\n\tWith thousands of Google Cloud-certified IBM consultants and forward-deployed engineers, the practice will help enterprises deploy AI solutions, modernize legacy environments, and manage technology across complex hybrid landscapes.<\/p>\n
\n\tThis represents a multi-billion-dollar opportunity for IBM and Google Cloud, with each bringing unique strengths that matter to clients.<\/p>\n
\n\tIBM is creating a portfolio of industry-specific- AI agents built on IBM Consulting Advantage and optimized for Gemini Enterprise. These agents support use cases for banking, government, retail, telecommunications, energy, security, insurance, and life sciences, helping organizations automate workflows, improve decision-making, and accelerate autonomous operations powered by Gemini models.<\/p>\n
\n\tWith the new partnership, IBM consultants can now design, build, and govern enterprise-grade AI agents directly on Google Cloud. Pre-built assets, reusable agents, and proven transformation methods from IBM can be combined with Google Cloud\u2019s agent runtime, governance controls, and enterprise safety features, helping organizations move from design to deployment with enhanced speed and consistency.<\/p>\n
\n\tIBM and Google Cloud have already partnered on major migration and modernization efforts, including work with Airbus, where IBM consultants and Google Cloud helped transition two aerospace businesses into fully independent operations in under 18 months by updating more than 100 critical systems across engineering, manufacturing, customer service, and other regulated functions.<\/p>\n
\n\tIBM Consulting will help develop common interface patterns and solutions that connect enterprise data into Gemini using an open and flexible approach by integrating technology from IBM and its ecosystem. These interfaces can be tailored for each client\u2019s architecture, helping organizations unify their data while more easily scaling Gemini-based AI capabilities.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe practice focuses on several priority areas:<\/p>\n
\n\t
\n\t\tProduction-ready AI and data: Helping clients build foundations that support real, skilled AI systems, rather than pilots, by combining IBM\u2019s industry knowledge and AI assets with Google Cloud\u2019s Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform and BigQuery.
\n\t
\n\t\tIndustry-specific solutions: Delivering AI and data capabilities for sectors such as aerospace, financial services, government, healthcare, and telecommunications. This includes Confluent to stream and govern real-time data so AI systems can optimize operations, anticipate risk, and deliver outcomes tailored to each industry\u2019s regulatory demands.
\n\t
\n\t\tModernizing cybersecurity operations: Providing AI-driven defense and security capabilities intended to strengthen readiness and accelerate response.
\n\t
\n\t\tHybrid cloud modernization: Updating critical workloads across on-premises and cloud environments, including for highly regulated industries. Red Hat OpenShift is now available directly in the Google Cloud Console.
\n\t
\n\t\tEnhanced AI-powered workflows: Integrating Gemini with watsonx Orchestrate to improve decision automation and agent intelligence, and into watsonx.data to give clients more flexible ways to generate insights to support smarter applications.
\n\t
\n\t\tOperational resilience and governance: Using IBM automation, supported by HashiCorp and Apptio, with Google Cloud AI to support improved monitoring, compliance, and performance.

\n\t\tMohamad Ali, Senior Vice President and Head of IBM Consulting<\/p>\n
\n\t\tEnterprises are facing one of the most complex modernization cycles in decades. By expanding our work with Google Cloud, we\u2019re giving clients a clearer and more reliable path to scale AI across their business, combining deep industry expertise, hybrid-cloud modernization, and an AI-first delivery platform.<\/p>\n
\n\t\tKevin Ichhpurani, President, Global Partner Ecosystem at Google Cloud<\/p>\n
\n\t\tThis partnership significantly expands the pool of expert Google Cloud consultants in the market to meet surging demand for AI. By combining Google\u2019s agentic infrastructure with IBM\u2019s deep industry expertise and proven delivery frameworks, we are ensuring joint customers can move beyond pilots to deploy and govern production-grade AI agents across their entire cloud environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
