EPAM Systems Partners With Anthropic on Enterprise AI
NEWTOWN, Pa. — EPAM Systems has partnered with Anthropic to deliver enterprise AI solutions to corporate clients, the companies announced, expanding the AI maker’s reach through one of the industry’s largest IT integrators.
The partnership pairs EPAM (NYSE: EPAM), a global digital platform engineering and software development services company headquartered in Newtown, Pennsylvania, with Anthropic, the San Francisco-based maker of the Claude family of AI models. Under the arrangement, EPAM will integrate Anthropic’s AI technology into its enterprise service offerings for corporate customers, according to the Pennsylvania Business Report.
The deal reflects Anthropic’s effort to build out its enterprise channel through established IT services firms. As large organizations increasingly seek to deploy AI systems across their operations, partnerships with integrators like EPAM provide a pathway to reach clients that may lack the internal expertise to implement AI solutions independently.
EPAM, which reported approximately $6.7 billion in revenue in recent fiscal years, serves clients across financial services, healthcare, life sciences, and other regulated industries — sectors where enterprise-grade AI deployment requires significant customization and compliance considerations.
The move follows a broader trend among AI model providers to establish partnerships with systems integrators and consulting firms. Anthropic has previously forged enterprise relationships with Accenture, Amazon Web Services, and other technology services companies to accelerate adoption of its Claude models in corporate settings.
For EPAM, the Anthropic partnership adds another AI capability to its services portfolio as enterprise clients face growing demand to integrate generative AI into their workflows. The company has been expanding its AI and data practice amid increased client demand for implementation services.
The partnership underscores the growing importance of the enterprise channel for AI companies seeking to move beyond direct sales and API access to capture a larger share of corporate AI spending.
