TCS and GitLab to Bring AI Orchestration for DevSecOps

04 Mar 2026 CW Team

The cornerstone of the collaboration is implementation of the Duo Agent Platform, which enables organisations to orchestrate agentic AI automation across planning, code, build, test and production. The platform offers agentic chat, foundational agents created by GitLab experts, and support for custom agents to automate complex development tasks, together with external agent integration. The partners noted integrations with third party tools such as Claude Code and Codex CLI and stressed the importance of governance and security controls embedded in the platform.

TCS will develop industry-specific AI workflow templates and prebuilt agents to enable faster adoption and time-to-value, and will leverage its proven methodologies to consolidate fragmented tool chains and modernise legacy development practices. The company will support large scale migrations and transformations for global enterprises, using its centres of excellence to provide enablement, change management and ongoing platform services. The services will include initial assessments, migration roadmaps, custom agent development and managed platform operations.

The partnership was presented as relevant across sectors including telecommunications, media, banking, retail, manufacturing, healthcare and the public sector, with expected benefits in accelerating five G rollouts, modernising content and customer experience platforms and enabling compliant innovation in core banking systems. GitLab reported more than 50 million (mn) registered users and that more than 50 per cent of the Fortune 100 use the platform. TCS operates in 55 countries with 202 service delivery centres and will leverage that scale to support joint customers.
