SPICE for Mechanical Engineering

Learn how SPICE for Mechanical Engineering can help you systematically develop mechanical systems and components in the automotive industry.

This training provides participants with an overview of the processes included in the process assessment model SPICE for Mechanical Engineering, which can be integrated into Automotive SPICE^® using a plug-in. This model makes it possible to systematically and methodically develop mechanical systems and components in the automotive industry. It also enables the improvement and assessment of processes used to develop mechanical systems and components.

The training is designed for process managers, quality managers, assessors and project team members who would like to check their current mechanical engineering processes against the latest process model.

Participants will discuss practical problems that can occur in an assessment and respective process improvements. The training consists of presentations, exercises and discussions and offers ample opportunity to ask questions and share experiences.
