Cognizant says it has formed a global group of more than 25,000 staff to help clients build and run systems powered by Anthropic’s Claude. It is also introducing a managed-services model in which Cognizant operates those systems for clients, combining staff, licensed Claude access and its own tools.
The company says the service is designed to make AI costs more predictable and apply security and governance controls tailored to each client. Cognizant cites a project at a global pharmaceutical manufacturer where its Claude-powered agents cut manufacturing downtime by 35%; the company did not name the client.
Why it matters
For companies that lack staff to operate Claude-powered systems, Cognizant is offering to run them on their behalf; pricing and client eligibility are not specified.
