The project
A full product team to acculturate to AI
JEMS has been managing and developing Pathé's digital platform for over 15 years: website, mobile app, online ticketing, data platform – all hosted on AWS. Today, 3 out of 4 tickets sold by Pathé go through this platform.
The challenge was clear: to roll out Claude across the entire team – not just for developers, but for all profiles – in order to increase speed, quality and consistency without creating technical debt.
The rollout project was led by Nicolas Guichard, JEMS Delivery Lead, working directly with Jean-Christophe Désire, Pathé CIO.
Rollout & Activation
Claude Code CLI via AWS Bedrock for the whole team, then Claude.ai and Claude Desktop on the Team plan.
Plugins & Integrations
Project standards and conventions formalised into rules and skills, packaged as plugins on a dedicated Pathé GitLab.
Programme CoE
Long-term adoption support to embed good practices into team habits.
Training sessions
Enablement of all profiles — PMs, developers, QA, DevOps and architects.

"We have integrated Claude into our entire software production chain, from specification to deployment.
It is no longer an experimental tool:it is an operational performance driver embedded in our team practices"
Results: A measurable impact across the entire product chain
-65%
Unit test generation time
With Claude Code, developers generate their unit tests 65% faster – freeing up time for business logic and functional review.
-7%
Bugs raised in QA
Claude detects anomalies earlier in the development lifecycle, reducing the rate of bugs reaching the QA phase.
Review cycles before merge
The number of code review cycles before merge has been divided by 3 thanks to the superior quality of the code produced with Claude.
Adoption in 3 weeks
The entire team—PMs, developers, QA, DevOps and architects—was actively using Claude by the third week of rollout.
Accelerated time-to-production
Projects integrating Claude into the development cycle are put into production an average of 4 weeks earlier – a direct gain in Pathé's ability to deliver value to its users more quickly.
