IBM Enterprise Advantage, a groundbreaking asset-based consulting service, has been launched to help organizations build, govern, and operate tailored internal AI platforms at scale. This innovative service combines proven AI tools and expertise to enable businesses to redesign workflows, connect AI to existing systems, and scale new agentic applications without requiring changes to their cloud providers, AI models, or core infrastructure.
The service supports major platforms including Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, IBM watsonx, and both open and closed-source models, allowing companies to maximize their existing technology investments while accelerating AI adoption across their enterprises.
Proven Technology Powering IBM Enterprise Advantage
The service brings together the technical and industry expertise of IBM consultants with technology built from IBM Consulting Advantage, IBM’s own internal AI-powered delivery platform. With a growing marketplace of industry-specific AI agents and applications, Consulting Advantage has already supported more than 150 client engagements and demonstrated the ability to boost consultants’ productivity by up to 50%, helping clients achieve faster results.
IBM is now giving clients access to the same proven approach and capabilities to build their own AI platforms and navigate the complex AI marketplace to drive enterprise value. This democratization of IBM’s internal tools represents a significant shift in how consulting services deliver value to clients.
