Agile Development Organization

To manage the growing amount, importance, complexity, …. of software in our products we are applying agile development practices

SAFe is used as a scaling framework

~15 ARTs is up and running under 1 Large Solution

Many different development organizations included

Mainly focusing on the software development, hardware and electronics starts to be included

https://v46.scaledagileframework.com/


Feature focus in the organization

ARTs and teams are organized around reaching maximum speed in delivering features with new value to customers

Xross competence teams and trains are key to reach this

T-shaping is critical in a xross competence team

Teams and Trains are responsible from cradle to the grave:

– Covering from early phases until maintenance– Covering from requirement elicitation until system

Feedback loop

To reach speed and quality it is important to reduce the feedback loop

Feedback loop is defined as how fast the Plan – Do – Check – Adjustcycle can be completed

Organization and xross competence teams is one of the cornerstones

Technical solutions around integration is another cornerstone

Improvements in feedback loop

Coming from a V-cycle development with 48weeks feedback cycle

Currently feedback cycle within one PI (10 weeks)

In close future we will reach feedback cycle within ONE DAY

Remaining challenges

Automotive domain are changing too slow

– Tier 1 are still ECU oriented, as well and purchasing setup

Autosar tool-chains

– Adaptive Autosar is a good step on the way, but we don’t know how good the tools will be yet

– Classic Autosar doesn’t support from an architecture point of view, but an efficient tool-chain can reduce the problem

Internally to reach an agile business operation, not only agile in product development


Tool supplier challenges

Cloud is part of the every day work

– license models shall embrace server solutions

– ’click next to install’ do not work

Every operation shall be possible to perform headless

– first design the command line interface, then add GUI if needed

The tool speed shall depend on the hardware and scale

– generation of an Adaptive Autosar ECU < 1min, given the right hardware

Q & A

Volvo Group Trucks Technology

Volvo brand profile and accent colorsProfile colorsThese are our primary colors for decorative purposes. Use each color in 100%. (Avoid to use the tints and shades.)

Color R G B

TROPIC 203 100 35

SPRING 176 164 52

Success 71 150 45

Warning 247 211 2

Error 196 0 26

Use the ten profile colors when formatting text and objects in PowerPoint.

Volvo Brand colors in PowerPointSelect an object. On the Home tab, in the group Drawing, click the down arrow on SHAPE FILL. Click FORMAT PAINTER (On the Home tab, in the Clipboard group).

Then go to the object you want to color in and click on it. The new object now has the new color. The color is only available in the paintbrush one time but if you double-click the paint-brush, when you select it, you can use it on several objects.

How to select the colorsSelect a color by clicking on the dotted frame of the colored circle. Click when the curser looks like a cross.

Accent colorsUse each color in 100% and only to draw attention to a message or a specific element. Don’t overuse them – the effect will be compromised. Accent colors should never be used for decorative purposes. And remember to only stick to one color.

Signal colorsThe signal colors are standard colors, not unique to the Volvo brand, and serve one purpose only: To highlight user feedback messages
