Client Requirements
The electric vehicle manufacturing company was looking for a solution to remotely monitor their fleet of electric vehicles and perform Over-The-Air (OTA) updates to their vehicle software. They also wanted the ability to analyze the data collected from their vehicles to identify potential issues and improve their overall vehicle performance. The company required a solution that would increase their vehicle uptime, reduce maintenance costs, and enhance the driving experience for their customers.
Issues with Existing Conditions
Under the preexisting circumstances, the manufacturer had little insight into the performance of its vehicles and was forced to rely on customer complaints to identify potential problems. Customers were unsatisfied and downtime was prolonged as a result of the company’s failure to respond quickly to vehicle issues due to a lack of real-time monitoring and alerts. Also, the manual software update process led to delays and potential update-process errors.
