Securely Connect Sterling to Your AI Platforms, Intelligent Workflows and Enterprise Automation Systems

The Sterling MCP Service enables organisations to securely connect Sterling with modern AI platforms, copilots and custom automation workflows. Using secure APIs, encrypted connections and OAuth authenticated access layers, businesses can expose approved Sterling data and functionality into AI driven environments without compromising governance, security or ownership of commercial information.

The service supports integrations with leading AI platforms including Microsoft Copilot, Anthropic Claude and OpenAI ChatGPT, alongside internal AI assistants, enterprise automation platforms and bespoke machine learning solutions. This allows organisations to create intelligent workflows around estimating, forecasting, resource analysis, reporting and project intelligence using their own controlled data environments.

Security and ownership remain central to the Sterling MCP Service. All connections are secured using encrypted communication and OAuth authentication workflows to ensure only approved users and services can access authorised information. Client data always remains client owned and is never accessed, reused or resold by Sterling, ensuring organisations maintain full control over permissions, governance and compliance requirements.
