The Vaillant Group and Vector: Enabling a One-Day Development Cycle
Future-ready Software Platform for maximum efficiency
Together with Vector, the Vaillant Group automated and redesigned key workflows, enabling a one-day development cycle that significantly increases flexibility and accelerates embedded software development.
Key Highlights of the Solution
From Idea to Software Release – In Under 24 Hours
From a change in system architecture or a code commit in the platform project to validated output and a product-specific release all within less than 24 hours. This milestone enables rapid iteration, faster delivery, and a highly responsive development cycle.
Efficient Variant Management
Instead of developing and maintaining each product variant separately, the Vaillant Group has implemented a structured approach that focuses on reusing common components, processes, and technologies across its product family. This enables systematic reuse, improves control, and reduces maintenance complexity, while minimizing the manual effort required for releasing multiple product variants. After each platform release, integration of product-specific applications and testing, and release processes is supported by a high degree of automation.
Modular, Scalable and Future-Ready Software Platform
MICROSAR’s modular software architecture simplifies development and maintenance, accelerates onboarding, and opens access to a broad network of certified engineers across industries.
Success Story in Detail
The Vaillant Group and Vector have transformed embedded software development by introducing a highly automated, agile workflow. This collaboration demonstrates how a MICROSAR-based platform approach combined with Vector’s Software Factory enables rapid iteration, efficient integration, and scalable growth for complex embedded systems.
