Insights
AI pilots often fail to move into production because they are not tied to the right business problems, lack governance structures that give leaders confidence to scale or fail to prove value in board-level terms. To move beyond experimentation, technology leaders need to map AI opportunities to measurable outcomes, build governance into the programme from the start and create a commercially credible case for production.
AI initiatives often stall at pilot stage because organisations try to scale before the foundations are ready. In part one of this two-part series, we explore three common barriers: Data that is not AI-ready Limited internal AI expertise Integration debt that prevents AI from connecting with the wider business. The takeaway for technology leaders is that moving from pilot to production requires sustained investment in data, capability and connected technology foundations.
Why logistics leaders don't need more technology. They need the right technology. Logistics has never been short of pressure to innovate. Rising customer expectations, tighter margins, supply chain disruption and increasingly complex operations have made technology essential to staying competitive.
For years, enterprise technology strategy followed a familiar pattern: buy proven platforms, configure where necessary, and avoid the perceived risk of building from scratch. That model is being quietly but decisively rewritten, and with leaders under more and more pressure to grow revenues, differentiation through custom software and AI, is critical. NashTech’s global study of 1,000 technology decision-makers shows just how AI is accelerating changes in technology strategy, with 85% see AI as an immediate priority in custom software development. Even more telling, 97% believe AI has made custom software more accessible than ever before. The barriers to building have fallen, but the strategic stakes have risen.
