DXC launches global advisory and consulting group ‘AdvisoryX’

DXC Technology, an Ashburn, VA-headquartered IT consulting firm, on Wednesday announced the launch of AdvisoryX, a global advisory and consulting group focusing on solving strategic, operational, and technology challenges.

The firm says the new advisory group will help clients bridge the execution gap in artificial intelligence initiatives.

"Enterprises are under intense pressure to ‘do AI,’ but most still lack the fundamentals – optimized data, clear business cases, aligned leadership, and the right technical architecture. It’s why 94% hit execution challenges and pilots fail to scale,” said Pete McEvoy, global head of AdvisoryX Group, DXC Technology.

“AdvisoryX helps close that gap, enabling organizations to build from the ground up by establishing solid technical foundations, reimagining processes around value, implementing disciplined operations and validation, and designing interfaces that make AI work for people,” he added. “The result is AI that scales responsibly and delivers measurable impact."

The group draws on the 121,000-person company’s resources in corporate strategy, operational excellence, technology transformation, people and culture, finance and risk, and user experience.

AdvisoryX will provide five integrated solutions spanning the full lifecycle of AI initiatives.

• AI Core: Foundations for AI such as modeling, governance, and platform architecture
• AI Reinvent: Industry use cases across semi-autonomous and autonomous operating models
• AI Interact: Redesigned workflows to enable collaboration between people and AI
• AI Validate: Continuous testing and governance to ensure quality and safety
• AI Manage: Production operations and lifecycle management for evolving models and infrastructure

DXC earlier this year opened a new office in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
