PTC announces that Mazda Motor Corp., a global automaker, has selected the PTC Codebeamer Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) solution to support its software-defined vehicle development (SDV). Mazda will use Codebeamer to standardize requirements, testing, and validation.
Codebeamer enables streamlined workflows, early issue detection, and maintained connectivity between Model-Based Development data, requirements, and validation results. This step helps automotive companies ensure that every stage of the vehicle development process is traceable and aligned.
“As our vehicles become increasingly software driven, it is essential that our product development teams operate within a connected and disciplined development environment,” says Tomohiko Adachi, supreme principal engineer, KURUMA Development Division, Mazda Motor. “Codebeamer helps us strengthen requirements traceability and visibility, supporting greater alignment across teams as we continue to evolve our development approach.”
Codebeamer helps teams streamline safety-critical development, enforce strict checkpoints, and reduce late-stage risks. Mazda will use the unified product data foundation to build a strong project knowledge base, replacing fragmented legacy tools. This integration enables improved quality, compliance, and efficient reuse of decisions and test results.
“Mazda is embracing software-defined vehicle development,” says Robert Dahdah, chief revenue officer, PTC. “Using Codebeamer helps consolidate dispersed documentation, supporting requirements management and collaboration, enabling faster decision-making, more efficient product development cycles, and enhanced quality, innovation, and collaboration.”
