Data for AI: Where Value & Risk Meet
While strategic growth ambitions set the direction, success hinges on operational execution. This is where AI becomes a pivotal enabler, bridging the gap between vision and reality.
The benefits of Business AI expand across all business operations; from automation of repetitive tasks, driving personalized customer experiences to empowering data-driven decision-making, AI drives efficiency, cost reduction, and scalability.
For APAC Businesses where AI has been deployed, these benefits are tangible:
• 61.5% of organizations say job satisfaction has improved, thanks to the reduction in repetitive tasks.
• 53.1% say AI has improved collaboration and communication across teams.
• 50% report improvement in work-life balance among employees, enabled by smarter workflows and reduced manual effort.
Perceived AI Risks
AI’s promise - automation, better decisions, happier teams - depends on IT’s ability to unify, govern, and activate enterprise data. The right platform turns IT from a cost center into a growth engine.
Insufficient data size / quality 34 .8%
Acting on Incorrect data 33 %
Lack of transparency 32 .3%
Data privacy controls 29 %
By investing in a unified data foundation like SAP Business Data Cloud (BDC), APAC organizations can overcome these barriers, ensuring that AI and analytics initiatives are built on reliable, accessible, and governed data, turning strategy into measurable results.
