Capgemini has deepened its strategic alliances with SAP and Mistral AI to roll out secure, tailored generative AI (GenAI) capabilities for industries that demand the highest levels of data governance. This collaboration is poised to change the way public sector organisations, financial institutions, aerospace companies, and energy providers adopt AI, without compromising compliance.


Unlocking Generative AI for Regulated Enterprises

Across the globe, organisations are exploring how AI can optimise operations, reduce costs, and unlock new sources of value. However, entities operating under strict regulatory oversight often find it difficult to implement these innovations due to concerns about data security, traceability, and governance.

To address this gap, Capgemini, Mistral AI, and SAP have launched a collaboration designed specifically to allow regulated organisations to confidently deploy AI solutions inside a trusted digital environment—SAP’s Business Technology Platform (BTP).

The partnership leverages Mistral AI’s multilingual, highly-customisable GenAI models, SAP BTP’s secure and scalable infrastructure, and Capgemini’s real-world implementation experience. Together, these capabilities promise to bring responsible AI innovation to some of the most demanding and data-sensitive sectors in the world.


Key Industries Benefiting from the Collaboration

The collaboration is tailored for sectors where data sovereignty, compliance, and risk mitigation are mission-critical. These include:

  • Financial Services: Secure AI tools to automate compliance checks, fraud detection, and financial reporting.
  • Public Sector: AI solutions to improve citizen services while protecting sensitive personal data.
  • Aerospace & Defence: Smart workflows to support logistics, maintenance, and manufacturing with real-time insights.
  • Energy & Utilities: Predictive maintenance powered by AI-driven drone inspections and fault detection.

Each use case is developed with ethics and governance embedded, ensuring compliance with relevant regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, or defence standards.


Practical AI Use Cases Powered by Mistral and SAP

Capgemini’s contribution to the partnership includes an extensive library of over 50 AI use cases, covering common challenges across different industries. These pre-built solutions are easy to customise and integrate into existing systems.

Highlighted examples include:

  • Augmented Field Operations (Aerospace): Smart assistants help technicians resolve operational non-conformities faster by offering AI-generated suggestions.
  • Drone-Based Predictive Maintenance (Utilities): AI interprets drone footage to predict potential faults, enabling proactive intervention before issues escalate.
  • Smart Procurement (Cross-sector): An AI assistant helps procurement teams make smarter choices by comparing supplier offers and identifying optimal purchasing paths.

These use cases demonstrate how AI can go beyond automation and become a true business enabler.


The Value Proposition: Security, Speed, and Sustainability

One of the unique differentiators in this initiative is its focus on secure deployment of generative AI. Many GenAI models operate in the cloud or external environments, raising concerns about control over data. By integrating with SAP’s self-hosted BTP, organisations can deploy private AI models that never expose sensitive data to external servers.

At the same time, Capgemini and Mistral AI are working on low-carbon AI models—ensuring that this transformation is not only intelligent but also sustainable. Energy-efficient computing and minimal resource consumption are prioritised in the deployment of each use case.


Capgemini’s Experience in AI-Driven Transformation

Capgemini is no stranger to the demands of enterprise AI. Its dedicated Global SAP Centre of Excellence supports co-innovation across industries. A case in point is the work with Brose, a leading automotive supplier, to develop SupplierGPT—an AI-powered assistant embedded within SAP BTP. This digital assistant has helped Brose:

  • Streamline supplier onboarding
  • Improve internal collaboration
  • Standardise processes across global teams

The project moved from concept to production in just a few weeks, highlighting the speed at which AI can bring value when deployed through the right channels.


Industry Validation and Awards

Capgemini’s innovation in business AI has not gone unnoticed. In 2025, the company won the SAP Pinnacle Award for Business AI Innovation, particularly for its success in customer AI use cases. This award reflects Capgemini’s leadership in deploying AI that delivers measurable business outcomes.

This recognition is a testament to the company’s commitment to driving AI-powered transformation while maintaining a focus on customer value, security, and sustainability.
