We Define, Develop and Deliver!

Our customized power solutions are developed for applications that need cutting edge, reliable batteries and electronics. The batteries are custom designed and integrated in the products together with all needed electronics like chargers, displays, motor controls and power converters.

Alelion uses the development process called Metronome that ensures customer involvement, quality and speed. The process is based on the Scrum process from software development and is highly iterative and result oriented.

All platforms and technology comes from the automotive world that gives reliable, scalable and low cost solutions in a standardized environment.

The projects often start with a proof of concept part as the first iterations or sprints as they are called. This gives good answers of technical abilities, business cases and created customer values that need to be investigated. If the demo project is successful the first part is already done and the time to market is very short.

Metronome divides the development process into three phases:

Define and Design. This is the pre-study phase, with researching and specifying the requirements, dependent on battery purpose and objectives, i.e. what is the reason for having the battery, what does the OEM want to achieve, function, message, profile, performance, reach, schedules, etc. What are the limitations in cost, weight, size, life, time available for charging etc.

Deliverable from the pre-study is a battery system proposal, complete with actual design, development time schedule, cost targets, performance targets, etc.

Develop is the second phase, during which the proposal is realized. Deliverable is a prototype system, or a pilot production series of the complete system that can be verified for function and customers acceptance in field tests.

Deliver is the third phase, which means the reliable supply of batteries, BMU, MMI etc of good quality. Characteristic for Alelion’s solutions will be that they are simple and convenient. The design, handling, instrumentation should be extremely easy to understand and extremely easy to use. User should intuitively and directly be able to understand its functions and displays.

Displayed measurements should be exactly what the user needs to know, nothing more, and nothing less. (Of course, in service mode, for the skilled service technician, much more information should be available). Furthermore all products shall be built to adhere to high environmental standards. Quality shall be an integral part of all product development activities. All products shall be easy to service. All products shall be built with power preservation in mind.
