| Advocate health workforce in scope | 167,000 |
What is it?
PwC and Anthropic expanded a strategic alliance first struck in 2024. PwC will deploy Claude across its own people and client engagements, with a new joint Center of Excellence and a standalone business group built on Claude for regulated industries like banking, insurance, and healthcare.
How does it work?
PwC will train and certify 30,000 of its US professionals on Claude, then expand toward its global workforce. Claude Code and Cowork — Anthropic's coding agent and productivity surface — get rolled out across PwC's deal teams, finance, supply chain, HR, and engineering functions. The Office of the CFO business group bundles those tools with PwC domain knowledge for end-to-end finance work.
Why does it matter?
Big Four consulting firms set the procurement template for the Fortune 500. PwC committing this much of its delivery model to Claude is a meaningful enterprise win for Anthropic, and the cited numbers — 10-week underwriting cycles dropping to 10 days, hours-long security work compressing to minutes — give other CIOs a benchmark to point at.
