Process expert track
intacs® Certified Automotive SPICE® Potential Analysis Training
A Potential Analysis evaluates the capability of a possible collaboration or partnership — supplier nomination, most often. It concentrates on engineering and technical areas and takes considerably less time than a full Automotive SPICE® assessment. The model is built on Automotive SPICE® and Automotive SPICE® for Cybersecurity. This course explains the Potential Analysis Process Reference and Assessment Model, and prepares participants to use it in intacs®- and VDA-accepted potential analysis work.
What it covers
- What the Potential Analysis PAM is for
- Its influence on the intacs® certification scheme
- Introduction and overview of the model
- The process dimension, including the guidelines
- The boundaries of the model — what it does not cover
- The rating mechanism defined in the Potential Analysis PAM
- Performing a potential analysis

Private and in-house training
If you have several people to certify, a venue in mind, or a need the public schedule does not fit, we run the course privately — in person or online — and tailor the content within the syllabus.

Practicalities
How certification works
The exam is not ours to award, and the distinction matters — we teach the syllabus and prepare you for an examination administered elsewhere.
The exam is administered by the VDA QMC — for most courses
Not by Envorso. Examination fees are additional to the training price, and the current fees are published by the VDA QMC. Online examinations are run over Zoom, and a working webcam is mandatory. Two courses differ and say so on their own entry: SPICE for Mechanical Engineering is examined by ECQA, and the Automotive SPICE® 4.0 Upgrade has no examination.
Certification is applied for separately
After passing, participants apply to the VDA for certification themselves. That step is independent of the training, and it carries its own fee.
Taught by practising assessors
Every course is delivered by experienced intacs® Certified Principal Assessors with real assessment practice behind them, who are also accredited intacs® instructors. Not by trainers who only teach.
What a place includes
Training documents and a confirmation of participation. Material is in English. For online delivery everything is supplied electronically as PDF.
