Our Vision

About ASAM

ASAM e.V. (Association for Standardization of Automation and Measuring Systems) is a non-profit organization that promotes standardization of tool chains in automotive development and testing. Our members are international car manufacturers, suppliers, tool vendors, engineering service providers, and research institutes. ASAM standards are developed by experts from our member companies and are based on real use cases. ASAM is the legal owner of these standards and is responsible for their distribution and marketing.

 

ASAM standards span a wide range of use cases in automotive development, test, and validation. They define file formats, data models, protocols, and interfaces. The standards enable easy exchange of data and tools within and across tool chainsThey are applied worldwide.

We pursue the vision that tools of a development process chain can be freely interconnected and data can be seamlessly exchanged.

ASAM Vision

To accomplish this vision, ASAM provides a platform for experts to address challenges, to connect members, to coordinate work groups, and to develop, release, and maintain standards for a long-lasting benefit of its users. Our active community comprises more than 400 member organizations around the world. These members ensure that ideas with market relevance will progress into standards and that these standards are used worldwide.

Collaboration within ASAM

ASAM was founded in December 1998 by a group of passionate and visionary experts who exchanged technical ideas, drove standardization and laid out road maps for future standardization of interfaces for the development and testing of ECUs. The fast growing membership and the increasing number of standards developed within ASAM were proof of the importance of standardization.
 
Although now grown into an international organization, ASAM has preserved its personal and visionary character. Until today, the standards are developed by experts recruited from our member companies. It is the same passion and commitment of our members that continue to drive standardization.
