Certification is Key to Active Compliance
AV and ADAS solutions are responsible for radically transforming our lives, making transportation safer and more efficient. The deployment of safe automated driving systems engages companies by holding them to a high standard of public trust. Companies need to implement active compliance with solution testing and certification as they prepare to enter the market.
Taking this broad view of the importance of regulatory affairs and compliance for commercialization, especially in demonstrating the market readiness of our community, OPINA provides both pre-certification and certification services for software developed on the platform.
We also provide compliance and regulatory training programs, where key team members and stakeholders can earn certificates.
