Assuring Reliability of Vehicle Electronic Systems
Functional Safety ensures the absence of unreasonable risk caused by malfunctioning electrical or electronic systems. As vehicles adopt advanced automation, ADAS, and electrified drivetrains, compliance with ISO 26262 becomes non-negotiable.
BQCIS provides independent auditing, validation, and certification under ISO 26262, guiding organizations from Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment (HARA) through to final ASIL (Automotive Safety Integrity Level) validation. Our verification confirms that functional safety requirements are correctly derived, implemented, and verified across the hardware-software lifecycle.
In parallel, our Homologation services test vehicle systems against mandatory regulatory frameworks such as UNECE R100 and national type-approval regimes—ensuring your safety systems meet both performance and legal standards globally.
Key Functional Safety & Homologation Activities
Key Benefits of Functional Safety & Homologation
Regulatory Compliance
Ensures full adherence to ISO 26262, UNECE R100, and national type-approval frameworks for global acceptance.
Safety Integrity Confidence
Confirms ASIL-level integrity through structured auditing and objective evidence of risk mitigation.
Accelerated Certification
Combines functional safety and homologation reviews to shorten certification cycles and market launch timelines.
OEM & Supplier Assurance
Provides third-party confidence for OEMs, regulators, and end-users regarding system reliability and safety case validity.
Success Story
ISO 26262 Audit Secures Safety Case for EV Braking System
A Tier-1 supplier of electronic braking systems needed ISO 26262 ASIL-D certification before its EV platform could enter mass production.
BQCIS conducted an end-to-end functional safety audit, verifying HARA completeness, ASIL decomposition, and traceability between safety goals and test evidence. Software and hardware reviews were performed using HIL validation.
The audit confirmed full ISO 26262 compliance and supported OEM safety case approval. The validated documentation accelerated type approval and production release of the EV platform—saving months in certification time.
