VERNON HILLS, Ill. – April 22, 2026 – CDW (Nasdaq: CDW) announced today it has achieved the Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise Competency, marking a milestone in the company’s ability to deliver production-ready AI solutions. Timed with the start of Google Cloud Next 2026, the announcement reflects CDW’s shift from AI experimentation to deploying AI agents that automate complex work, reduce manual effort, and improve decision making.

As organizations move beyond basic AI chat interfaces, CDW is introducing specialized engineering teams designed to build, deploy and operate custom AI agents. Enabled by Gemini Enterprise, these agents connect fragmented enterprise data across email, documents, collaboration tools, and customer systems, helping organizations to transform their business operations while maintaining enterprise-grade security and governance.

“Achieving the Gemini Enterprise Competency reinforces CDW’s role as a trusted partner helping organizations operationalize AI at scale,” said Mukesh Kumar, chief solutions and services officer, CDW. “We’re helping customers connect AI to their data, workflows, and systems in a secure, governed way that delivers measurable ROI.”

The competency reinforces CDW’s role as a Google AI transformation partner, spanning Google Workspace with Gemini for Education to enterprise-grade AI solutions that meet organizations at different stages of adoption.

CDW’s expanded AI offerings are designed to help customers move faster from proof-of-concept to production and include:

• Agentic Strategy and Governance – Establishing the security, data access and governance foundations required for autonomous AI agents to operate responsibly across enterprise platforms.
• Vertical-Specific AI Agents – Custom-built agents for healthcare, education and the public sector, tailored to specialized workflows such as research, policy analysis, and administrative automation.
• Managed Agent Operations – Ongoing monitoring, optimization and lifecycle management of AI agents to ensure performance, accuracy and safety over time.

By pairing Gemini Enterprise with CDW’s deep services expertise, customers can reduce integration complexity, accelerate time to value, and scale AI-driven automation in alignment with their business and regulatory requirements.

At Google Cloud Next 2026, CDW will demonstrate Gemini Enterprise–powered AI agents at Booth #2623. The company will also showcase a new AI agent at Kiosk #7809, designed to help public sector agencies improve document assessment efficiency while maintaining strict compliance with federal regulations.
