Our expertise for your in-car app

Our interdisciplinary team is at your side throughout the entire development process of in-car apps. Starting with the initial concept and architecture, we offer expert advice and provide mock-ups to give your concepts a tangible form. We then develop the corresponding specifications and the associated software design. During the development and implementation phases, we support you in all areas relating to the front end and the user interface, as well as in the development of the business logic, the use of frameworks and the connection of the backend. In addition, we are there to help you with all issues concerning test management, test automation, and error analysis. Alongside the actual development of your in-car app, we also take responsibility for supporting and maintaining the apps and developing them further if required. Throughout the entire development process, the quality of the software is Bertrandt’s top priority. Our experienced teams work flexibly and can respond at short notice to any changes in requirements.

Benefit from our interface expertise

Our expert organization combines all our competences, enabling us to provide you with a comprehensive package from a single source. Due to our many years of experience in the automotive environment, we can link this knowledge with our software and IT expertise. This also includes the interface to mobile apps and web applications, and we have also acquired broad expertise in their development.
In addition to our technological competence, you can also rely on our experience in agile project methods. A key component is the fact that we not only apply agile methods and practices, but also focus on agility as a mindset. In particular, agile development according to Scrum is a well-established framework for us. A Product Owner creates and maintains a Product Backlog, which prioritizes the targeted features of the app. In Sprint Planning, these are then broken down into individual requirements or user stories, which in turn are documented and planned in the Sprint Backlog. The actual development then takes place in iterative Sprints, with the result that new product extensions or increments can be continuously provided to the customer at short intervals. Finally, a Sprint Review or Retrospective takes place to enable the process to be reviewed.

Agile approach according to Scrum

We use state-of-the-art technologies

We are always at the cutting edge when it comes to development and implementation and use state-of-the-art technologies. For example, we use TypeScript, JavaScript, Node.js, Android Automotive, Apache Maven, Git, SonarQube, Jenkins and Docker. In addition, we make use of proven tools such as Jira & Confluence for reliable project control.
