What changes when it is automotive

A regular release cadence beats emergency-only updates. Small, frequent changes are easier to test, easier to roll back and far less likely to break something else.

In automotive, tier-one supply chains demand traceability on every part and every process. That single fact reshapes how app maintenance & support has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.

The workload we are most often asked to take on first is dealer service scheduling, usually integrated against ERP. We build the smallest thing that proves the case, put it in front of real users, and expand only what earns its keep.

Deployed across regulated and unregulated sectors, with audit trails where the regulator expects them. You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

App Maintenance & Support workloads in automotive

  • visual quality inspection
  • warranty claim analysis
  • dealer service scheduling
  • supply chain exception handling
  • telematics analytics

What is included

  • OS version testing ahead of each major Android and iOS release
  • SDK and dependency upgrades before they become forced
  • Store policy compliance monitoring and required changes
  • Crash triage with prioritisation by user impact
  • Regular release cadence rather than emergency-only updates
  • A named contact, not a ticket queue

Questions from this sector

Can it inspect painted surfaces?

Yes, and paint defect detection is one of the harder vision problems, lighting control matters more than model choice. We assess your line conditions before committing to accuracy targets.

What about warranty fraud?

Pattern analysis across claims, parts and dealers surfaces anomalies for investigation, with explanations attached to each flag.

What typically needs updating?

OS compatibility twice a year, SDK and dependency upgrades, store policy changes, and whatever real users surface that testing missed. Most of it is predictable and schedulable.

What if we do nothing?

The app degrades and eventually gets pulled. Missing a required target-SDK deadline results in removal from the store, which is not recoverable quickly.

Do you maintain apps you did not build?

Yes, after a code and dependency audit. We need to see what we would be taking responsibility for, and sometimes that audit changes the advice.
