How to install Reference Models?
Standard reference models are shipped by the customer care team either after your order arrived or a new/updated reference model became available as part of your subscription or maintenance contract.
Reference models are shipped as ZIP files.
Intellectual Property
Some reference models are subject to intellectual property by a third party. This intellectual property is not transferred as part of an order, so you need to make sure you have a license contract to electronically process the reference model content. Depending on your contract, you may need to limit the number of users that can access the reference model.
Create Reference Model workspace
Use the workspace administration to create a new workspace for the reference model to be installed. Typically, reference models are located directly under the root workspace in a “Reference Models” workspace.
To assure compatibility with other reference models or process frameworks, we recommend to use the following standard names for workspaces:
| Reference Model | Workspace Name |
|---|---|
| Automotive SPICE® Process Reference and Assessment Model Version 3.1 | Automotive SPICE 3.1 |
| Automotive SPICE® Process Reference and Assessment Model for Cybersecurity Engineering Version 1.0 | Automotive SPICE for Cybersecurity 1.0 |
| Hardware SPICE PRM/PAM Version 2.0 | Hardware SPICE 2.0 |
| Process Assessment Model SPICE for Mechanical Engineering Version 1.8 | Mechanical SPICE 1.8 |
| International Standard ISO 26262 Road Vehicles - Functional Safety | ISO 26262:2018 |
| International Standard ISO/SAE 21434 Road Vehicles - Cybersecurity Engineering | ISO/SAE 21434:2021 |
| IATF 16949: Automotive Quality Management Systems | IATF 16949:2016 |
Note: make sure you do not add any additional spaces in the workspace name.
