Solution
Functional Safety for Automotive. Inside Polarion. Assessment-Ready by Design.
An assessor will ask how a safety goal became a requirement — and expect the trace to hold. Nextedy brings ISO 26262 safety work into Polarion — HARA, safety goals and ASILs on the same record as the requirements they drive.

Problem
The Core Question: How Many of Your System Requirements are Really Born from Risk?
General Safety-Critical Systems
30–60 %
High-Integrity Systems
60–80 %
Regulated IT/Automation Systems
40–70 %
Cybersecurity Requirements
80–100 %
In automotive, safety requirements are born from HARA: hazards become safety goals, safety goals carry ASILs, and every functional and technical safety requirement must trace back to one — and forward to its verification.
The Work Exists. The Evidence Chain Is Fragile.
60–80% of requirements come from risk analyses, yet most organizations run them in separate spreadsheets, disconnected from requirements.
Risk, requirements, and verification drift apart; traceability becomes manual; audits turn into fire drills.
Solution
One Engineering Record. From Hazard to Evidence.
Requirements, Risks, and Verification — One System.
Safety goals create safety requirements. Requirements need verification. When HARA and FMEA live in the same system as both, the chain — hazard → safety goal (ASIL) → requirement → test → residual risk — is already linked, in one view. Traceability becomes a by-product of engineering: it’s a column the analyst already sees.
Eliminate exports and silos
Improve collaboration across safety, engineering, and V&V
Connect HARA and FMEA directly to downstream work
Feels Like Excel. Behaves Like a Database.
Analysts think in rows. Assessors think in records. You shouldn’t have to choose. RISKSHEET gives your team the spreadsheet ergonomics they know — while every row is a live Polarion Work Item: traced, versioned, permission-controlled. S×E×C and ASIL determination recalculate as you type; threshold colors surface the highest risks at a glance.
Reduce the learning curve
Manage large HARA sheets and detailed FMEAs efficiently
Get instant feedback from live calculations and evaluations
Every Analysis. One Record. Your Interpretation.
The tool doesn’t prescribe your process — the template does. Run each analysis your safety case requires — HARA (ISO 26262: S×E×C → ASIL → safety goals), design and process FMEA per AIAG-VDA, safety analyses at system, hardware, and software level — as connected sheets over the same live Polarion data. Configure fields, scales, ASIL logic, formulas, and workflows to how your organization interprets the standard.
Start from best-practice templates
Adapt fields, logic, and workflows to your process
Drive consistency across teams and programs
A Risk Isn’t Closed When It’s Rated.
It’s closed when its safety goal, requirement, verification, and residual risk are connected. In RISKSHEET, a safety measure becomes a live Polarion work item with an owner, a workflow state, and a due date — its status mirrored back into the sheet.
Configure review and approval flows
Trigger notifications automatically
Maintain a clear audit trail for every change
Not “HARA Once.” Evidence That Survives Change.
Safety evidence is a lifecycle obligation: it must stay maintained as the vehicle changes. Baseline at every milestone, compare revisions, and see exactly which hazards, requirements, and verifications a change touches.
Baseline assessments at key milestones
Compare revisions instantly
Support change impact analysis
The Safety Case — Generated, Not Assembled.
Your safety case should be read from maintained engineering data — not reconstructed before the assessment. Generate work products, HARA reports, FMEA workbooks, traceability matrices, and audit trails on demand.
Export HARA, FMEA, and audit trails
Keep reports accurate and up to date

How Are Products Licensed?
As an annual software subscription. Active users of a given app need a Named Active User license for that product; a Connect license is required per server and gives every Polarion user read-only access to that app's views as a report. A commercial license covers one production instance on one Polarion server, including a load-balanced or multi-node cluster.

HARA sees the hazard. TARA sees the threat. Increasingly, one control serves both — a V2X message authentication control is a cyber control and a safety mechanism. ISO/SAE 21434 and UNECE R155 expect cybersecurity risk managed with the same lifecycle discipline as safety. Nextedy runs both lifecycles on the same Polarion record, with a bridge between them.
