SDVerse Accelerates ‘SW Sourcing’ for SDV
INTERVIEW: Prashant Gulati, CEO of SDVerse
Last year, the automotive industry spent approximately $30 billion on software, but only 10% of that was actually allocated to software that was separated from hardware. Software sourcing is typically done by either developing it in-house, relying on a preferred supplier list, or using Google search and attending conferences. This process can take months. For sellers, even Tier 2 suppliers can take up to eight years to get in front of an OEM. SDVerse aims to break down the opaque and closed practices of the automotive industry related to software, and revolutionize the software procurement and purchasing process for software-defined vehicles. The new sourcing approach offers benefits such as reduced costs, time, and complexity, improved software quality, better resource allocation, and increased vendor revenue. I spoke with Prashant Gulati, CEO of SDVerse, at The Autonomous to learn how the SDVerse marketplace can provide these advantages.
