Event details
Most architecture, engineering, and accounting firms are already using AI. The ones pulling ahead aren’t using better tools; they are operating at a higher level of maturity. And that maturity is what’s driving them up the Professional Services performance curve.
For nearly two decades, the Professional Services Maturity Model™ developed by Service Performance Insight (SPI) and used by over 50,000 project-driven organizations globally has given firms a way to benchmark their performance and understand what it takes to move from one level to the next.
What SPI’s latest research on AI impact revealed is a direct correlation between where a firm sits on the AI maturity curve and how quickly it can advance on the Professional Services Maturity Model. AI maturity is not a separate technology initiative; it is one of the most powerful mechanisms available to firms that want to leapfrog performance levels.
Watch this on-demand session from SPI Research and sa.global to discover where your firm stands – and what it takes to move forward.
