SAE International – Your source for Integrated Vehicle Health Management Solutions

SAE International is responsible for such internationally adopted aerospace documents as AS, AMS, AIR, and ARPs. In the ground vehicle industry, it plays the central role in developing essential North American standards and bringing them to the global standards table. Now, from the world’s largest, most respected consensus standards development organization, comes the first holistic, systematic approach to vehicle health management.

An end-to-end capability that transforms system data into operational support information, Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) and related standards allow for the analysis and diagnosis of a vehicle and the understanding of how a failed structure or piece of equipment impacts the vehicle’s overall health. Use of IVHM has the ability to enhance vehicle safety and reliability as well as extend product life — with maintenance and fleet management benefits.

With its roots in aerospace, IVHM is already changing aircraft design and transforming organizations’ manufacturing and operations. And, its use is rapidly being implemented in the ground vehicle and marine craft industries.

As SAE International continues to develop a body of standards to enable IVHM technology development, it also is building a collection of resources to further this technology and the economic advantages it can bring to the mobility industry.
