Digital engineering firm, GlobalLogic, has been named by Volvo Cars as a strategic partner for engineering services.
Within the broader ecosystem, the pair will work together to create digital mobility “experiences and solutions” for drivers. GlobalLogic will use its global delivery centres where software engineers with specific industry expertise will design and build software-upgradable applications spanning a car’s entire lifecycle.
GlobalLogic has been operating in the automotive sector for over 20 years, innovating the driver experience through domains such as software-defined vehicle architecture, networking, digital cockpit development, autonomous driving, and electric vehicle propulsion. Besides Volvo, it works with Stellantis (which owns a number of brands including Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Citroen, Vauxhall, and Chrysler) and has a large automotive-centric software facility in Poland.
Volvo has been enriching both its own capability in digital as well as evolving its partner ecosystem. Efforts have been focused around redesigning the user experience for drivers to make driving safer and more personalised. Besides GlobalLogic, the automotive firm has been collaborating with the likes of Qualcomm and Google to improve its infotainment systems. And last year, Volvo established a joint venture with Daimler Truck to develop a common software-defined vehicle platform and dedicated truck operating system. It has been building out is own in-house capability supported by, for example, the acquisition of Zenseact, a provider of autonomous driving software.
