• As a Global Premier Partner in the Claude Partner Network, Cognizant brings the industry depth and delivery scale to take Claude from enterprise AI pilots to results in production
• Cognizant is embedding Claude across its own business and engineering platforms, while scaling a Claude-certified workforce as part of its new Frontier Certified workforce model
• Cognizant is already applying Claude in client work spanning manufacturing, life sciences and insurance, delivering measurable results in production

TEANECK, N.J., July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cognizant (NASDAQ:CTSH) announced an expanded strategic partnership with Anthropic, becoming one of a small number of Global Premier Partners in the Claude Partner Network. The expanded relationship builds on the partnership announced in late 2025.

The expanded partnership addresses the gap between model capability and companies' ability to drive business results. Closing that gap extends beyond model capability. It takes the domain context, engineering depth and delivery scale to embed AI into the systems enterprises already run on. That is the mandate Cognizant executes as an AI Builder.
