“The ability to use optimal large language models to synthesize,
analyze, and contextualize data in a responsible and ethical way
offers boundless opportunities for the federal government to
jumpstart new capabilities and transform their operations,” said
John Goodman, CEO of Accenture Federal Services. “We look forward
to helping clients rapidly prototype, build, automate, and scale AI
to speed content discovery and summarization, modernize interactive
call center chat, and ultimately deliver more intuitive and
seamless end user experiences.”
Signaling the next phase of an expanded strategic alliance
between Accenture Federal Services and Google Public Sector, the
Data & AI Center of Excellence delivers mission-focused
expertise, specialized data and AI experts, and access to
cutting-edge technologies including Google's language models,
Vertex AI platform, and AI-optimized infrastructure. Clients will
also have access to Google Cloud’s AI-powered code generation tools
to streamline the software development processes.
“Federal agencies are rich with data, and many require
cutting-edge data management capabilities to successfully deploy
and unlock the tremendous potential of AI,” said Karen Dahut, CEO
of Google Public Sector. “Google was built on pioneering AI
research and the principle of making the world’s data accessible
and useful. We’re thrilled to co-launch the Data & AI Center of
Excellence, empowering clients with state-of-the-art capabilities
to deliver successful mission outcomes.”
In 2023, Accenture Federal Services and Google Public Sector
announced the launch of a Cybersecurity Center of Excellence,
powered by the front line threat intelligence of Mandiant, to help
U.S. federal agencies rapidly detect and respond to increasingly
sophisticated cyberattacks. Since the Cybersecurity Center of
Excellence’s creation, the companies have invested in skilling and
solutioning, and they have partnered on multiple federal
cybersecurity initiatives. Google and Accenture have partnered on a
global basis since 2018.
Accenture Federal Services is a subsidiary of Accenture (NYSE:
