IBM has unveiled IBM Enterprise Advantage, a first-of-its-kind consulting service designed to help enterprises overcome common barriers to scaling AI. By drawing on IBM's internal success in using AI to transform its own operations, the offering provides clients with a proven playbook to build governed, action-oriented AI platforms that integrate seamlessly with their existing technology environments.
Flexible, Multi-Cloud, Multi-Model Approach Enterprise Advantage supports clients regardless of their preferred cloud provider or AI model ecosystem. Organizations can connect AI agents to legacy systems, orchestrate complex workflows, and deploy autonomous applications while maintaining full control over governance, security, and compliance. This flexibility preserves prior investments and reduces the risk of vendor lock-in.
Proven Internal Framework Now Available to Clients The service builds directly on IBM Consulting Advantage, IBM's internal AI-powered platform that has demonstrated up to 50% productivity gains for consultants across diverse client projects. With a marketplace of ready-to-use, industry-specific AI agents and applications, Enterprise Advantage accelerates time-to-value by providing pre-built assets and expert guidance tailored to each client's needs.
Real-World Client Examples Pearson, a global learning company, is leveraging Enterprise Advantage to develop a custom AI platform that combines human expertise with agentic assistants to streamline routine tasks and enhance decision-making. In another case, a manufacturing organization used the service to define its generative AI strategy, prototype high-impact use cases, align leadership, and deploy secure, multi-model AI assistants—establishing a foundation for broader enterprise-wide expansion.
Leadership Perspective "Many organizations are investing in AI, but achieving real value at scale remains a major challenge," said Mohamad Ali, Senior Vice President and Head of IBM Consulting. "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. Enterprise 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."
Enterprise Advantage is available now, offering enterprises a structured path to responsible, scalable AI adoption backed by IBM's hybrid cloud and AI leadership.
