CMC Corporation recently announced a restructuring program for its Technology & Solution Division, consolidating the consulting capabilities of CMC Consulting into CMC Technology & Solution Corporation (CMC TS).

Along with the organizational restructuring, CMC appointed Nguyen Hai Son as Acting Chief Executive Officer of CMC TS.

The move marks a major step in CMC’s 2026-2030 strategy, as the Group positions AI-X - comprehensive AI transformation - as its core development axis.

The restructuring of CMC TS is viewed as a preparation phase in organization, capability and operating model, enabling CMC to work more closely with customers and partners in digital transformation, AI transformation and technology infrastructure modernization.

CMC TS completes end-to-end partnership model for enterprises

Following the restructuring, CMC TS continues to position itself as the core of the Technology and Solutions Business Division, taking on the role of connecting consulting, implementation, system integration, AI product development and cybersecurity capabilities.

The consolidation of consulting capabilities from CMC Consulting enables CMC TS to build a closed-loop capability chain, covering digital transformation strategy and ERP consulting; technology infrastructure and digital platform design and implementation; as well as security, operations and system optimization.

With this model, CMC TS aims to become an end-to-end technology partner for enterprises - from identifying business problems and designing transformation roadmaps to implementation and performance measurement.

According to CMC, market demand is changing rapidly. 

Enterprises no longer simply seek software procurement, infrastructure leasing or standalone technology projects.

As AI becomes a new competitive capability, customers increasingly require partners capable of understanding business challenges, designing suitable technology architecture, deploying at scale and securing systems in a synchronized manner.

CMC TS will focus on key customer segments including government agencies, large enterprises, banking and finance, manufacturing, retail, telecommunications and industries with high demand for AI transformation.

Following the merger, CMC TS increased its charter capital to VND350 billion ($13.5 million), while continuing to expand its capacity to serve more than 20,000 enterprises nationwide.

Speaking at the restructuring announcement and leadership appointment ceremony, CMC Group’s Chairman Nguyen Trung Chinh emphasized the strategic role of CMC TS within the Group’s ecosystem.

“CMC’s goal is to become a global digital corporation and an AI technology corporation. Within the CMC ecosystem, CMC TS plays a critical role in leading and creating AI transformation value for enterprises in the market. I will personally take responsibility before the Group’s 6,000 employees, together with the entire CMC TS team, to place Vietnam’s technology consulting model on the global map. For me, a leader must be committed and must set an example. We will resolutely follow the path we have chosen to achieve the goals we have set,” he said.

New Acting CEO and CMC TS’s second transformation challenge

Nguyen Hai Son was appointed Acting CEO of CMC TS as the company enters a new transformation cycle, with the ambition of becoming an end-to-end partner for enterprise digital and AI transformation.

Son has more than 25 years of experience in information technology, having held leadership positions in software development, project management, transformation portfolio management and technology consulting at organizations including EVN, Harvey Nash, Techcombank and Oracle Vietnam.

The appointment reflects CMC’s growing emphasis on consulting capabilities and leading customers from the early stages of AI transformation.

It also highlights a key difference in CMC TS’s new operating model: not only implementing technology after customer requirements are defined, but participating from the beginning in strategy definition, roadmap design and transformation execution.

“CMC TS’s second transformation brings new and broader opportunities for the company, but also comes with significant responsibility and many challenges. The leadership team and all employees of CMC TS will remain determined and united in realizing the strategies needed to achieve both short-term and long-term goals,” Son said

Under the new direction, CMC TS will not only serve as a technology solutions provider, but also become the focal point for bringing CMC’s AI-X capabilities into customers’ real-world business challenges.

The focus will be on programs that help enterprises improve operational efficiency, strengthen governance capabilities, leverage data, automate processes and build AI-based competitive advantages.

AI-X becomes CMC’s strategic axis for 2026-2030

The restructuring of CMC TS comes as CMC announces its second transformation strategy for 2026-2030, with AI-X positioned as the Group’s core growth driver.

In CMC’s approach, AI-X goes beyond applying AI to isolated processes. Instead, it involves integrating AI across infrastructure, data, platforms, products, operations, governance and customer experience.

From 2026 to 2028, CMC plans to focus on building foundational capabilities, completing C-OpenAI and launching flagship products.

The 2028-2030 period will focus on scaling operations, expanding market share and strengthening its domestic presence.

Beyond 2030, the Group aims to bring selected AI products, platforms and service models to international markets.

CMC’s 2026-2030 strategy is organized around five major business units: Digital Infrastructure; Technology & Solutions; New Technology & Strategic Technology; Global Business; and Education & Talent Development.

Digital Infrastructure Business Division: The unit will continue developing data center, cloud, connectivity and managed services capabilities, creating the foundation for AI use cases requiring high levels of data processing, computing power and operational security.

Technology & Solution Business Division: With CMC TS at its core, the unit will focus on bringing technology into enterprise operations through consulting, system integration, digital products, infrastructure and cybersecurity services.

New Technology & Strategic Technology Business Division: The division will concentrate on developing core capabilities including AI, computer vision, agentic AI, blockchain, IoT security and next-generation technology platforms.

This segment is expected to create long-term competitive advantages for CMC.

Global Business Division: The unit will continue expanding international markets, developing AI-X, digital transformation, data analytics, cloud, automation and technology services for customers in Japan, South Korea, the United States, Europe and the APAC region.

Education & Talent Development Business Division: Centered around CMC University, the unit will focus on developing high-quality technology talent, particularly in AI, data, cybersecurity and digital governance.

Under its 2030 vision, CMC aims to become a global digital corporation leading AI transformation, with AI, cloud and cybersecurity positioned as strategic technologies built on an open platform.

The Group also aims to increase the share of revenue generated from AI and core technology products, while developing products capable of scaling across regional and international markets.
