The rapid changes the world is facing could mean that many organisations will not be ready for the Artificial Intelligence (AI) revolution. This is worrying especially when considering that ICT is both a national and European priority. It is estimated that in the coming years, the European Union will face a shortage of around 900,000 ICT professionals.

Within this context, CI Consulta, the advisory unit of Corporate ID Group, has teamed up with Alexiei Dingli to set up its AI Enabling Unit and launched a new service aimed at enabling companies achieve an effective and robust AI transformation process.

Jesmond Saliba, executive chairman of Corporate ID Group explained that CI Consulta, which forms part of the company’s Insights Institute, believes in meaningful synergies to deliver best of breed services and advice in the areas which it operates.

“With our partnership with Prof. Dingli the company will perform an AI readiness audit, develop an AI strategy, help companies build AI capacity while supporting them in developing an AI communication strategy,” Saliba said.

Dingli said that for an organisation to transform into an AI company, it needs to sufficiently understand AI and appreciate what it can do for the organization. By doing so, potential areas of improvement can be identified and valuable AI projects can be implemented. These can either be outsourced or else delivered through in-house talent. But in the end, it is very important to recognise the direct value added which it contributes to the business.

“The company’s strategic direction too needs to be aligned. It may sound daunting but with the right people, such a challenging task will become feasible. The process will normally take between two to three years, but concrete results can be felt within the first few months. Investing in such a process will not only keep any organisation ahead of its competitors but it will also allow it to leverage the power of AI technologies in order to advance the organisation as a whole.”

The inclusion of AI in its portfolio strengthens CI Consulta as a boutique specialised advisory firm.
