ASPICE SUP.1 Quality Assurance
Get Started with This SkillOverview
Elaborate ASPICE SUP.1 work products: QA plan, audit/review records, and noncompliance reports for Automotive SPICE (VDA PAM 4.0).
Getting Started
Add your source materials to the project workspace, then activate the ASPICE SUP.1 Quality Assurance skill. The agent will guide you through the process step by step.
Example Conversation
You: We need to document our QA plan and audit results for SUP.1 for the upcoming ASPICE assessment. We’ve done a few process audits but they’re only in meeting notes.
Agent: I’ll help you elaborate SUP.1 work products. I need: (1) Which processes and work products are in QA scope (e.g. SYS.1–SYS.5, SWE.1–SWE.5, MAN.3); (2) Audit/review schedule (e.g. per milestone); (3) Criteria — e.g. ASPICE base practices, internal standards; (4) Any existing audit notes or noncompliance findings to turn into formal records.
You: Scope is all SYS, SWE, MAN.3, SUP.8, SUP.9. We audit at each baseline. We have notes from the requirements baseline review — two minor noncompliances.
Agent: I’ve created
quality-assurance-plan.mdwith scope, schedule, and criteria. I’ve addedaudit-records.mdand populated one record from your requirements baseline review (date, scope, outcome). I’ve created two noncompliance reports (NC-001, NC-002) from your notes with description, severity, recommended action, and owner. You can add closure evidence (e.g. re-review) when the actions are done. Should I add a template for the next audit (design baseline)?
Sample Output Excerpt
Below is a representative excerpt from SUP.1 QA plan and noncompliance reports.
QA plan (excerpt)
| Item | Content |

| Schedule | Audit at requirements baseline (Mar), design baseline (Jun), integration (Sep), qualification (Nov) |
| Criteria | ASPICE PAM 4.0 base practices; internal doc control and traceability standards |
Noncompliance report (excerpt)
| ID | Description | Severity | Action | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NC-001 | Traceability matrix missing source for SN-003 | Minor | Add UNECE R156 source; re-baseline | Open |

Validation
This skill does not include extension tools. Validation is performed by following the Validation checklist in the skill workflow: QA plan defines scope, schedule, and criteria; audit/review records exist for planned activities; every noncompliance has a report and closure evidence or open status; results are communicated to stakeholders.
