TCS Launches GenAI and Agentic AI-Powered TCS MasterCraft™ to Help Enterprises Swiftly Modernize Legacy Systems

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), (BSE: 532540, NSE: TCS), a leading global IT services, consulting, and business solutions organization, has released the latest version of TCS MasterCraft™ augmented with GenAI and Agentic AI. This solution automates the process of modernizing legacy applications, thereby significantly reducing the cost and time required for manual conversions. The GenAI and Agentic AI enhancement will allow organizations to mine business logic faster and more accurately. The automation driven by the latest version of TCS MasterCraft can save over 70% in costs and achieve results twice as fast as traditional interventions.

Enterprises that are on a digital transformation journey have a pressing need to overcome the challenge of large legacy applications and data, including growing technology debt, high maintenance costs, lack of subject matter experts and limited documentation. Most modernization solutions focus on legacy conversions and are expensive for delivering complex programs. In addition, converting an old application to a new technology could result in another outdated system and result in poor maintainability. A solution like TCS MasterCraft™ powered by GenAI and Agentic-AI reduces the risk of obsolescence and ensures sustainable success in the market.

One of North America's largest banks have used the GenAI-powered TCS MasterCraft to transform its mainframe applications. TCS delivered 2X productivity savings during modernization and 3X faster delivery than traditional approaches. A central knowledge repository was also created with 90% effort savings. TCS is also using the latest Gen AI and Agentic AI-powered TCS MasterCraft to migrate over 50 million lines of legacy COBOL code to Java, a modern language, for a global financial services major in the US. Projects like these help enterprises accelerate their modernization efforts, while creating a centralized, re-usable knowledge base of their applications.

Zachariah Chirayil, Practice Director, Everest Group, a market research firm, said, "As businesses undergo digital transformation, enterprises are reassessing their heritage environments, prioritizing integration with cloud platforms, and modernizing legacy applications. TCS' comprehensive AI and automation suite, TCS MasterCraft, supports enterprises in modernizing mainframe applications, facilitating monolithic application rearchitecting to microservices, and optimizing mainframe workloads. The company's extensive partnership network and deep understanding of business requirements around mainframes enable the delivery of hyperpersonalized, industry-specific solutions. TCS' location-agnostic operating model and organizational change management approach ensures smooth transitions during mainframe modernization, while clients appreciate its proficiency in both mainframe and cloud technologies."

Ashvini Saxena, VP and Head, TCS Components Engineering Group and Digital Software and Solutions said, "Enterprises have large applications in multiple technologies and architectures over decades. We've successfully delivered hundreds of complex modernization programs using intelligent automation-driven technology conversion for years. Solutions commercially available to the enterprises currently make it expensive to deliver such modernization programs. We have leveraged GenAI and Agentic AI capabilities for extraction of business knowledge and conversion to augment this capability to deliver maintainable applications and data with powerful design repository."

Since 2012, TCS MasterCraft has been helping customers transform their legacy systems into modern, scalable, and cloud-native applications, ensuring that they can continuously evolve and keep up with changing business needs. Over the last decade, the offering has adapted to new technological advances and incorporated disruptive tech to offer the best-in-class solutions to enterprises across industries. Now, a layer of artificial intelligence boosts this automation-driven modernization solution. The Agentic AI augmentation brings together the vast TCS knowledge base, best practices and purposive agents to solve challenges that are unique to different types of complex modernization programs.

This enhanced version will ensure that new systems are resilient to future upgrades and changes. The new version of TCS MasterCraft is part of TCS' broader focus on enabling AI-led solutions that can simplify and optimize complex business processes. Furthermore, TCS MasterCraft's intelligent automation allows humanin-the-loop decision-making throughout the process. An integrated DevSecOps pipeline ensures continuous delivery of end-to-end modernization. TCS is committed to adapting to the changes that are shaping the industry and artificial intelligence is already driving a significant number of business engagements. In Q4FY25 TCS had around 580 business engagements centered on AI. Further to that, TCS is prioritizing investment in Agentic AI and has developed over 150 specialized solutions tailored to sectors such as financial services, accounting, and supply chain management.
