TCS And GitLab To Orchestrate AI For Faster Software Delivery

04 Mar 2026 CW Team

The cornerstone of the collaboration is the GitLab Duo Agent Platform, which enables organisations to orchestrate agentic AI automation across the software lifecycle. The platform provides agentic chat, foundational agents prebuilt by GitLab experts, custom agents for complex development tasks and integration with external AI tools. TCS will build industry-specific AI workflow templates and pre-built agents to accelerate adoption and time-to-value.

The partnership will also focus on modernising legacy development practices and consolidating fragmented tool chains using GitLab's unified DevSecOps platform. TCS will apply proven methodologies and GitLab's scalable architecture to support large-scale migrations and transformations for global enterprises with multi-team development environments. Centres of excellence will provide enablement, change management and ongoing enterprise support.

The association is expected to benefit telecommunications, media, financial services, retail, manufacturing, healthcare and public sector organisations by modernising operations and building efficient workflows. For telecommunications and media providers it seeks to accelerate deployment of five G services and modernise content delivery platforms, while in financial services it aims to enable faster innovation for core banking systems without compromising compliance. GitLab has more than 50 million (mn) registered users and more than 50 per cent of the Fortune 100 trust the platform. The partners will offer assessments, migration roadmaps, custom agent development and managed platform services to help enterprises adopt AI-powered DevSecOps practices.

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and GitLab Inc. (GitLab) have formed a partnership to use intelligent orchestration and agentic AI automation to accelerate software innovation at scale. The collaboration will combine TCS's AI-led enterprise transformation capabilities with GitLab's pre-built AI agents and orchestration features to speed software delivery and strengthen security. The partners intend to enable orchestration of AI agents across the entire software development lifecycle within organisational context, standards and guardrails.
