Harness Radar - quality validation
Harness Radar – Validation Service enables engineering teams at OEMs and Tier-1 harness suppliers to continuously validate wiring harness data against design rules and process requirements. It brings validation out of isolated tools and manual workflows into a service-based, automated quality gate – aligned with industry standards and ready for integration into modern engineering processes.
The Challenge: Validation Is Still Too Late, Too Manual, and Too Fragile
In many organizations, wiring harness validation is still:
- Executed manually or semi-manually
- Bound to standalone client tools
- Dependent on human-driven data exchange
- Difficult to integrate into automated workflows
- Hard to maintain as rules, data models, and standards evolve
The result is slow feedback, limited trust in validation results, and unnecessary iteration cycles. Errors that could be detected early often surface late – when fixes are expensive, schedules are tight, and downstream processes are already affected.
Validation as a Service – A Different Approach
Harness Radar introduces a service-oriented validation model tailored to wiring harness engineering. Instead of treating validation as a manual, tool-bound activity, it becomes a reusable, automated service that can be invoked whenever and wherever it is needed – by engineers, by systems, or by automated pipelines. Comparable to static code analysis in software development, validation becomes a continuous process rather than an one-time event.
Validation is executed as configurable pipelines, composed of modular building blocks: Pipelines can be parameterized and reused across different contexts, projects, or product variants. Harness Radar is designed to host and execute company-specific validation logic: This allows each organization to reflect its own engineering standards and downstream requirements — without modifying the core system. Harness Radar is built around industry standards, not proprietary data models. This standards-driven approach protects investments, simplifies integration, and reduces long-term dependency on individual tool vendors. Harness Radar fits into existing engineering landscapes without disrupting established authoring tools. Typical use cases include: Validation becomes a shared service — available whenever needed, without manual coordination. The user interface is designed as a convenience layer, not as a data authoring or viewing tool. It enables: This keeps the focus where it belongs: on reliable validation, not on replacing engineering tools. Harness Radar is designed to reduce dependency on monolithic tools and proprietary ecosystems. By separating validation logic from authoring environments and grounding it in open standards, organizations gain: Harness Radar – Validation Service is currently available only to pilot customers. We work closely with engineering teams to tailor validation rules, integrate workflows, and adapt the service to company-specific processes.What Harness Radar Delivers
