Fujitsu's announcement on September 16, 2026 builds on its existing Uvance business model, which it now says will be evolved to accelerate AX. The company is positioning consulting and FDE support as the entry point, with FDE staff working alongside customers from problem identification through AI implementation and business results. Alongside this, Fujitsu will develop a new data and AI foundation that turns industry and company-specific knowledge into reusable knowledge assets, with a launch planned for March 2027.
In the platform domain, Fujitsu plans to combine its own AI intellectual property with frontier AI, and to support sovereign clouds that ensure data and operational sovereignty. The company also says it will systematize knowledge gained from developing and operating business systems into industry context that AI can use. Looking ahead, Fujitsu intends to move toward outcome-linked and usage-linked revenue models, which could mark a shift in how it charges for these services.
