Description

TotalEnergies, a global energy producer operating in nearly 120 countries, rolled out 30,000 Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses to employees and built autonomous AI agents on Microsoft Copilot Studio. MARGE (Machine Assisted Reliability and Graving Engine) automatically analyzes and classifies industrial maintenance intervention reports that were previously handled manually, improving the identification of fault causes by 25% to 45%. A second agent, BuyerCompanion, built with partner Witivio, streamlines procurement for transactions up to €50,000 by drafting specifications, identifying suppliers and relevant framework agreements, and generating personalized recommendations, with an estimated 10% savings on certain purchases; it is already operational in France and could ultimately support 15,000 staff worldwide.
