Software no longer supporting function, it’s becoming strategic engine behind mobility innovation: Report

New Delhi, Sep 8 (UNI) Software is no longer a supporting function–it’s becoming the strategic engine behind mobility innovation, says a report of Capgemini Research Institute themed ‘The Software-Driven Mobility Era: Beyond Vehicles.’
“ As consumer expectations toward seamless, connected digital experience and digital-native players redefine the competitive landscape, traditional automotive organizations must evolve into software-centric enterprises,” the report said.
This report noted that less than half of automotive organizations have scaled their Software-Driven Mobility (SDM) initiatives in 2025:-34 pc have partially scaled at least one SDM use case, and just 14pc have scaled full-time deployment.
Jean Marie-Lapeyre, EVP and CTIO of the automotive industry, Capgemini, said, “The automotive industry is shifting from mechanical engineering to software-driven innovation. While most organizations see software as key to future competitiveness, legacy systems and fragmented architectures still impede progress."
He said delivering agile, secure, and compliant software at scale demands a rethink of organizational models, tools, and talent. "Companies that treat software as central to their business, standardize common functions, and retain control over differentiators can unlock new revenue and long-term resilience," he said.
“ Automotive organizations are increasingly recognizing the value of broader collaboration, with nearly two in five partnering with big tech and hyperscalers for critical software, cloud, and data capabilities," the report said.
The Capgemini Research Institute has a global presence with dedicated research centers in the US, UK, Singapore, and India. These centres are a part of a worldwide network of experts and serve as the focal point for the institute’s high-quality research and analysis on business trends and technology.
