LONDON, October 2, 2025 – NTT DATA, a global leader in digital business and technology services, today announced it has signed a Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to deliver AI-powered, industry specific contact center solutions built on Amazon Connect, the cloud-based contact center platform from AWS. This collaboration will help accelerate the adoption of AI-powered customer experience (CX) solutions worldwide.

As part of the agreement, NTT DATA will launch Managed Customer Experience (MCX) for Connect, a modular platform designed to accelerate CX transformation across industries. By combining NTT DATA’s 30+ years of industry and customer experience expertise with managed services capabilities, with the power of Amazon Connect’s comprehensive cloud-based platform, customers will benefit from faster time-to-value, more personalized interactions and data-driven customer engagement experiences.

As part of the collaboration, the two companies will work together to create and deliver modular, AI-powered contact center solutions globally. Leveraging advanced technologies including AI, machine learning and advanced analytics, these solutions will modernize CX operations and improve key metrics such as average handle times, first-call resolution and customer satisfaction.   

Key highlights include: 

  • AI-Powered CX Solutions: NTT DATA will integrate Amazon Connect's AI features into its MCX platform, enabling more personalized and efficient customer interactions. This includes accelerating the design and deployment of conversational AI agents leveraging real-time sentiment analysis, intelligent call routing and predictive service capabilities to deliver more intuitive, proactive engagement. 
  • Global Innovation & Expansion: Leveraging NTT DATA’s core CX intellectual property (IP) including real-time speech analytics, Smart AI Agent Ecosystem and industry vertical solutions, this collaboration will support the adoption of cloud-based contact center solutions across NTT DATA’s global enterprise client base. The initiative will focus on industries with complex customer lifecycles, including financial services, healthcare, telecommunications and retail.
