As the methodologies for electrical and electronic systems design and development evolve in parallel with their complexity and with a constant pressure for reduced programme leadtimes, OEMs and Tier 1s alike are presented with constant challenges and opportunities for improving and enhancing their delivery strategies.  P-TEC Automotive has been able to develop and deliver with its client base both new and enhanced design, development, verification and validation methods through adopting both new and proven techniques, tools and processes. A core aspect of this business stream lies within the area of Electrical Distribution System design, where P-TEC has become a market leader in providing fully integrated solutions bespoke to client requirements. This includes all aspects of 2D circuit design through to 3D geometrical design and their subsequent integration to provide the basis for detailed wiring harness drawings.

P-TEC continues to keep abreast of the methodologies which are enabling its Clients to deliver electrical and electronic systems faster and to a higher quality.  P-TEC has utilised the latest Network Analysis and Diagnostics tools to support its projects and has recognised the efficiencies they have introduced into the development of increasingly complex vehicle electrical systems. 

Our Clients are continually striving to conduct more effective simulation and test coverage of electronics and software earlier in the development cycle.  P-TEC has played a major part in the introduction of these strategies through deployment and development of skills in the Simulation and Test arena and the adoption of leading edge toolsets (such as Matlab/Simulink/Stateflow/Autocoding and Hardware-In-the-Loop setups) to support such initiatives.
