Embedded software is the center-point of a vast range of products manufactured across industries and quality software code is a necessity to ensure these products operate properly at all times. TCS ECA has been designed to combine TCS' leadership in engineering software solutions and services with Nissan's expertise in automotive software. TCS ECA is the most scalable product of its kind in the market today and can easily be customized to suit specific needs across industries.

TCS ECA helps manufacturers accelerate product development, produce more reliable products, reduce time-to-market, and lower costs attributed to software failure.. It helps the embedded software developer community improve the software quality and better comply with key regulations, such as MISRA-C and ISO 26262 in the automotive industry. TCS ECA automatically detects the coding defects which are difficult to identify through standard testing and review processes and are often very expensive to locate and fix if not detected early in the software development cycle.

According to Masaaki Miyashita, manager of the electronics engineering development division in Nissan: "Delivering high quality Nissan products, including the software embedded aboard our vehicles, is always a top priority. The latest version of the TCS ECA will help us address all pre-delivery defects in the early stages of development, with the ultimate goal of achieving zero defects."
