Make battery validation planable

The most expensive mistakes in battery validation happen before the lab: missed requirements, missing coverage, conflicts between standard and spec sheet. Cevelar finds them early and derives a defensible test plan — so the lab campaign runs once, not three times.

Context

Validation before the lab gets expensive

Battery validation is the chain cell, module, pack, system, transport. Each level has different standards, samples and institutes. If you only notice missing propagation or EMC in the lab, you pay calendar time, not only slot prices.

Cevelar makes coverage visible: which requirements are mapped, which gaps sit between spec and evidence. That complements test houses. It does not replace them. Arc runs campaigns.

Impact

Run the lab campaign once.

Fewer duplicate tests Complete plan before booking
Less rework Gaps before the audit, not in it

Roles

Test lab vs. Cevelar

Test lab (FEV, Fraunhofer, Kiwa …)

  • RoleRuns the tests
  • InputNeeds a complete test plan
  • RiskRework when the plan has gaps

Cevelar

  • RolePlans coverage; Arc orchestrates partners
  • OutputTest plan — optionally the campaign
  • EffectInstitutes test, Arc runs the chain
  1. Complete? Is every obligation from the spec sheet captured in a testable requirement?
  2. Covered? Does every requirement have a test case — or does a gap stay clearly flagged?
  3. Conflict-free? IEC 62619 vs. UN 38.3 vs. OEM stress profile — avoid duplicate tests.
  4. Provable? Is traceability ready for audit and ASPICE before anyone asks?

For heads of validation

Coverage is not a feeling.

Early gap and conflict detection, cost and sequence estimates for the lab campaign, and export for Polarion, Jira, or audit. Cevelar delivers this from the spec, EU-hosted — as the planning layer ahead of your test houses.

FAQ

Battery validation questions

Levels, coverage and the lab.

What does battery validation mean here?

Planning evidence across cell, module, pack and system against the spec, UN 38.3, IEC 62619 and OEM profiles. Not running every individual test.

Why coverage before the lab?

Missing test cases are cheap before booking and expensive after. Rebooks and retests move SOP.

How does this relate to ASPICE?

ASPICE requires bidirectional traceability. Without a spec ID on the test case, audit risk remains even if the lab is green. Guide: ASPICE traceability.

Who runs the tests?

Accredited institutes. Cevelar holds the plan and the chain. Arc can take parallel slots and logistics.
