Story
Inside Caterpillar, research and writing used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in industrials groups working out of the United States. Knowledge workers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Caterpillar uses Claude for Work from Anthropic as the working layer for internal knowledge work. Anthropic builds the Claude family of AI models used for analysis, coding, and workplace assistants with an emphasis on reliability. The practical change is simple: research and writing has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Caterpillar gets from Anthropic is a durable place to run research and writing and a way for knowledge workers to see the same internal knowledge work at the same time.
