DXC Technology will work with Ferrovial, and Microsoft to jointly develop the generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform Quercus. Quercus, which uses platform engineering principles as its foundations, will help organizations around the world to integrate secure, responsible AI solutions throughout their business operations to automate processes for improved profitability and efficiency. DXC will standardize Quercus and offer it as an innovative AI solution for its global customers, tailoring the platform to meet individual customer needs.

This will reduce the time required to create bespoke AI solutions and empower organizations to be more agile in deploying and realizing the benefits of generative AI to gain a significant competitive advantage in their industries. Together, the three organizations will also accelerate and scale the adoption of generative AI as part of Ferrovial's transformation to improve its internal operations and market offerings. DXC will be responsible for evolving, maintaining, and commercializing Quercus, which will run on Microsoft's Azure and OpenAI technology.

Ferrovial has begun to implement an early version of the Quercus platform for its customers, creating an AI virtual assistant to support key business activities including human resources, health & safety, tenders, and cybersecurity intelligent agents. Quercus will be able to integrate with mission critical business systems and coordinate with other generative AI models to maximize its potential performance impact for customers.
