Functional safety standards such as ISO 26262 also require configuration and change management in models. LemonTree is used for this purpose in the software development of a leading German automotive supplier. The tool’s user-friendly features make the work of the developers much easier while reducing the rate of error. Especially in the automotive industry, verifiable compliance with functional safety standards such as ISO 26262 is essential.

This means that manufacturers and suppliers are also obliged to perform configuration and change management in their models. While Enterprise Architect has been in use in the company for a long time in the area of systems architecture, the platform is now increasingly finding its way into software development with the expansion by LemonTree. For this it was necessary, however, that LemonTree supports the company's own modelling language and also enables markups with defined safety levels.
