The partnership brings Factory’s Droid pla(cid:414)orm into Hexaware’s global delivery ecosystem, helping engineering teams build, test, modernize, and manage so(cid:332)ware inside the workflows they already use. Hexaware has also deployed Droids internally as “Customer Zero,” using the pla(cid:414)orm in its own engineering environment before taking it to clients. Moving Agents into Everyday Engineering Work As enterprises look to accelerate so(cid:332)ware delivery and moderniza(cid:415)on efforts, agent-na(cid:415)ve development is emerging as a new model for scaling engineering work. Through this partnership, Hexaware will train and enable its delivery teams to deploy and manage Factory Droids in client environments. The enablement work will cover:  Droid integra(cid:415)on with SDLC toolchains, including GitHub, Jira, Azure DevOps, and enterprise CI/CD pipelines  Domain-specific agent configura(cid:415)on for regulated industries  Compliance-aware code genera(cid:415)on and audit-ready documenta(cid:415)on  Measurement of engineering velocity, quality improvement, and cost efficiency  Joint Factory and Hexaware squads to support early deployments and scale-up Early Focus Across Key Industries Ini(cid:415)al engagements are focused on areas where engineering complexity and governance requirements are highest. For instance, in professional services, Hexaware is applying Droids to legacy moderniza(cid:415)on, technical debt reduc(cid:415)on, and large-scale refactoring ini(cid:415)a(cid:415)ves. In banking and financial services, the focus is on applica(cid:415)on moderniza(cid:415)on within regulated environments. “We’ve seen drama(cid:415)c gains in adop(cid:415)on over the last three months. We priori(cid:415)zed training our senior developers, architects, and pod leaders on Factory, and they became evangelists and champions across the organiza(cid:415)on,” said David Corrado, SVP – Strategic Global Clients, Hexaware. “We’re seeing 5x to 10x gains in produc(cid:415)on-ready output while inves(cid:415)ng the necessary (cid:415)me in guardrails and governance so these agents can operate with efficiency and safety.” From Internal Use to Client Scale Across internal codebases, Hexaware has used Factory’s Droids for large-scale refactoring, documenta(cid:415)on, code migra(cid:415)ons, and repository consistency. That experience now informs how Hexaware plans to support clients in adop(cid:415)ng agent-na(cid:415)ve development, with the right controls in place. “AI is changing so(cid:332)ware delivery from a support func(cid:415)on into an execu(cid:415)on layer within engineering,” said Kush Gupta, Global Head – Professional Services, Hexaware. “With Factory, we’re helping clients apply so(cid:332)ware agents to complex delivery work in a controlled way, with speed, consistency, documenta(cid:415)on, and governance built into the process.” “Hexaware proved this on its own engineering before bringing it to clients. That credibility, with their reach across regulated industries, is the kind of partner we want carrying agent-na(cid:415)ve development into the enterprise,” said Matan Grinberg, Co-founder & CEO, Factory. Factory and Hexaware will bring the capability to market through co-developed offerings and delivery team enablement.
