Claude heads into the systems that quietly run the world
DXC has operated mission-critical IT for big banks, airlines, insurers, and governments for decades. Now it's making Claude the engine inside a lot of that machinery - under the same strict security and compliance rules its customers live by.
They proved it on themselves first
Before pointing Claude at clients, DXC put it to work across its own 115,000-person, 70-country operation. The proof point: the company says Claude wrote more than 95% of the code for DXC OASIS, its new AI-native orchestration platform for managed services, with human engineers reviewing the output. DXC estimates Claude sped that development by roughly 10x. OASIS already serves 50-plus customers, with Claude as the default model behind its agentic workflows.
An army of embedded, certified engineers
The centerpiece is people, not just software. DXC will train tens of thousands of forward-deployed engineers - staff embedded directly inside customer organizations - certified through Anthropic Academy, with DXC layering its own curriculum on the specific mission-critical systems its clients run. It's also joining the Claude Partner Network.
Where it starts
The alliance kicks off in four areas where DXC already runs heavy operations and Claude can deliver today:
- In insurance, using Claude for agentic solutions and to modernize core systems around each customer's context and operating model.
- Through Modernization as a Service, pointing Claude at legacy codebases to refactor and modernize them faster and more accurately than traditional methods allow.
- In cybersecurity, building an always-on security-engineer subagent on Claude Security for deployment across DXC's security operations centers.
- Across application services, embedding Claude into the application maintenance environments DXC manages for enterprise customers.
The bigger pattern
This is the second regulated-industry distribution deal Anthropic announced in as many days - TCS was the other - and together they underline a clear strategy: reach the Fortune 500 not one login at a time, but through the services firms that already run their plumbing. DXC's leadership framed it as a defining moment for the company, pairing 50 years of operating experience with frontier AI to offer customers something rivals can't easily match. For regulated buyers, that combination of trust and reach is the real product.
