The new, multi-year agreement brings Google’s cloud and
artificial intelligence capabilities together with Accenture’s life
sciences services and platforms and is intended to help life
sciences organizations make their data more accessible, secure and
valuable.
The INTIENT platform provides life sciences organizations with
end-to-end capabilities from discovery and research to clinical
development and the delivery of treatments. Accenture launched
INTIENT in May 2019, building on more than seven years of
collaboration with over 25 life sciences companies to develop and
deploy platform technology solutions.
“INTIENT will advance Accenture’s and Google Cloud’s shared
mission to empower life sciences organizations with intelligent
solutions that help bring innovative treatments to patients around
the world, with greater speed, safety, and efficacy,” said Simon
Eaves, group chief executive of Products at Accenture. “Together,
we can deliver exceptional value to clients at a rapid pace.”
Google Cloud’s architecture supports open source technology that
will enable Accenture to expand the capabilities of INTIENT by
allowing partners, independent software vendors, and content
providers to rapidly develop and provide additional solutions that
extend the value of the platform.
Tariq Shaukat, president at Google Cloud, said, “We’re excited
to partner with Accenture to transform the life sciences industry
with cloud technologies. Our shared goal is to accelerate
developments in treatments by leveraging powerful Google Cloud
capabilities, such as AI and data analytics, to gain insights that
correlate symptoms, events, and treatments in new and unexpected
ways.”
Under the terms of the agreement, Google Cloud will be the cloud
technology provider for current and future solutions that are a
part of the Accenture INTIENT platform for life sciences. The
agreement is an extension of the partnership between Accenture and
Google built over the last eight years. A key milestone in the
relationship was the July 2018 launch of the Accenture Google Cloud
Business Group, which helps companies use Google Cloud technology
to deliver superior customer experiences and accelerate their
digital transformation journeys.
