  • How do custom automotive applications ingest data from vehicle CAN bus and OBD-II systems?

    We build telematics pipelines that interface with hardware Telematics Control Units (TCUs) or OBD-II dongles using ISO 11898 or SAE J1939 protocols. Transmitted via cellular gateways, the software decodes binary message framesβ€”such as engine RPM, temperatures, and fault codesβ€”into standardized JSON payloads for real-time fleet analytics.

  • Can custom dealership software integrate with DMS platforms like CDK Global or Reynolds?

    Yes. We build custom API middleware interfacing directly with major Dealer Management Systems, including CDK Global, Reynolds & Reynolds, and Dealertrack. Our connectors enable real-time two-way synchronization for vehicle inventory, customer profiles, repair orders, and sales leads without manual re-entry.

  • What standards do you use to manage automotive parts catalog data and fitment?

    We implement ACES (Aftermarket Catalog Exchange Standard) for vehicle year-make-model fitment applications and PIES (Product Information Exchange Standard) for detailed parts attributes. Structuring catalogs around these standards ensures buyers locate compatible parts accurately, drastically reducing product returns.

  • How do custom software applications manage EV charging stations using OCPP?

    We build charging management platforms implementing OCPP 1.6 and 2.0.1 over WebSockets. The cloud software acts as a Central System, exchanging real-time messages with chargers for remote start/stop, status reporting, meter values, load balancing, and driver billing.

  • Who owns the intellectual property and vehicle telemetry models developed during the project?

    Your organization retains 100% intellectual property ownership of all custom source code, software designs, and database schemas. We transfer all repositories and deployment documentation upon completion with zero recurring platform fees, per-vehicle charges, or vendor lock-in.

  • How do connected vehicle platforms protect driver privacy and sensitive location data?

    We enforce AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, and data anonymization techniques that isolate personal driver identities from diagnostic telemetry streams. Role-Based Access Control and user consent management ensure compliance with GDPR and CCPA privacy standards.

  • Can custom software automate service bay scheduling and maintenance diagnostics routing?

    Yes. We build responsive scheduling applications connecting web booking portals with service bay calendars and DMS repair orders. The software calculates shop capacity based on technician certifications and labor times, routing diagnostic trouble codes to service advisors to prepare parts before vehicle arrival.
