Artificial Intelligence is critical to organisations, but many unprepared – Workplace Insight

The State of Intelligent Enterprises report sets out to examine the current landscape and shows the challenges and the driving factors for businesses to become truly Intelligent Enterprises. Wipro surveyed 300 respondents in UK and US across key industry sectors like financial services, healthcare, technology, manufacturing, retail and consumer goods. The report claims to highlight that while collecting data is critical, the ability to combine this with a host of technologies to leverage insights creates an Intelligent Enterprise. Organisations that fast-track adoption of intelligent processes and technologies stand to gain an immediate competitive advantage over their counterparts.

Some of the key findings from the report are:

Organisations now need new capabilities to navigate the current challenges.

While 80 percent of organisations recognise the importance of being intelligent, only 17 percent would classify their organisations as an Intelligent Enterprise. 98 percent of those surveyed believe that being an Intelligent Enterprise yields benefits to organisations. The most important ones being improved customer experience, faster business decisions and increased organisational agility. 91 percent of organisations feel there are data barriers towards being an Intelligent Enterprise, with security, quality and seamless integration being of utmost concern. 95 percent of business leaders surveyed see Artificial Intelligence as critical to being Intelligent Enterprises, yet, currently, only 17 percent can leverage AI across the entire organisation. 74 percent of organisations consider investment in technology as the most likely enabler for an Intelligent Enterprise, however 42 percent of them think that this must be complemented with efforts to re-skill workforce.
