IBM has announced the launch of IBM Enterprise Advantage, an AI-powered consulting tool to help enterprises build, govern, and operate their own internal AI platform at scale.
The company explained how it developed Enterprise Advantage by pairing the knowledge of its own consultants with technology built from its internal AI-powered delivery platform, IBM Consulting Advantage.
“Many organisations are investing in AI, but achieving real value at scale remains a major challenge,” said IBM Consulting Head Mohamad Ali.
“We have solved many of these challenges inside IBM by using AI to transform our own operations and deliver measurable results, giving us a proven playbook to help clients succeed.
โEnterprise Advantage brings this framework to clients by combining human expertise with digital workers and ready-to-use AI assets so they can scale AI with confidence and achieve meaningful impact.”
According to IBM, Enterprise Advantage can redesign workflows, connect AI to existing systems, and scale new agentic applications without requiring changes to their cloud providers, AI models, or core infrastructure, including Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, IBM watsonx, and both openโand closedโsource models.
Impact of AI on enterprise revenue
The launch comes off the back of an IBM study showing that nearly 80% of surveyed executives expect AI will significant contribute to their revenue by 2030.
The global study, which surveyed more than 2,000 senior executives across 33 geographies and 20 industries, also showed that respondents predict that AI investment will surge approximately 150% between now and 2030. For 62% of those surveyed, they expect AI spend will be dedicated to innovation by 2030.
Meanwhile, while 57% say their competitive advantage will come from AI model sophistication, only 28% have a clear view of what AI models they’ll need by 2030. In fact, 68% of executives surveyed worry their AI efforts will fail due to lack of integration with core business activities.
“AI won’t just support businesses, it will define them,” Ali said. “By 2030, the companies that win will weave AI into every decision and operation. They will own powerful AI assets, move faster than competitors, bring innovations to market quickly, and deliver real, measurable business results using technology and automation.”
