TÜV Rheinland and Certivity, an innovative regulatory technology (RegTech) company, aim to significantly simplify global approval processes for automotive manufacturers and suppliers. Therefore, the two companies form a strategic partnership and combine TÜV Rheinland’s industry expertise with Certivity’s AI-based software platform. The goal is to provide efficient, transparent, and scalable solutions for the approval of vehicles and vehicles parts in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.

As a result, the automotive industry can effectively reduce compliance risks and accelerate time-to-market.
