Tata Technologies and Wittenstein High Integrity Systems (WHIS) have announced a strategic partnership to integrate WHIS’s SAFE RTOS into Tata Technologies’ automotive software stack. The collaboration aims to help automotive OEMs and tier one suppliers meet ISO 26262 functional safety standards while accelerating the development of software-defined vehicles (SDVs).
SAFE RTOS, which WHIS describes as offering certifiable safety, reliability and real-time performance, will become a core component of Tata Technologies’ SDV platform. The companies say the partnership addresses the growing need for scalable, safety-certified software architectures that can support complex SDV ecosystems.
Tata Technologies says the integration will enable customers to adopt safety-certified SDV architectures faster. The company says the automotive industry is undergoing a transformation driven by electrification, autonomy, connectivity and the increasing centrality of software.
In a statement, Andrew Longhurst, Managing Director of Wittenstein High Integrity Systems, said: “Software is at the heart of the automotive industry’s evolution. Our partnership with Tata Technologies ensures that OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers can leverage SAFE RTOS to achieve the highest levels of safety and performance in their software-defined vehicle architectures.”
Nachiket Paranjpe, President of Automotive Sales at Tata Technologies, added: “By combining Tata Technologies’ expertise in automotive software development with WHIS’s proven safety solutions, we are empowering our customers to accelerate SDV adoption and deliver cutting-edge mobility experiences.”
