Frequently asked questions
Clear answers to the most important questions.
How do the vehicle concepts differ?
Travel profile, duration of deployment, proportion of terrain, number of people, self-sufficiency and work requirements lead to different vehicle sizes and system architectures.
Is there a ready-made NORIQA standard concept?
No. Proven principles are used, but each concept is developed from the specific operational profile and realistic framework conditions.
How early should a vehicle concept be created?
Before purchase and expansion. An early concept shows whether the base vehicle, payload, body size and technical requirements fit together.
Can an existing concept be tested?
Yes. Designs and offers can be evaluated in terms of usage, weight, technology, maintainability and interfaces.
What role does subsequent maintenance play?
Access to technology, spare parts strategy and repairability are already taken into account in the concept phase.
How does the concept become a viable project?
Requirements, architecture and system decisions are gradually fleshed out and prepared for coordination with specialized partners.
