Harnessing AI In Aerospace, Defence: TCS Opens New Delivery Centre In Toulouse, France
The TCS new facility will help leverage technologies like AI, generative AI, machine learning, and data analytics in aerospace, manufacturing, and defence.
Tata Consultancy Services has inaugurated a new delivery centre in Toulouse, France. In the new facility, TCS will harness next-generation technologies like artificial intelligence, generative AI, machine learning, and data analytics to help customers in aerospace and related industries such as manufacturing and defence.
The delivery centre will facilitate AI-driven transformation and foster innovation to improve aircraft design, manufacturing, and maintenance processes for European clients. This includes enhancing fuel efficiency, developing advanced materials for lighter aircraft structures, and implementing predictive maintenance to minimise downtime, improve safety, and enhance passenger experience.
“By harnessing the power of AI and our deep domain expertise, we aim to achieve new heights of efficiency, sustainability, and innovation. Together, we are not just shaping the future of aircraft production but enabling future-ready skies,” said Anupam Singhal, president-manufacturing, TCS.
This is TCS’ fourth delivery centre in France after Lille, Poitiers, and Paris-Suresnes. TCS has been present in France for the past 30 years, working with some of the largest European businesses. It supports CAC 40 companies and large enterprises in their digital journeys. It has ramped up investments in the country and plans to double its workforce in the region. Recently, the company launched its innovation hub TCS Pace Port in Paris.
By adopting a ‘glocal’ approach—combining local engagement with global capabilities—TCS aims to replicate the success of its existing delivery hubs in Lille, Poitiers, and the Paris region.
This center combines local expertise and international knowledge to provide high-quality consulting and project execution services to the aerospace industry. The new center is expected to drive significant growth for the company in the French market. “Our ‘glocal’ model, combining proximity with key industrial players and cutting-edge international expertise, is a real asset," said Rammohan Gourneni, country head for France, TCS.
"This new centre of excellence, a real catalyst for growth for our long-term strategy in France, brings together the best local talent and mobilises the entire international know-how of our group to offer sharp advice and flawless project execution to aerospace players,” he added.
According to TCS, the delivery centre will help accelerate recruitment in the region, leveraging the local talent pool, academic partnerships, and TCS’ existing capabilities in France.
