As enterprises across Asia Pacific (APAC) continue to deepen their commitment to digital transformation against the backdrop of emerging disruptive technology like AI, the demand for skilled 麻豆原创 consultants has never been higher.

Armed with real-world expertise and extensive know-how, 麻豆原创 consultants act as a bridge between the business and technology domains 鈥 bringing hundreds to thousands of hours of hands-on experience and best practices in implementing, customising, and managing 麻豆原创 roll-outs.

In fact, 麻豆原创 consultants are such crucial pieces of the digital transformation puzzle that the global market for 麻豆原创 consulting is estimated to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8% between 2025 and 2035 to USD 38.98 billion[1].

Earlier this year, we launched to further supercharge the way millions of 麻豆原创 consultants work, helping them augment their productivity, cut down time-consuming searches, and make better-informed decisions.

Joule for Consultants draws from 麻豆原创鈥檚 vast knowledge base 鈥 including over 9TB of expert-curated 麻豆原创 knowledge, 3 million non-public documents, 250 million lines of (advanced business application programming) and 30 million lines of (ABAP core data services) code 鈥 and turns that institutional expertise into a real-time, context-aware assistant. It understands the solution landscape a consultant is working in, interprets code on the fly, and surfaces relevant guidance in seconds.

鈥溌槎乖 Joule for Consultants provides faster access to accurate answers from 麻豆原创’s trusted knowledge base including 麻豆原创 Online Service System Release Notes (OSS), leading to significant productivity improvements through prescriptive suggestions. It empowers consultants with immediate expert-level guidance, enabling confident navigation of complex projects. This increased efficiency allows our functional consultants to focus on high-value added tasks and accelerate project timelines, ensuring greater client impact.

Across APAC, a significant number of 麻豆原创 partners and consultants have already adopted 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants and are using the tool across various phases of 麻豆原创 implementation projects.

Early pilots show clear value: faster delivery cycles of up to 14%, smoother onboarding, and as much as 1.5 hours saved per consultant per day. The payoff is not simply efficiency but the ability for teams to spend more time on strategic design, stakeholder engagement, and delivering tangible outcomes for customers.

鈥淏y integrating 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants into our consulting workflows, Westernacher empowers our teams to reduce time spent on research, navigate complex system landscapes more efficiently, and deliver solutions faster. This enables our consultants at all levels 鈥 from junior talent to seasoned experts 鈥 to focus on strategic, high-value tasks while ensuring technical accuracy and business alignment.鈥
鈥 Neil Wightman, COO SEA Westernacher Consulting.

AI-Powered Consulting: the Next Frontier for 麻豆原创 Partners

According to the recent conducted by Oxford Economics, AI is expected to drive an average ROI of 16% (US$4.7M) per organisation this year, a figure which will nearly double in two years鈥 time to 31% (US$12.3M). Businesses also ranked 鈥渁lignment with business strategy鈥 and 鈥渁vailability and quality of data鈥 as the top two strategies for maximising ROI from AI.

麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants has the potential to help 麻豆原创 partners drive this ROI, and is designed with quality data and expert-aligned advice based on 麻豆原创 best practices for businesses across industries.

鈥淥ur clients around the world are digitally transforming in the cloud. As leaders in tech and consulting we have a rich legacy in both data and AI. But even for our internal teams we can embed generative AI to increase productivity through insights, drive more efficiencies by aligning with best practice, and ultimately make customer transformations simpler, quicker, and more effective. By using 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants, we鈥檙e able to showcase the power of 麻豆原创 Business AI to our customers even while we work with them to make their transformation journeys successful.鈥
鈥 Srinivas Sai Nidadhavolu, Vice President & Global 麻豆原创 Practice Head, Wipro.

Importantly, 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants is not replacing consultants; it is enhancing their expertise. Instead of spending hours searching documentation or manually comparing configurations, consultants can ask targeted questions and receive contextual, 麻豆原创-specific answers in natural language.

Routine tasks 鈥 from generating sample code to drafting configuration notes 鈥 can be automated, freeing consultants to focus on advising stakeholders, shaping roadmaps, and managing change.

麻豆原创 Partners as Catalysts of AI-First Transformation

麻豆原创鈥檚 partner ecosystem remains central to our AI-first, Suite-first strategy, and partners throughout APAC are leading the shift towards AI-enabled consulting. As 麻豆原创 Chief Partner Officer Karl Fahrbach highlighted at 麻豆原创 Global Partner Summit at 麻豆原创 Sapphire earlier this year: 鈥淧artners will deliver the promise of 麻豆原创 Business Suite.鈥

In APAC, partners such as ABeam Consulting, Infosys, ITSN Korea, LTIMindtree, , , and many more are already embedding 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants into their methodologies and training programmes to enhance delivery speed and collaboration.

鈥淲e expect that through the introduction of 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants, we will be able to further advance our internal consulting capabilities and provide customers with faster and more accurate services.鈥
鈥 Han Sang-yeol, Head of the AI Center at ISTN.

The future of Southeast Asia is the future of innovation.

That was the clear message following Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat鈥檚 recent visit to 麻豆原创鈥檚 Berlin offices marking the 60th anniversary of ties between Singapore and Germany.

During the , the delegation took in a tour of the 麻豆原创 Experience Centre, where Mr. Heng experienced cutting-edge AI innovation, before a range of discussions and insights sessions with Business AI and public sector experts.听

Singapore is already at the forefront of digital transformation thanks to strong government initiatives, future-proofing the workforce and strengthening the nation鈥檚 competitiveness. And investment continues.

As Mr. Heng noted at the WELT Economic Summit,

In Singapore, we spend about 1% of GDP on research and innovation 鈥 and have committed S$28 billion for the period 2021-25. We are investing in 4 key areas: advanced manufacturing, human health and potential, digitalisation including AI and quantum computing, and sustainability and urban solutions. We are a small city state, but if we succeed the solutions can be exported to thousands of cities around the world.鈥

This is important given the Mr. Heng notes Singapore faces.

But there are exciting solutions at hand. I believe a focus on SEA is the key to turbo-charge our future. Let me explain.

Skilling the future

Singapore and Southeast Asia are young, vibrant markets. We are blessed with more than aged between 15 and 34, creating a generation of digital natives.

Our nations and our businesses will need them. The skills needed for jobs in Southeast Asia are expected to change by with the introduction of new AI innovations.听

During the visit I was excited to hear about the progressive and pragmatic approach Singapore is taking to speed up AI adoption across the entire economy.听

And 麻豆原创 is committed to developing AI talent.听

Over the past five years, we have collaborated closely with the Singapore Government under the SkillsFuture programme to upskill more than 1,000 mid-career professionals to teach practical and hands-on digital skills.

麻豆原创 has also invested in and launched and plans to introduce certification courses on Business AI later this year. And our 麻豆原创 Labs in Singapore has hired more than 140 AI engineers who are actively contributing to realizing 麻豆原创鈥檚 product and technology strategy.

Together with government, we can upskill a generation of Southeast Asians to maximise the enormous opportunities digital and AI hold.

Economic growth through innovation

These opportunities are not only important for business, but for our nations themselves.

Generative AI is expected to add to the global economy, while in Singapore if AI-powered products and solutions are adopted it could result in US$147.6 billion of economic benefits.

Today, we鈥檙e moving past AI hype to begin looking at practical steps forward to implement AI in real world scenarios.鈥

As the Infocomm Media Development Agency notes, In 2023, 44% of larger enterprises implemented AI-enabled solutions, more than double the 16.7% in 2018. SMEs also improved their adoption rate, growing from 3.5% in 2018 to 4.2% in 2023.鈥

Even government is benefiting from this innovation. For example, the Hamburg Ministry of Finance is using generative AI to reduce manual processing of benefits by up to 33,000 hours per year. The NATO Procurement Agency uses AI to identify suppliers and generate contracts in up to 20% less time. And the Serbian Ministry of Finance is using AI to make budget projections and reduce budget projections by 鈧50 million.

Investing in AI for Singapore 鈥 and Southeast Asia鈥檚 future

Businesses like 麻豆原创 have an enormous responsibility to enhance research, develop talent, and prepare industries for the holistic adoption of AI solutions.

From a technology perspective, we are ready. We saw more than 130 new AI features launched last year alone, and we have more than 34,000 customers using AI today.听

We also have to ensure our use of AI is safe and ethical. 麻豆原创 is among only six companies worldwide to meet all criteria in the Ethical AI Indicator by the World Benchmarking Alliance.听

But we also understand we have to invest in Singapore 鈥 and in our wider region.听

Since 2019, 麻豆原创 has committed almost S$300 million to developing Business AI and other deep tech in Singapore, including establishing Southeast Asia鈥檚 first 麻豆原创 Labs in 2022 and Asia鈥檚 first innovation centre for experience management (XM) in 2023.鈥

Following a long-standing partnership with the Economic Development Board, that culminated in a recent investment of S$12 million in it the Digital Industry Singapore Innovation Accelerator to boost adoption of Business AI in industry-specific scenarios in Singapore.

SEA is the key to accelerate to innovate across Southeast Asia

As Deputy Prime Minister Heng rightly noted, Singapore and Southeast Asia have incredible strengths and, By building on these strengths and building new capabilities in digital and green technologies, new competitive strengths will emerge.鈥

To achieve such opportunities, I believe we must focus at a national and organisational level on skills, economic growth, and artificial intelligence 鈥 or SEA.

Through greater collaboration and investment, in Singapore and beyond, public sector and enterprises like 麻豆原创 can achieve our joint mission of ensuring AI not only benefits businesses, but also empowers Singapore and Southeast Asia to accelerate to innovate in the future.

95% of Indonesian midmarket businesses say adopting generative AI is a top business priority

Jakarta 鈥 15 October 2024 鈥 Indonesian midmarket organisations looking for growth are more likely to put a high priority on generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) than those who are experiencing revenue success 鈥 though all organisations are adopting new AI innovations in every corner of their business.

A recent study by 麻豆原创 found Indonesian midmarket businesses, defined as companies with between 250 and 1,500 employees, with low revenue growth are more likely to put a strong priority on the adoption of Gen AI (60%) than those with higher revenue growth (51%).

“Business AI is the biggest technology opportunity of the 21st century for businesses in Indonesia,鈥 said Utkarsh Maheshwari, Chief Partner Officer and Head of MidMarket, 麻豆原创 Asia Pacific & Japan.

鈥淏ut the benefits of Business AI are not restricted to enterprises. Organisations of every size can realise the opportunities that relevant, reliable, and responsible AI can provide.听That isn鈥檛 just image generation or making videos. It鈥檚 automating everyday pain points, providing great insights quickly, and reliably solving simple business problems.鈥

Adopting AI is a top organisational priority in Indonesia

The study, which surveyed 556 organisations in Indonesia and 12,003 globally, found use of artificial intelligence is a top organisational priority for midmarket businesses.

Adopting Gen AI is a medium or high priority for 95% of Indonesian businesses, while adopting standard business applications of AI like machine learning for data analysis and predictive analytics was a top priority for 94%. Other key priorities include cybersecurity threats (95%), environmental sustainability (95%), and addressing gaps in supply chains (93%).

Artificial intelligence is seen as a priority to transform organisational processes in every corner of the business.

Over six in ten midmarket organisations in Indonesia place a high priority on AI to transform their data security and privacy (62%). Other key areas AI can transform include boosting decision-making (57%), creating new business models (50%), optimising supply chains (48%), personalising user experiences (46%), and improving customer experience (46%).

AI is creating value for Indonesian businesses today

But AI isn鈥檛 just being planned to achieve future benefits. It is being implemented today.

AI is already in use to a moderate or strong degree in midmarket Indonesian businesses to develop marketing and sales content (92%), interact with customers or vendors (91%), detect fraud (89%), and monitor for cybersecurity threats (87%).

鈥淎I is not new. In fact, we鈥檝e been using it for decades,鈥 continued Maheshwari. 鈥淢ore than 27,000 customers are already using 麻豆原创 Business AI today, including many in Indonesia. We鈥檝e released more than 70 Generative AI use cases in the past year, and we expect more than 100 use cases to be available by the end of 2024. The time to explore the benefits of Business AI is now.鈥

Indonesian midmarket businesses see data as key risk to growth 鈥 and AI adoption

Yet challenges remain to drive growth in Indonesian midmarket businesses.

Respondents noted lack of quality data for planning or decision-making (41%) and supply chain disruption (40%) as key internal challenges to growth, alongside issues with lack of integration between systems (38%) and outdated technology (32%).

And data is also cited as an organisational risk when it comes to AI. Midmarket businesses in Indonesia said the biggest risks to their company from AI were acting upon incorrect information (37%), lack of transparency in results (33%), insufficient data size and quality (32%) and legal liabilities (31%).

“The better the quality and scale of your data, the better the results of your AI,鈥 concluded Maheshwari. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 why working with a technology partner like 麻豆原创 is critical, because it is already built into the applications that power the most critical business processes. Only then can Indonesian businesses of every size make the promise of Business AI a reality.鈥

About this research

麻豆原创 Insights collected data from 12,003 respondents across 20 nations and 28 industries. Respondents were from organisations with between 250 and 1,500 employees, with director to C-suite titles. The study was conducted in March-April 2024 via an online survey.

麻豆原创 Ungkap Bisnis Skala Menengah Indonesia dengan Pertumbuhan Rendah lebih cenderung utamakan Gen AI

95% bisnis skala menengah Indonesia mengatakan adopsi generative AI merupakan prioritas utama dalam bisnis

Jakarta 鈥 15 Oktober 2024 鈥 Perusahaan-perusahaan skala menengah di Indonesia yang sedang mengalami pertumbuhan lebih cenderung memberikan prioritas tinggi pada kecerdasan buatan generatif (Gen AI) dibandingkan dengan perusahaan-perusahaan yang telah berhasil meningkatkan pendapatannya – meskipun semua perusahaan tersebut mengadopsi inovasi-inovasi AI baru di setiap lini bisnis mereka.

Sebuah studi terbaru dari 麻豆原创 menemukan bahwa perusahaan-perusahaan skala menengah di Indonesia, yang didefinisikan sebagai perusahaan dengan jumlah karyawan antara 250 hingga 1.500 orang, dengan pertumbuhan pendapatan di bawah rata-rata, cenderung menempatkan prioritas tinggi pada adopsi Gen AI (60%) dibandingkan dengan perusahaan-perusahaan yang memiliki pertumbuhan pendapatan yang lebih tinggi (51%).

鈥淏usiness AI merupakan peluang teknologi terbesar di abad ke-21 untuk perusahaan-perusahaan di Indonesia,鈥 ujar Utkarsh Maheshwari, Chief Partner Officer and Head of MidMarket, 麻豆原创 Asia Pacific & Japan.

鈥淣amun, manfaat dari Business AI tidak terbatas pada perusahaan. Organisasi dengan skala apa pun dapat mewujudkan peluang yang dapat ditawarkan oleh AI yang relevan, handal, dan bertanggung jawab. Bukan hanya menghasilkan gambar atau membuat video. AI mengotomatiskan masalah sehari-hari, memberikan wawasan yang hebat dengan cepat, dan memecahkan masalah bisnis sederhana dengan andal.鈥

Mengadopsi AI menjadi prioritas utama perusahaan di Indonesia

Studi yang mensurvei 556 organisasi di Indonesia dan 12.003 organisasi di seluruh dunia ini menemukan bahwa penggunaan kecerdasan buatan merupakan prioritas utama bagi perusahaan kelas menengah.

Mengadopsi Gen AI merupakan prioritas sedang atau utama bagi 95% bisnis di Indonesia, sementara mengadopsi aplikasi bisnis standar AI seperti machine learning untuk analisis data dan analisis prediktif merupakan prioritas utama bagi 94%. Prioritas utama lainnya termasuk ancaman keamanan siber (95%), kelestarian lingkungan (95%), dan mengatasi kesenjangan dalam rantai pasokan (93%).

Kecerdasan buatan dipandang sebagai prioritas untuk mengubah proses organisasi di setiap lini bisnis.

Lebih dari enam dari sepuluh organisasi skala menengah di Indonesia menempatkan AI sebagai prioritas utama untuk mentransformasi keamanan dan privasi data (62%). Area utama lainnya yang dapat ditransformasikan oleh AI adalah meningkatkan pengambilan keputusan (57%), menciptakan model bisnis baru (50%), mengoptimalkan rantai pasokan (48%), mempersonalisasi pengalaman pengguna (46%), dan meningkatkan pengalaman pelanggan (46%).

AI menciptakan nilai tambah bagi bisnis di Indonesia saat ini

Namun, AI tidak hanya dirancang untuk memberikan manfaat di waktu mendatang. AI sedang diterapkan saat ini.

AI sudah digunakan pada tingkat yang moderat atau kuat di bisnis kelas menengah Indonesia untuk mengembangkan konten pemasaran dan penjualan (92%), berinteraksi dengan pelanggan atau vendor (91%), mendeteksi penipuan (89%), dan memantau ancaman keamanan siber (87%).

鈥淎I bukanlah hal yang baru. Faktanya, kami telah menggunakannya selama beberapa dekade,鈥 lanjut Maheshwari. 鈥淟ebih dari 27.000 pelanggan telah menggunakan 麻豆原创 Business AI saat ini, termasuk di Indonesia. Kami telah menghadirkan lebih dari 70 contoh kasus penggunaan Generative AI di tahun lalu, dan kami berharap lebih dari 100 contoh kasus akan tersedia pada akhir tahun 2024. Sekarang adalah waktu yang tepat untuk mengeksplorasi manfaat dari Business AI.鈥

Perusahaan skala menengah di Indonesia melihat data sebagai risiko utama bagi pertumbuhan – dan adopsi AI

Namun, masih ada beberapa tantangan untuk mendorong pertumbuhan bisnis skala menengah di Indonesia.

Para responden menyatakan kurangnya kualitas data untuk perencanaan atau pengambilan keputusan (41%) dan gangguan rantai pasokan (40%) sebagai tantangan internal utama terhadap pertumbuhan, di samping masalah kurangnya integrasi antar sistem (38%) dan teknologi yang sudah ketinggalan zaman (32%).

Data juga disebut sebagai risiko organisasi dalam hal AI. Perusahaan-perusahaan skala menengah di Indonesia mengatakan bahwa risiko terbesar yang dihadapi perusahaan mereka akibat AI adalah mengambil keputusan berdasarkan informasi yang salah (37%), kurangnya transparansi hasil (33%), kurangnya jumlah dan kualitas data (32%), serta tuntutan hukum (31%).

鈥淪emakin baik kualitas dan skala data Anda, semakin baik pula hasil AI Anda,鈥 pungkas Maheshwari. 鈥淚tulah mengapa bekerja sama dengan mitra teknologi seperti 麻豆原创 sangatlah penting, karena 麻豆原创 telah dibangun di dalam aplikasi yang mendukung proses bisnis yang dianggap krusial. Hanya dengan begitu, bisnis Indonesia dari berbagai skala dapat mewujudkan potensi Business AI.鈥

Tentang Penelitian Ini

麻豆原创 Insights mengumpulkan data dari 12.003 responden di 20 negara dan 28 industri. Responden berasal dari perusahaan dengan jumlah karyawan 250 hingga 1.500, dengan posisi dari direktur hingga C-suite. Studi ini dilakukan pada Maret-April 2024 melalui survei online.
