Gilead has partnered with Cognizant for more than three years to adopt technologies designed to drive better business outcomes. This includes technologies for running business operations, new product launches and improving IT processes for efficient research, manufacturing, and commercialization of its products.
Cognizant will continue to support Gilead in the following areas:
• Enhance the internal and external client experience with IT infrastructure, IT security and IT platform services.
• Expand cloud operations to support Gilead’s shift to cloud-computing environments as appropriate in collaboration with the hyperscalers.
• Leveraging Generative AI (GenAI) and AI automation to help enhance Gilead’s customer service experience and assist it in driving greater manufacturing efficiencies. The GenAI advances should enable Gilead to provide greater visibility and transparency about treatments to patients and internal employees globally. The company will leverage Cognizant’s Neuro IT service for AI automation innovation, which should help the company to bring products to market more efficiently.
• Will continue to provide support for all enterprise data and analytics platforms across all business functions, including the introduction of the latest and most relevant technologies to support differentiated business outcomes.
“Over the past three years, Cognizant has demonstrated quality delivery, adaptability and dedication to Gilead’s success,” said Marc Berson, senior vice president and chief information officer at Gilead Sciences. “Through this collaboration, Cognizant has provided critical expertise to progress our digital transformation journey while enabling stable, secure operations. This has allowed us to advance research and commercialization of transformative treatments for some of the world’s most challenging diseases. We look forward to expanding this partnership to advance to the next phases of our capability roadmap.”
“We’re excited about this expanded partnership with Gilead, one of the pharmaceutical industry leaders in adapting advanced technologies to better deliver transformative treatments for patients world-wide,” said Surya Gummadi, executive vice President and president, Cognizant Americas. “Working together our teams will be leveraging the latest technologies from automation to cloud computing, and Generative AI to help Gilead bring its products to market faster, more efficiently, and with higher customer satisfaction.”
