ConSysTec is highly active in the area of ITS Standards and is a recognized industry leader. We have led the development or have been involved with the development of most of the ITS Standards in the past decade, including for Connected Vehicles. We actively participate on many of the working groups of Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) related to ITS standards, including the NTCIP Joint Committee, NTCIP working groups, ISO TC 204, and the SAE DSRC Technical Committee.

In addition to being responsible for overall coordination of several ITS Standards, ConSysTec has applied the systems engineering process and provided technical support in the deployment of ITS Standards, including test plan methodologies and development, reference implementations, standards based procurement specifications, and standards outreach (creating training courses, providing training, and workshop support).

Services we offer in the area of ITS Standards include:

  • Applying the Systems Engineering Process to standards / standards specifications development
  • Developing standards-based specifications and ITS standards deployment plans
  • Offering technical and non-technical training on ITS standards
  • Performing independent validation and verification (IV&V)
