    • Objectives and expectations towards the IVP group
  • Recap and discussion on problem statements to be tackled within this group

    • Proposal 1: Standard for OEM and Third-Party Integration
      (as combination of the first 2 we discussed last time):

      • Problem Statement:
        Automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) encounter significant challenges in incorporating third-party service providers into their in-car entertainment ecosystems, compounded by the lack of a standardized approach for the integration of payment, billing, invoicing, and master data exchange processes. This complexity is further exacerbated when attempting to create a uniform API interface that allows third-party applications to conduct transactions for various use cases such as parking, charging, and purchasing food directly from the vehicle's interface. The absence of an industry-wide standard leads to each OEM and third-party provider independently tackling these issues, resulting in inefficiencies and a disjointed user experience.

      • Solution Proposal:
        The proposed initiative aims to tackle the dual challenges faced by OEMs and third-party service providers by establishing a common industry standard that not only streamlines the integration of services into in-car entertainment systems but also defines a standard API interface for third-party apps. This standard will facilitate seamless payment, billing, invoicing, and master data exchange, alongside ensuring technical integration is both efficient and scalable. By doing so, it will enable a consistent and user-friendly interface for in-car transactions across various services and applications, enhancing the overall digital experience within vehicles.

      • Potential Action Items:
        Convene a working group consisting of representatives from automotive OEMs, third-party service providers, app developers, and tier 1 suppliers to collaboratively define the scope and specifications of the proposed industry standard.
        Develop a comprehensive framework for the standardization of payment, billing, invoicing, and master data exchange processes, including technical integration guidelines.
        Define a uniform API interface that can be implemented by OEMs and/or app stores, ensuring compatibility and ease of integration for third-party applications.

    • Proposal 2: In-Car Wallet Interface for Apps:

      • Problem statement:
        OEMs face a challenge in standardizing an API interface that 3rd party apps can access to conduct payments usecases such as parking, charging, buying food etc.

      • Solution Proposal:
        Define a standard interface (APIs) that will be implemented by the OEM and/or app stores and tier 1s

    • Proposal 3: Relevant payment methods

      • Problem statement: 
        Validate if other payment methods than credit cars play a relevant role to be implemented as method for in-car payment

    • Proposal 4: OTA

      • Problem statement: 
        OEM face the issue that updates / replacements of rolled-out applications in vehicles is a problem. Typically not all relevant vehicles are updated and OTA.

      • Solution proposal: Define a consensus on huch much payment credential is stored in the vehicle vs. the cloud with all the implication to security, authentication, etc. .

  • Next steps
    • Group members to reflect on the problem statement the IVP group is aiming to work on
    • During next IVP call, the topic shall be defined and the agenda for the group workshop during the AMM working session shall be defined
  • Next events
    • COVESA All Member Meeting

    • Brief introduction of each member, their role, and organization they represent.
    • Objectives and expectations towards the IVP group
  • Proposed problem statements to be tackled within this group:
    • Proposal 1:
      • Problem Statement: OEMs face a challenge in integrating third-party service providers into their in-car entertainment systems, necessitating a complex process that involves payment, billing, invoicing, and master data exchange, along with technical integration between the entities. This issue is compounded by the lack of a standardized approach, resulting in each automotive OEM and third-party provider independently grappling with the same problem.
      • Solution proposal: To address the prevalent challenge faced by OEMs and third-party service providers in integrating services into in-car entertainment systems. This project aims to establish a common industry standard to streamline payment, billing, invoicing, master data exchange, and technical integration processes.
      • Action items:
    • Proposal 2:
      • In-Car Wallet Interface for Apps:

        • Problem:
          OEMs face a challenge in standardizing an API interface that 3rd party apps can access to conduct payments usecases such as parking, charging, buying food etc.

        • Solution Proposal:
          Define a standard interface (APIs) that will be implemented by the OEM and/or app stores and tier 1s
    • Proposal 3:
      • Validate if other payment methods than credit cars play a relevant role to be implemented as method for in-car payment
    • Proposal 4:
      • Problem statement: OEM face the issue that updates / replacements of rolled-out applications in vehicles is a problem. Typically not all relevant vehicles are updated and OTA. 
      • Solution proposal: Limit the app exposure in the vehicle and hold as much of logic and code as possible in the backend. As proposal for this group it should be discussed and an overall architecture approach which caters for this problem and defines how 3rd party app provide their solution → Frontend vs. Backend Integration.
