Palantir and Accenture Federal Services partner

On June 30, Palantir and Accenture Federal Services, a leading U.S. federal technology company and subsidiary of Accenture LLP, announced a landmark strategic partnership, naming Accenture Federal as a Palantir preferred implementation partner for U.S. federal government customers.

Together, the companies will deploy commercial-grade, AI-powered solutions to address federal agencies’ highest priority operational challenges, from optimizing and orchestrating mission-critical workflows to enhancing decision-making and increasing operational resilience. As part of the collaboration, Accenture Federal Services and Palantir will partner to train and certify Accenture Federal’s Data & AI team of 1,000 professionals on Palantir Foundry and Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) to establish a premier joint delivery capability of cutting-edge automation for the federal government.

“Accenture Federal is a natural Palantir partner,” said Dr. Alex Karp, co-founder and CEO of Palantir Technologies. “Accenture and Palantir are both committed to creating value for America by delivering product-driven outcomes.”

“What makes this partnership so uniquely powerful is Accenture’s expertise working with the federal government and our ability to bring commercial capabilities to government solutions, combined with Palantir’s deep experience in government software,” said Julie Sweet, chair and CEO of Accenture. “Together, we will harness the ever-growing power of AI to help the federal government succeed in its critical mission to modernize and reinvent its operations—with stronger data flows, transparency and resilience—to better serve warfighters, citizens and all its stakeholders.”

“The world is getting more dangerous, and we need to provide America’s warfighters with cutting-edge AI computing and solutions in order to enhance deterrence,” said Mike Galagher, head of defense for Palantir Technologies. “This partnership will empower those warfighters with information and analytics, allowing them to fight smarter.”

“This is a game changer for both companies, but more importantly, it’s a game changer for our federal customers,” said Ron Ash, CEO of Accenture Federal Services. “We’re investing in building a scalable capability with Palantir that will deliver AI-enabled decision-making capabilities directly into the fabric of government agencies so leaders can act decisively and deliver greater results faster.”
