HCLTech announced a partnership with Anthropic on October 12 to establish a dedicated business unit and integrate Claude and Claude Code into select enterprise products. HCLTech said the unit will provide secure sandbox environments for client deployments and help train enterprise workforces.

HCLSoftware becomes an Anthropic independent software vendor partner under the agreement, with planned integrations spanning cybersecurity, automation and application development. Named products include HCL BigFix and HCL AppScan.

HCLTech also plans to integrate Claude and Claude Code into its AI Force platform for IT support, code remediation and digital employee services. Those workflows will use policy guardrails, exception handling and human oversight for high-impact changes.
