Security & Privacy
Vehicles are connected with the world of internet of the things (IoT), which enables to use new functions within the vehicle. However, to be usable in mobility world, the vehicle systems must face several tough challenges in security and privacy.
Research & Development Process Consulting
R&D Process Consulting plays an important role in the Research & Development area, when quality assurance, time schedule, interdisciplinary product development as well as costs need to be managed at the same time.
Functional Safety (FSM)
Increasing complexity drives a the need for reliable functional safety management (FSM) in order to avoid or at least detect and mitigate malfunctions which would lead to any person being injured or killed.
Data Services
The Data Services business center of Continental Engineering Services bundles the learnings of Continental on how to establish a data culture into an innovative service offering.
Concept Development
Our concept development helps you to check all ideas for feasibility and efficient solutions. In addition, we give you recommendations to define these ideas more precisely, which developments are possible or already exist, what the market for corresponding solutions looks like and how the effectiveness of the solution can be optimized if necessary.
Requirement Engineering
Requirements engineering deals with discovering, eliciting, developing, analyzing, verifying, validating, communicating, documenting and managing requirements. CES requirements engineers are specialists in mediating between the domains of customers, developers or suppliers to establish and maintain the requirements to be met by the system, function, software or hardware of interest.
E/E-Architecture
Our specialists develop the appropriate technical E/E architecture based on your functional (logical) vehicle description. We ensure that this E/E architecture meets the desired standards.
Brake System Conception
Brake System Layout and Brake Component Recommendation In the context of vehicle development, the definition of the braking system plays a central role as it
Development

Hardware Engineering
We develop customized hardware solutions for a variety of industries. Our portfolio ranges from head-up displays up to industrial controls in various sectors.
Test & Simulations
In order to enable all necessary test scenarios of a modern development process in an efficient way, we have been staking on virtual environment tests in addition to our work in modern stationary test and test facilities and real test drives for many years.
This allows almost real conditions to be simulated as often as desired without interference with any parameter. Early verification and validation of algorithms, components and architectures minimizes, for example, the number of accidents initiated for testing purposes. It also enables thousands of virtual tests to be completed within the budget and time frame that is normally expected for real-world testing.
Virtual Vehicle Testing
CES provides solutions for virtual vehicle testing. Virtual vehicle workshop, virtual test facilities and broad experience add up to CES Virtual Testing & Simulation being your one-stop shop for virtual vehicle test.
Perception Development Kit (PDK)
For automated driving functions, 360° sensor coverage and central data fusion becomes inevitable. We offer a modular, off-the-shelf prototype solution for your development activities. A set of different hardware and software modules fit the kit for your individual application.
Driveline Performance Simulation
We offer a wide range of simulation services for driveline solutions always with the aim for efficiency, performance and innovation, allowing at the same time a reduction on development time and costs. This includes simulations on component, system and vehicle level.
Brake Systems Test and Validation
Brake Systems Test and Validation The actual behavior of the braking system can only be checked and evaluated in real vehicle installations. We would be
Manufacturing & Small Series
By representing the complete value chain, can deal with challenging projects in an efficient and flexible manner and to the highest quality level. From simple mechanical components and highly complex control devices in small series production, we combine the talent for mechanical, electronic and production engineering from a single source, production depth accounts for up to 100%.
Our technology pool includes advanced technologies, such as additive manufacturing, based on bionic constructions, electronics manufacturing, such as SMD assembly, and classical mechanics such as bending or punching technology. We select the most suitable production technologies and have the capabiltiy to combine them if required.
