7
Joint architecture development programs 7 Comprehensive approaches to platform development process may become “monolithic” and, if this occurs, they present many drawbacks Since platform development scope should span over 2 vehicle lifecycles, an enhanced flexibility and modularity is helpful in optimizing investment reducing costs and engineering expenses The need for flexibility is further enhanced with regard to joint architecture development programs, in which the partners wish to differentiate on subsystems that affect customers’ perception of the vehicle PLATFORM DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGES
8
Joint architecture development programs 8 Two ways of addressing modularity needs Disentanglement of some portions of the process P.S.C. (Component Development Platform) “Impostazione” Process Definition of a perimeter of systems/subsystems that can be harmonized that have enough flexibility to last for 2 lifecycles or - at least – capable to be easily adapted to future requirements PLATFORM DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGES

14
Joint architecture development programs 14 PROCESS VEHICLE LINE EXECUTIVE GM EUROPE In some cases, vehicle development process re-design - that was underway in Fiat before the start of joint projects - helped the convergence on process For instance the role of Platform director in Fiat was already aligned with the GME one Nevertheless, process and standards alignment is still one of the main barriers that Fiat-GM joint development programs are currently facing Role Relationship with Functional Areas Core Team Process Integration “PLATFORM DIRECTOR” FIAT AUTO
