MISRA began as a collaboration between vehicle manufacturers, component suppliers and consultancies.

Membership of working groups now consists of members from other industries in the safety-related embedded systems world in addition to automotive companies. Please consult the individual working group pages for full details.

MISRA is a collaboration between manufacturers, component suppliers and engineering consultancies which seeks to promote best practice in developing safety- and security-related electronic systems and other software-intensive applications. To this end MISRA publishes documents that provide accessible information for engineers and management, and holds events to permit the exchange of experiences between practitioners.
