Abstract

At Volvo Cars Cooperation, the vision to develop cars at a rapid pace is of upmost importance in the current competitive environment that is the automotive industry. Through implementation of new and innovative ways of relaying information and requirements between the stakeholders of the car development, more robust processes can be built to account for design changes throughout the development process in an easier and more time effective way. One example of such implementations is Engineering Templates. Through the use of an Engineering Template, requirements and demands from stakeholders can be communicated through a hierarchical information flow, were the information is shared through digital visualisation. This thesis has evaluated the possibility to create an Engineering Template for the Engine Bay area, with a focus of the possibility of using an Engineering Template when developing a front trunk compartment. The conclusion of this thesis is that it is possible to develop an Engineering Template for the purpose of sharing information and make development processes easier. By using an Engineering Template, especially in the upper area of the Engine Bay which is affected by tophat changes to a larger extent, the information flow and state of the revisions are clearer and better communicated.
