Palantir and Fujitsu renew AI partnership, expand global FDE role
Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) and Fujitsu Limited (TSE: 6702) announced the renewal of their strategic partnership, with Fujitsu signing a new agreement with Palantir Technologies Japan KK covering Palantir AIP and Palantir Foundry, and taking on the role of Global Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) Partner.
The partnership, which originated in 2020, expands Fujitsu's investment in deployed engineering capabilities to serve enterprise customers in Japan and internationally. Fujitsu will incorporate its own AI technologies, including its large language model Takane, alongside its Uvance offerings and industry expertise, to support customers building custom AI applications on Palantir's platforms.
According to the press release, Fujitsu deployed a supply chain resilience solution for a Japanese manufacturer using Palantir's platform, integrating data across more than 3,000 suppliers and 18 factories. The customer reported over $10 million in cost savings within one year and doubled operational productivity.
Kevin Kawasaki, Global Head of Business Development at Palantir Technologies, said: "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 and Corporate Vice President at Fujitsu, said the company has built "an FDE framework capable of rapidly delivering results at customer sites, going beyond the simple introduction of technology," adding that Fujitsu's FDE professionals have received recognition from customers in Japan and overseas.
Fujitsu reported consolidated revenues of 3.5 trillion yen ($23 billion) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026.
