Mission Achieves AWS Agentic AI Specialization
In a notable accomplishment within the domain of artificial intelligence, Mission, a CDW company, has announced its achievement of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Agentic AI Specialization. This recognition, which was made public on December 1, 2025, underscores Mission’s capabilities as a partner in delivering autonomous AI systems designed to enhance business functionalities across various sectors.
Understanding the AWS Agentic AI Specialization
The AWS Agentic AI Specialization is a newly introduced category within the AWS AI Competency framework, awarded to partners who demonstrate exceptional technical expertise and realized customer success in implementing production-ready autonomous AI systems. These systems are not only capable of reasoning and planning but also operate independently, allowing businesses to streamline complex processes effectively.
Ted Stuart, President and COO of Mission, emphasized the importance of this recognition, stating, “Achieving the AWS Agentic AI Specialization reflects our commitment to advancing autonomous AI systems that deliver measurable business outcomes.” He also noted that this achievement validates Mission’s focus on helping organizations transition beyond proof-of-concept projects to fully deploying AI solutions that generate genuine returns on investment (ROI). Through implementations like Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and other leading AWS-compatible frameworks, Mission aids companies by making substantial moves away from mere experimentation to tangible results.
Success Stories with AWS Collaboration
One of the notable testimonials comes from Jon Goldman, CTO at Playbill, who praised the expertise of Mission’s team during their collaboration. Mission guided Playbill through the intricate architecture and deployment of a state-of-the-art research assistant that leverages Amazon Bedrock Agents along with advanced text-to-SQL capabilities. Initially intended as a limited trial for their editorial department, the initiative has revealed the potential of autonomous AI systems to dramatically alter internal workflows.
Goldman highlighted Mission’s efforts in implementing robust guardrails and source citations, which instill confidence in their editorial team. This focus on ensuring data-grounded reasoning, along with a mastery of agentic design within the broader AWS ecosystem, has allowed them to move swiftly from concept to a fully functional proof of concept. With aspirations to expand further, Playbill looks forward to evolving this tool from a departmental resource to a production-ready application aimed at enhancing user engagement by providing clear, factual answers to theater enthusiasts.
