Pega Signs Five-Year Strategic Collaboration Agreement with AWS to Reimagine Legacy Transformation

Pegasystems Inc. (NASDAQ: PEGA), the Enterprise Transformation Company™, today announced it has signed a five-year strategic collaboration agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS). The collaboration will empower clients to harness the power of Pega products with AWS advanced generative AI services. This includes leveraging Amazon Bedrock and AWS Transform with Pega Blueprint™ to accelerate legacy modernization projects, freeing enterprises from time-consuming and resource-draining technical debt and opening the door for agentic automation across enterprise workflows.

A recent Pega survey indicates technical debt continues to hold back organizations that increasingly struggle to deliver the digital-first experiences their customers expect. The survey, conducted with research firm Savanta, found that more than two-thirds (68%) of IT decision makers in global enterprises say outdated legacy systems and applications are preventing them from embracing innovative technologies like artificial intelligence and automation.

Under this new agreement, Pega and AWS will leverage AWS Transform, which uses agentic AI workflows to automate the full modernization lifecycle, and Pega Blueprint, a cloud-based application that leverages AI agents to accelerate the design and development of Pega-powered workflow applications. Together, this AI-based approach helps clients accelerate their journey to the cloud faster and more efficiently without disrupting critical business functions. This allows them to rethink and replace legacy systems and rapidly deploy the power of predictable AI, agents, and automation to more effectively engage customers, deliver service, and run their operations.

Pega will also integrate Amazon Bedrock, a fully managed service, as the primary generative AI foundation powering Pega Blueprint and Pega PlatformTM, an AI decisioning and workflow automation platform used for building enterprise software solutions. Now powered with Amazon Bedrock, clients can securely leverage generative AI large language models (LLMs) from companies including Anthropic, Amazon, Cohere, Meta, and more. With Amazon Bedrock enterprise-grade security controls and governance capabilities, Pega clients can confidently use the power of Amazon Bedrock across the entire app development lifecycle – from requirements analysis to initial workflow design to continual refinement.

The agreement affirms Pega’s commitment to selling in AWS Marketplace as the preferred transaction mechanism for Pega-as-a-Service, helping to further reduce the time between contract and innovation for clients, while also providing clients with access to financial benefits in AWS Marketplace. Furthermore, this collaboration enables Pega to offer comprehensive migration services and tools that guide on-premises clients through a seamless transition to Pega-as-a-Service.
