CX-0071 Triangle Quality Early Warning Field and Root Cause v2.0.0

ABSTRACT​

The Catena-X use case "Quality" (QAX) provides the ability to detect quality issues the earliest possible to start root cause analyses and/or to enable an early warning feature for new quality topics. In subsequent steps, counter measures can also be defined earlier and monitored. In sum, this reduces the number of vehicles affected by quality issues and increases the availability of the vehicle and built-in components. Catena-X use case "Quality" is powered by Catena-X standard core components to share data from OEM and suppliers based on data sharing agreements and usage policies.

1. INTRODUCTION​

The Catena-X use case "Quality" (QAX) uses multiple data models to exchange data between automotive manufacturer (OEM) and component supplier (TIER1). Each of these data models can be supplied independently. The QualityTask data model defines the root element for Catena-X-based quality work. It describes the quality task and why two companies want to work collaboratively on a quality topic.

1.1 AUDIENCE & SCOPE​

This section is non-normative

The standard is relevant for the following roles within the scope of the Use Case "Quality" *Data Provider/Consumer

  • Business Application Provider

In scope:

  • Data sharing between OEM, Tier1 and Tier n
  • Earliest possible detection of potential issues with products and vehicles in usage
  • Understanding of the root cause of the detected issues to enable earliest possible counter measure implementation

1.2 CONTEXT​

This section is non-normative

For all participants of the Use Case "Quality" it is necessary to provide and consume the data in accordance to the standardized semantic data models CX-0036 - CX-0041 and CX-0091, CX-0092 to ensure the defined interoperability requirement "free of choice application" to be able to use the established inhouse tool set for analysis.

1.3 ARCHITECTURE OVERVIEW​

This section is non-normative

Catena-X use case "Quality" data flow: Data is exported from existing backend systems and mapped to Catena-X aspect models - see list of relevant Catena-X aspect models for use case "Quality" in section 2.1 LIST OF STANDALONE STANDARDS The so generated files are transferred between different Catena-X participants using Catena-X' Eclipse Dataspace Connector (EDC).

1.4 CONFORMANCE​

As well as sections marked as non-normative, all authoring guidelines, diagrams, examples, and notes in this specification are non-normative. Everything else in this specification is normative.

The key words MAY, MUST, MUST NOT, OPTIONAL, RECOMMENDED, REQUIRED, SHOULD and SHOULD NOT in this document document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.

1.5 PROOF OF CONFORMITY​

This section is non-normative

All participants and their solutions will need to proof, that they are conform with the Catena-X standards. To validate that the standards are applied correctly, Catena-X employs Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs).

Since this Triangle document describes a set of standards to be fulfilled, participants MUST fulfill all mentioned standards and the respective conformity assessment criteria in addition to the specific criteria mentioned in this document.

The specific criteria described in this document are describing the usage of the central tools as well as common tools described in the linked standardization documents and therefore compliance should be checked with the tools provided for these components.

1.6 EXAMPLES​

1.7 TERMINOLOGY​

This section is non-normative

Business Partner Number (BPN) : A BPN is the unique identifier of a partner within Catena-x

Additional terminology used in this standard can be looked up in the glossary on the association homepage.

Eclipse Dataspace Connector (EDC) : The EDC is a reference implementation of a connector for IDSA conform sovereign data exchange

Additional terminology used in this standard can be looked up in the glossary on the association homepage.

2. STANDARDS FOR "Triangle Quality Early Warning Field and Root Cause"​

This section is normative

2.1 LIST OF STANDALONE STANDARDS​

This section is normative

In order to participate in the Catena-X use case "Quality - Early Warning Field" and "Quality - Root Cause analysis" the following single standards MUST be fulfilled by all participants:

CX - 0018 Eclipse Data Connector(EDC) v2.0.0

As OEM data provider I MUST align to the following aspect models in the corresponding data exchange:

CX-0036 Aspect Model: QualityTask
CX-0037 Aspect Model: Vehicle.ProductionData
CX-0038 Aspect Model: Fleet.DiagnosticData
CX-0039 Aspect Model: Fleet.ClaimData
CX-0091 Aspect Model: Fleet.Vehicles
CX-0092 Aspect Model: QualityTaskAttachment

As Supplier data provider I MUST align to the following aspect models in the corresponding data exchange:

CX-0036 Aspect Model: QualityTask
CX-0040-Aspect Model: PartAnalyses
CX-0041-Aspect Model: ManufacturedPartsQualityInformation
CX-0092 Aspect Model: QualityTaskAttachment

  • Data provisioning and consuming MUST be done according the standardized semantic data models.
  • The data provider defines the data content that will be provided. Provided data assets are defined in data sharing agreements and/or data usage policies.

As Business Application Provider I MUST support at least 2 aspect models (minimum standard): One from OEM data provider aspect model list and one from Supplier data provider aspect model list.
