Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has announced the launch of three new hubs in Europe to bolster its capabilities in the software-defined vehicles (SDV) space.
The new automotive delivery centres in Munich and Villingen-Schwenningen, Germany, along with an engineering centre in Romania, represent a strategic move to support the automotive industry's transition to next-generation mobility solutions.
The delivery centres in Germany will assist automakers in developing and deploying software-driven services for autonomous driving, infotainment, safety systems, and connected vehicle technologies.
The Romanian engineering centre will be dedicated to the design and creation of advanced automotive software platforms, fostering early-stage development and innovation.
This expansion is part of TCS' long-term strategy to enhance its comprehensive automotive software capabilities, including chip-to-cloud technologies and services.
The strategic placement of these centres enables TCS to collaborate closely with European OEMs and global automotive enterprises, offering nearshore capabilities.
TCS Internet of Things (IoT) and Digital Engineering senior vice president & global head Regu Ayyaswamy said: “These new centres will position TCS at the forefront of automotive innovation, enabling us to deliver state-of-the-art solutions in autonomous driving and advanced cockpit systems. This expansion reaffirms our commitment to leading the transformation in the Software-Defined Vehicles space.”
Currently, the new centres employ more than 100 skilled professionals who will join forces with more than 2,000 SDV Engineers across TCS' global locations.
This talent pool will contribute to the development of next-generation automotive platforms for digital cockpits, infotainment, advanced driver assistance systems, and other critical SDV functions, supporting the entire product lifecycle from concept through to production and ongoing support.
Having served European automotive customers for over 25 years, TCS has a well-established presence in the region's automotive hubs.
The company has been delivering innovative solutions in digital cockpits, electrification, autonomous vehicles, and connected car ecosystems, utilising digital engineering, IoT, cloud, and data analytics.
Additionally, TCS leverages Generative AI to expedite product development, enabling quicker innovation and greater personalisation in SDVs.
TCS Manufacturing president and business group head Anupam Singhal added: “The shift to software-defined vehicles marks a defining moment for the automotive industry. With the launch of these new centers, we are deepening our commitment to support OEMs in building the next generation of intelligent, connected, and sustainable vehicles.
