Secure Diagnostics enabled revenue streams
New regulations such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and Right-to-Repair are changing the economics of vehicle diagnostics. For OHW customers, secure and accessible diagnostic access is no longer optional – but without the right model, it is often treated only as a compliance cost. The real challenge is how to turn that required investment into a scalable business opportunity.
Key challenges
Compliance drives investment
CRA and Right-to-Repair require secure, accessible diagnostics and increase spending on tools, infrastructure, and compliance.
Diagnostics seen as cost only
Many organizations invest in access and security, but have no direct mechanism to generate return.
Service ecosystems are expanding
Maintenance is moving beyond OEM-controlled networks to workshops, fleets, and additional partners.
No monetization model in place
Many OHW customers lack a structured way to sell, manage, and scale diagnostic access.
Key benefits
Turns compliance into revenue
Converts required diagnostic infrastructure into a business model for paid access and services.
Supports ecosystem growth
Makes it easier to onboard more service partners beyond the traditional OEM-controlled network.
Reduces upfront investment
Lowers entry barriers through an ETAS partnership and shared-value model.
Creates recurring income
Enables continuous revenue from maintenance, updates, and ongoing diagnostic service usage.
