As enterprises move beyond the era of AI experimentation, the imperative is no longer to prove that AI works—but to embed it into the fabric of how work gets done. Persistent Systems and Deluxe present a joint perspective on how enterprises can shift from scattered AI experiments to operating standards, drawing on a live transformation that is turning fragmented pilots into scalable, explainable, resilient ways of working. 

Gain a strategic view of key developments shaping this shift: the move from standalone tools to task-aligned platforms, the evolution of agents from assistants to auditable actors, and the transformation of delivery models. Through Deluxe’s ongoing transformation journey, we’ll show how clear standards can accelerate time-to-insight, reduce handoffs between business and IT, and enable safe reuse of AI patterns across functions.

This is a blueprint for leaders seeking to institutionalize AI as a managed capability, not a one-off initiative. It is a story of how possibility becomes practice—where speed is earned through clarity, and innovation is sustained through standards.
