Programming Research Limited (PRQA) was a United Kingdom-based developer of code quality management software for embedded software, which included the static program analysis tools QA·C and QA·C++, now known as Helix QAC. It created the High Integrity C++ software coding standard. In May 2018, the company was acquired by Minneapolis, MN–based Perforce, and its products were renamed.[1]
