Road vehicles - Extended vehicle (ExVe) methodology - Part 3: Upstream process to develop services

This document describes the process to initiate and facilitate the communication between independent stakeholders and vehicle manufacturers (VMs), whereby service providers (SPs) express the intention to obtain data and functions access from the ExVe interfaces for the purpose of developing services. Data and functions of the vehicle are basic information that are key for the development of services for the vehicle owner, driver, and user. Vehicle data and functions, in this context, comprises onboard, offboard or a combination of the two. This document, in conjunction with ISO 20077-1 and ISO 20077-2, describes the full process for the provision of data and functions access from the ExVe interfaces between the SP and the VM. All the situations where requested data and functions are dedicated to internal development and design or product quality improvements from the VMs' and suppliers' side, when they are not acting as service providers, are excluded from this document. Also, commercial aspects are out of the scope of this document.

Overview

ISO/TS 20077-3:2024 - Road vehicles - Extended vehicle (ExVe) methodology - Part 3: Upstream process to develop services - defines a standardized, vendor-neutral process to initiate and facilitate requests from service providers (SPs) to vehicle manufacturers (VMs) for access to vehicle data and functions via Extended Vehicle (ExVe) interfaces. The Technical Specification complements ISO 20077-1 and ISO 20077-2 and focuses on the upstream steps: identification, request submission, confidentiality, basic need expression, VM analysis, iterative co‑design, and decisions on service deployability. Commercial negotiation and internal VM/supplier R&D use cases are explicitly excluded.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Request initiation and identification form: SPs are expected to complete a minimum identification template (Annex A) on the VM’s web entry point to clarify the requester profile and use case intent.
  • Findability and keywords: VMs should publish clear contact/process pages and use searchable keywords (Annex B) to improve discovery of ExVe access points.
  • Confidentiality: Mutual confidentiality agreements (e.g., NDAs/MoUs) are recommended to protect intellectual property during exchanges.
  • API catalogue and availability: VMs should supply an API catalogue for already available data/functions to expedite access without repeating the full request process.
  • Basic need expression: Use the technical request template referenced in ISO 20077-2 to describe use cases, especially where safety and security are involved.
  • Response timelines and communication: VMs shall acknowledge requests within 15 working days and provide timely updates and a conclusive answer within a reasonable timeframe.
  • Co-design iterative process: SPs and VMs engage in iterative negotiation to determine feasibility, acceptable compromises, data/function limits, and implementation constraints.
  • Service deployability decision: Parties jointly assess viability; if viable, they proceed toward technical implementation (and potentially contractual phases). If not, the VM must justify refusal.
  • SLA guidance: Application of SLA principles per ISO/IEC 20000-1 is recommended for operational service delivery expectations.

Applications and who uses it

  • Primary users: Service providers, vehicle manufacturers, offering parties (API/platform providers), and suppliers integrating with ExVe interfaces.
  • Secondary stakeholders: telematics firms, fleet operators, mobility-as-a-service (MaaS) developers, regulators and integrators who need a repeatable upstream process to request vehicle data or functions.
  • Practical benefits: faster onboarding of third‑party services, clearer legal/technical expectations, reduced time-to-market for telematics and mobility services, and a structured co‑design path to resolve technical, legal, or safety constraints.

Related standards

  • ISO 20077-1 (ExVe architecture and concepts)
  • ISO 20077-2 (technical request template and downstream access provisions)
  • ISO/IEC 20000-1 (service level agreement best practices)
  • ISO 20078-1 (related terminology for connected vehicles)

Introduction
There is a need to facilitate starting a process of requesting data and functions from the various interfaces
of the extended vehicle as defined in ISO 20077-1.
It is indeed useful to help any requesting party to quickly find the right way to express their needs towards
the right place or the right resource provider without wasting time due to the multiplicity of providers.
This document is intended to facilitate the communication process between independent stakeholders
and vehicle manufacturers (VMs), whereby service providers (SPs) seek to acquire data for the purpose of
developing services.
The proposed process and template aim at helping to initiate a request by independent stakeholders and/or
SPs for data and functions made available by the VMs or their offering parties.
