HCLTech has expanded its collaboration with SAP, aiming to accelerate the development of Physical AI solutions that bring intelligence directly into real-world industrial environments. The companies plan to work closely on next-generation use cases that blend AI with physical operations, particularly in sectors where automation, precision and faster decision-making are becoming essential.
The enhanced partnership is centered around integrating AI with day-to-day industrial activities, focusing on areas where digital systems can support smoother and more efficient workflows. One major area of work involves warehouse operations, where the two companies intend to co-develop AI-driven extensions that support automated picking, sorting and related tasks. The goal is to help warehouses operate with greater speed and consistency as supply chains grow more complex.
HCLTech and SAP are also exploring the use of multi-agent AI modeling for fleet management. This approach aims to help enterprises plan and operate their fleets more effectively, especially in logistics environments that depend on timely coordination and reduced operational friction.
Another important part of the collaboration is the development of embodied AI use cases for 3D reality capture. This includes using advanced capture and analysis capabilities to give businesses deeper insights into their physical operations, from manufacturing floors to distributed logistics networks.
Through these initiatives, HCLTech and SAP plan to work with joint customers on practical deployments that use embodied AI to streamline processes, reduce operational complexity and support more informed decision-making. The focus remains on areas such as manufacturing, supply chain and logistics, where technology-driven improvements can have a direct impact on productivity and operational resilience.
