Infosys bags AI-led IT transformation mandate from Valmet

Indian IT services firm Infosys on Tuesday has secured a long-term strategic IT transformation engagement with Finnish industrial technology company Valmet, as enterprises increasingly invest in AI-led modernisation of core technology operations to improve efficiency, resilience and business agility.

Under the agreement, Infosys will modernise Valmet's core IT services and deliver an end-to-end IT transformation programme aimed at aligning the company's technology operations more closely with its business objectives.

The engagement will see Infosys leverage its AI-powered Infosys Topaz platform and cloud suite Infosys Cobalt to transform Valmet's enterprise IT landscape, improve operational efficiency and establish a future-ready digital foundation.

As part of the programme, Infosys will deploy Infosys Topaz Fabric, its agentic AI services suite, to embed artificial intelligence across IT operations. The company said the platform will support a human-in-the-loop model designed to improve governance, transparency and accuracy while enabling faster issue resolution, productivity gains and proactive IT management.

Infosys will also use Infosys Cobalt to modernise Valmet's cloud environment and create scalable and secure cloud foundations that support long-term digital transformation initiatives.

The collaboration is intended to support Valmet's "Lead the Way" strategy, which focuses on strengthening operational efficiency, governance and business resilience through technology modernisation.

"At Valmet, our target is to build a resilient, future-ready digital foundation that supports the execution of our Lead the Way strategy," said Arto Huuskonen, Vice President, IT Transformation, Valmet. "Infosys brings strong capabilities across AI, cloud and managed services, supported by a structured and responsible approach to AI adoption."

Jasmeet Singh, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Manufacturing at Infosys, said enterprises are increasingly adopting AI-first operating models to drive large-scale business transformation.

"Our collaboration with Valmet exemplifies Infosys' commitment to driving transformative outcomes by leveraging the power of Infosys Topaz and Infosys Cobalt. Together, we aim to accelerate innovation, enhance operational agility and create sustained, scalable impact," Singh said.

Valmet is a global supplier of technologies, automation and services for process industries, with operations in around 40 countries. The company reported net sales of approximately €5.2 billion in 2025 and employs around 18,500 people globally.

The deal highlights growing demand among manufacturing and industrial enterprises for AI-enabled IT transformation programmes as organisations seek to modernise legacy systems, optimise costs and improve operational resilience amid accelerating digitalisation initiatives.
