New Delhi: Indian IT giant Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) on Thursday announced a global strategic partnership with US-based AI company Anthropic, making Claude available to 50,000 employees across all divisions as part of its company-wide AI implementation strategy.
TCS said it will establish a dedicated business unit to provide joint industry solutions and deep AI expertise on the Claude family of models through early access to Claude models.
Additionally, he said the partnership aims to move AI projects beyond pilots in regulated industries.
“TCS’ combined governance, control, and implementation expertise will enable enterprises to confidently deploy Claude in production environments as well as experiments,” the IT company said.
By combining large-scale internal implementation, joint go-to-market services, industry co-innovation and employee support, this partnership gives clients a realistic path to enterprise-wide adoption and measurable outcomes, the company added.
This partnership also extends to TCS products, platforms, and domain-specific solutions.
Diligenta, TCS’ FCA-regulated life and pensions business in the UK, serving more than 22 million life and pensions customers, will use Claude to improve customer experience through agent process transformation at scale.
Additionally, BFSI product and platform teams leverage Claude Code to improve software engineering and IT operations productivity.
TCS will also bring domain-driven engineering expertise to the Claude Code ecosystem through reusable skills and plugins, including features such as claims adjudication and loan recommendations.
K. Krithivasan, CEO and MD, TCS said, “The value of enterprise AI comes from understanding business context, orchestrating complex systems, and leveraging deep AI engineering talent.”
The partnership will help customers move into production faster, especially in industries where reliability, resiliency and regulatory discipline are important, he added.
Dario Amodei, co-founder and CEO of Anthropic, said the partnership further deepens the company’s commitment to India, its second largest market.
“By combining Anthropic’s capabilities with the Tata Group’s scale, trusted relationships and commitment to nation-building, we will accelerate the reinvention of enterprises and equip India’s youth with the skills to lead in the age of AI,” said N. Chandrasekaran, Chairman, Tata Sons.
