KAWASAKI and MIAMI – Palantir Technologies Inc. and Fujitsu Limited announced the renewal of their strategic partnership, with a deeper investment in the capabilities needed to help enterprises in Japan and around the world. In connection with the partnership, Fujitsu has signed a new agreement with Palantir Technologies Japan KK for Palantir AIP and Palantir Foundry and will serve as a Global FDE Partner.
As demand for sovereignty grows, enterprises need greater control over their data, models, infrastructure, and operations. Palantir platforms connect AI models to governed data, Ontology-powered workflows, access controls, auditing, and customer-controlled deployment environments, helping Palantir and Fujitsu deliver trusted AI applications.
Fujitsu implemented a supply chain resilience solution for a leading Japanese manufacturer using Palantir platform, integrating data across more than 3,000 suppliers, 18 factories, and previously siloed enterprise systems without disrupting operations. By combining Palantir’s platform capabilities with Fujitsu’s domain expertise and AI technologies, the customer achieved over $10 million in cost savings within one year, doubled operational productivity, and significantly accelerated disruption response and decision-making.
Fujitsu is making a significant investment in building Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) capabilities with Palantir for customers in Japan and around the world. Fujitsu will bring its own AI technologies, including the large language model Takane, extensive industry knowledge, Uvance offerings, and experienced Palantir professionals to support customers adopting Foundry and AIP and helping them develop custom AI applications within sovereign, production-grade architectures.
“This partnership is about bringing Palantir’s sovereign AI [1] architecture to Fujitsu’s customers across Japan,” said Kevin Kawasaki, Global Head of Business Development at Palantir Technologies. “Fujitsu is investing in the deployed engineering capabilities needed to help enterprises build custom AI applications and models on AIP and Foundry, grounded in their own data, workflows, and governed within their own operational environments.”
Yoshinami Takahashi, Corporate Executive Officer, Corporate Vice President, COO, Fujitsu Limited said, “Through our strategic partnership with Palantir since 2020, Fujitsu has strengthened its ability to translate data and AI into tangible business outcomes. FDE professionals have attracted increasing attention in recent years, but we understand that Palantir pioneered and established this concept. Through our collaboration with Palantir, Fujitsu has learned the role of FDEs, how they create value, and the engineering and other capabilities they require. Based on this knowledge, we have built an FDE framework capable of rapidly delivering results at customer sites, going beyond the simple introduction of technology. Fujitsu’s FDE professionals have also earned recognition from customers not only in Japan but overseas, giving us confidence that their expertise and execution capabilities are globally competitive. Through this expanded collaboration, we will bring together the knowledge and execution capabilities of both companies to help more customers translate AI transformation into tangible and sustainable outcomes.”
The companies will continue to collaborate on customer engagements in Japan and around the world, with Fujitsu bringing its industry expertise, services capabilities, and deployed engineering capabilities to organizations adopting Foundry and AIP, while driving business transformation through Uvance by connecting data, AI, and frontline operations to help customers achieve sustainable growth and strengthen their competitiveness.
