Part of AI Refinery,™ the Trusted Agent Huddle will allow secure and seamless agent-to-agent interoperability across partners including Adobe, AWS, Databricks, Google Cloud, Meta, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Oracle, Salesforce, SAP, ServiceNow, Snowflake and Workday. Agents developed by enterprise users will be able to seamlessly work together in a single platform, allowing organizations to select and manage the right agents for specific tasks and business objectives.

Lan Guan, chief AI officer of Accenture, said, “With the proliferation of AI agents across the enterprise, trust is the only limit to AI reaching its full potential, and seamless and secure multi-system collaboration between agents will further the impact and promise of what agentic AI can achieve. With the launch of Trusted Agent Huddle, for the first time, companies will be able to connect and orchestrate agents from different enterprise platforms within AI Refinery, enabling boundaryless capability and unprecedented levels of innovation.”

With the use of Trusted Agent Huddle to publish and onboard agents into AI Refinery through open standardization protocols, such as Agent2Agent and Model Context Protocol, organizations can transform entire workflows, rather than isolated processes within single domains or systems. Additionally, the Trusted Agent Huddle will leverage a proprietary algorithm to evaluate and align agent performance. This certification process lays the foundation for future development of an agent trust score. Organizations with pre-existing agents based on cloud-hosted models would seamlessly integrate those agents into AI Refinery without impacting functionality, enabling future agents to be built on the platform. Accenture’s agent builder can be used to adapt agents as business requirements change.

FedEx is working with Accenture and NVIDIA to explore uses of Trusted Agent Huddle to drive greater resilience.

“FedEx is a trusted player at the center of the supply chain ecosystem. We work to make supply chains smarter for everyone, bringing people and businesses together to drive new efficiencies and growth," said Sriram Krishnasamy, chief transformation officer and chief digital & information officer, FedEx Corporation. "The Trusted Agent Huddle enables agents from different platforms to collaborate as one team and will help FedEx seamlessly engage and orchestrate information across the supply chain to accelerate innovation.”

“With the launch of Trusted Agent Huddle, we're helping enterprises like FedEx future proof their innovation and AI investments,” said Karthik Narain, group chief executive—Technology and chief technology officer, Accenture. “Collaboration is the competitive differentiation of the future. Companies can best address today's volatility, while positioning themselves for future innovation and resilience, if they are able to harness AI innovation from across the ecosystem and not be limited to a single agent ecosystem.”

Accenture AI Refinery—which is built on NVIDIA AI Enterprise—helps accelerate AI across the SaaS and cloud AI ecosystem. The new Trusted Agent Huddle can be used with the NVIDIA Agent Intelligence toolkit which provides seamless, heterogeneous connectivity between agents, tools and data.

“Collaboration and integration across platforms and systems is key to running AI agents that can reason and complete complex tasks,” said Justin Boitano, vice president of Enterprise AI Software Products at NVIDIA. “Accenture AI Refinery, built with NVIDIA, offers a Trusted Agent Huddle to let enterprises orchestrate interoperable agent teams to drive efficiency and innovation across virtually every business function.”
