CGI Inc. and Schneider Electric announced a broadened partnership on February 19 2026 that will deliver end‑to‑end, AI‑driven solutions for energy suppliers across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The deal positions CGI as a managed‑services partner that will implement and integrate Schneider Electric’s Advanced Distribution Management Systems (ADMS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) platforms, enabling utilities to optimize network performance, cut operating costs, and accelerate the transition to renewable energy.
The expansion dovetails with CGI’s long‑term AI‑enabled managed‑services strategy, which the company has underpinned with a $1 billion investment over three years. By combining CGI’s industry expertise and systems‑integration capabilities with Schneider Electric’s proven grid‑operations technology, the partnership creates a comprehensive platform that enhances operational efficiency and supports regulatory compliance in the DACH region. The AI component is expected to drive predictive analytics, automated fault detection, and real‑time decision support for grid operators.
CGI’s new role will allow it to serve a broader portfolio of energy suppliers, from large utilities to regional distributors, by providing a single, integrated solution that spans asset management, network planning, and real‑time operations. The partnership is projected to generate new revenue streams that align with CGI’s focus on high‑margin managed services and AI‑enabled offerings, reinforcing the company’s growth trajectory in the European energy market.
CGI’s Q1 fiscal 2026 results, released on January 28 2026, showed revenue of $4.08 billion—up 7.7% year‑over‑year—and adjusted diluted EPS of $2.12, up 7.6% year‑over‑year. The strong performance was driven by client investment in modernization, managed services, and advanced AI solutions. The partnership with Schneider Electric is positioned to build on this momentum by expanding CGI’s presence in a high‑growth market and adding a new, AI‑powered service line that complements its existing portfolio.
Stefan Becker, President of CGI’s Germany operations, said the collaboration “combines technological excellence with deep industry knowledge to help energy companies navigate the dynamic changes that come with strict regulations.” Caroline Pim, Vice‑President of Power Systems DACH Region at Schneider Electric, added that the partnership “will enable us to translate our solutions even more effectively into measurable client value.” François Boulanger, CGI’s President and CEO, noted that the expansion “continues to reflect the strength of our business model, client relationships, and operational discipline, and it reinforces our commitment to delivering AI‑enabled managed services.”
