such as bench testing, homologation, and system integration across mechanical, electrical, and software domains.

🎯 Learning Objective

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

  • Build product backlogs from system-level artifacts (requirements, DVPs, CRs)
  • Align Agile development cycles across hardware, firmware, and software
  • Plan system integration and product variant synchronization using Agile roadmaps
  • Leverage PLM tools and Digital Twin approaches for Agile delivery
  • Navigate prototype builds, bench testing, and homologation with Agile rhythm
  • Co-create with suppliers through collaborative planning and cadence

📌 Who Should Attend

Engineering managers and product teams in OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers
System architects, firmware/software leads, platform engineers
Digital thread and PLM transformation teams
R&D, prototype, and V&V engineers

Level: Intermediate

Team Format: Cross-disciplinary groups encouraged (hardware, software, systems, digital)
