According to Dasan DMC on November 12, Catena-X is a data-sharing ecosystem for the automotive industry built around German automakers such as BMW, Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz.


Under the agreement, the three companies will establish a cooperative framework to provide end-to-end support for Korean companies responding to Catena-X, from sales and platform onboarding to customized system development.


When customers expand their use cases and need customized solutions, Dasan DMC will provide system integration (SI), including in the DMZ segment. It will also support maintenance of the systems it builds, as well as security and infrastructure design, and handle technical consultations and project cost estimates with SI customers.


POSCO INTERNATIONAL will lead efforts to identify customers in Korea and overseas, as well as sales and marketing. As the contracting party that obtains the platform from IBCT and resells it to customers, it will serve as the primary point of contact for customer inquiries and share updates on Catena-X requirements from overseas automakers and parts suppliers.


IBCT will provide the Catena-X platform and handle technical onboarding tasks, including customer registration with Catena-X, issuance of Business Partner Numbers (BPNs) and connector setup. It will also be responsible for platform operations and maintenance, updates in response to changes in Catena-X standards, and maintaining Catena-X certification and partner status.



Kim Minseok Vice President of the Auto Business Division at Dasan DMC said, "By combining POSCO INTERNATIONAL's global sales network and IBCT's expertise in the Catena-X platform with Dasan DMC's know-how in SI and security and infrastructure development, we will actively support Korean companies in establishing a stable presence in the Catena-X ecosystem."
