services.<\/p>\n<p>Tech Mahindra\u2019s capabilities in digital transformation, cloud-native design, data engineering and AI-led modernisation are expected to underpin customer projects as they move to new decisioning architectures.<\/p>\n<p>The company plans to use its global delivery network, sector-specific frameworks and pre-built accelerators to integrate FICO technology into complex banking environments.<\/p>\n<p>The partners said that this move would \u201csignificantly\u201d cut both implementation risk and time-to-value.<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration is also aimed at reshaping core banking set-ups by consolidating multiple, disparate decisioning tools into a single AI-based decisioning layer.<\/p>\n<p>This unified approach is expected to support more consistent and automated decisions across financial institutions\u2019 operations.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the tie-up, Tech Mahindra will roll out structured training and enablement initiatives to build consulting skills around FICO\u2019s AI decisioning offerings.<\/p>\n<p>These programmes are intended to help enterprises shift AI projects from pilot stages into production, focusing on practical deployment rather than experimentation.<\/p>\n<p>According to the companies, the CoE will combine certified specialists, reusable solution components and sector-oriented offerings, with the aim of reducing adoption risk and improving returns on investment for customers.<\/p>\n<p>Although the partnership\u2019s initial emphasis is on the BFSI segment, Tech Mahindra and FICO plan to extend the CoE\u2019s remit over time.<\/p>\n<p>The two firms intend to co-develop solutions for other industries, using the FICO Platform as the underlying technology for sector-specific decisioning applications.<\/p>\n<p>FICO&nbsp;vice president for Global Partners &amp; Alliances Alexandre Graff said: \u201cBy leveraging Tech Mahindra\u2019s FICO-trained experts, proprietary accelerators, and ready-to-deploy integrations, businesses can significantly reduce implementation risk and fast-track their digital transformation journeys.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tech Mahindra&nbsp;president and head \u2013 Europe Business&nbsp;Harshul Asnani added: \u201cEnterprises are struggling to derive meaningful returns from their digital transformation investments. This challenge is amplified by a global shortage of data scientists and system architects, resulting in delayed implementations and fragmented decision-making. The partnership addresses this gap, bringing together FICO\u2019s proven analytics platform with Tech Mahindra\u2019s deep implementation expertise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <!-- Newsletter banner start --> &lt;!&#8211;
