McCarthy Building Companies Inc., one of America's oldest privately held national construction companies, and Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR), a global leader in artificial intelligence and data platforms, today announced a multi-year, multi-million dollar strategic partnership to enhance AI and data-driven decision-making across McCarthy's operations.

McCarthy will leverage Palantir's Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) to create a connected AI operating system that brings McCarthy's more than 160 years of construction expertise directly into the workflows of its teams, from early design to field execution.

"We're incredibly excited about our partnership with Palantir and believe we've invested in the premier platform on the market," said Justin McFarland, Chief Digital Officer of McCarthy. "Beyond the ontology and technology itself, Palantir brings exceptional engineering talent and strategic thought leadership that has accelerated our ability to transform complex operational concepts into scalable solutions faster than we thought possible."

A central focus of the partnership is McCarthy's AI Operations Suite – Pulse, an AI-native system designed to support field teams with real-time insight, scenario planning, risk analysis and decision orchestration. Built on AIP, with McCarthy's deep construction expertise and workflows modeled in Palantir's Ontology, Pulse helps superintendents, project managers and field operators evaluate options, anticipate constraints and make faster decisions on active job sites.

"As a superintendent, this partnership allows me to focus on what matters most for our clients and project teams, rather than getting buried in emails, documents and data," said Dave Evans, McCarthy Senior Superintendent. "By cutting through the noise and identifying what is most critical, I can devote more attention to delivering exceptional results for our stakeholders."

The joint effort will support a range of use cases across McCarthy's diverse portfolio, extending beyond any single workflow to help build a unified construction operating system. Across field execution, estimating, contracts, bidding and buyout, QA/QC, logistics and equipment planning, McCarthy will use AIP to connect critical workflows through the same Ontology, so insights from one part of the business can compound value across the enterprise. McCarthy is also modeling its internal technology team around embedded engineers and building enterprise-grade software natively with its own internal applications team.
