EPAM Advances Strategic Collaboration Agreement with AWS Focusing on Generative AI

Continued partnership will enable global enterprises to harness the transformative potential of AI from AWS

EPAM Systems, Inc. , a leading digital transformation services and product engineering company, today announced it expanded its strategic collaboration agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS) with a focus on developing generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) solutions to help enterprises more easily migrate workloads to AWS and modernize their applications.

The expanded collaboration, first established in 2023, will see EPAM work with AWS to harness its advanced generative AI services, including Amazon Bedrock, to allow customers to develop specialized AI agents and GenAI solutions to solve engineering and industry-specific issues, including modernizations. The agreement will also help EPAM to continue developing and refining AI-powered modernization, including automating workflows and tools through AI agents that help organizations seamlessly transition their infrastructure and data onto AWS quickly, securely and efficiently. Additionally, these efforts will help enterprises modernize their applications by becoming more cloud-native and scale and operationalize those applications from proof-of-concepts to working AI-enabled solutions.

For example, EPAM AI/Run™, a platform with ready-to-use tools, foundational capabilities, and pre-built agents, integrates with Amazon Bedrock. Amazon Bedrock, a fully managed service for building and scaling generative AI applications, offers the broadest selection of fully managed models, including Amazon Nova - a new generation of state-of-the-art foundation models (FMs) that deliver frontier intelligence and industry leading price performance. The integration allows customers to create custom agents for specific modernization tasks that automate complex workflows across application assessment, cloud-native transformation, and replatforming scenarios. This reduces manual effort and accelerates time-to-value.

"We are grateful for the recognition from AWS of our GenAI competencies and skills," said Elaina Shekhter, SVP, Chief Marketing & Strategy Officer at EPAM. "Moreover, we are thrilled to further expand our work with AWS, helping to accelerate the adoption of specialized AI agents and GenAI solutions on AWS to solve engineering and industry-specific issues."

"Our work with EPAM is key to helping global enterprises integrate and realize the value of AI agents and generative AI to transform their businesses," said Chris Sullivan, VP of Partner Management, Americas at AWS. "Through AWS's advanced and secure generative AI services, such as Amazon Bedrock, we can help customers modernize and meet their specific business objectives quickly and efficiently."

As an end-to-end provider of digital transformation services, EPAM's global team spans 55+ countries and leverages 15,000+ AWS-experienced engineers. Empowered by its comprehensive and innovative engineering and consulting services, it creates AWS solutions that fuel its clients' competitive advantage.

"The ongoing collaboration between EPAM and AWS enabled Cox Automotive to deliver multiple successful generative AI projects out of the gate, delivering innovative product capabilities that improve the efficiency and quality of our automotive services and solutions for our clients and consumers," said Brian Lloyd-Newberry, AVP Architecture at Cox Automotive. "We look forward to the continued benefits of this collaboration as EPAM continues to support our teams across Cox Automotive to continue delivering AI-powered products."
