2026-02-24 - 07:23

Capgemini has announced a strategic partnership with OpenAI to support enterprises in deploying AI at scale using Frontier, OpenAI’s platform for building and managing AI agents across organisations. As a founding member of the OpenAI Frontier Alliance, Capgemini will focus on addressing non-technical barriers to enterprise AI adoption, including data readiness, operating models, governance, and systems integration. The partnership aims to help organisations move beyond experimentation towards consistent, enterprise-wide deployment of AI systems. Capgemini will combine its industry and process expertise with OpenAI’s research and product capabilities, including enterprise AI cloud services, agents, APIs, and ChatGPT Enterprise. The companies said the collaboration is intended to support the development of AI operating models and multi-agent workflows that deliver measurable business outcomes. The partnership comes as organisations shift from pilot projects to long-term AI investment. While AI capabilities have advanced rapidly, many companies continue to face challenges in scaling deployment due to gaps in data quality, organisational readiness, and domain expertise. Brad Lightcap “Our multi-year partnership with Capgemini will help bring AI coworkers to enterprises,” said Brad Lightcap, Chief Operating Officer at OpenAI. “Capgemini’s transformation and global delivery expertise alongside OpenAI’s research and product leadership will help close the gap between what frontier AI can do and what businesses can actually deploy with agents.” Aiman Ezzat, CEO of Capgemini, said the collaboration would strengthen the firm’s enterprise AI capabilities. Aiman Ezzat “By combining our domain expertise and assets with OpenAI’s models and platform, we aim to help clients deploy AI more effectively and at scale.” Capgemini will establish a dedicated enterprise delivery function aligned with OpenAI’s Forward Deployed Engineering team, supporting clients across sectors including financial services, consumer products, life sciences, and energy.
