From AI Adoption to AI Value: Processes, Platforms and Costs

The Analytics Institute Government and Public Sector Data Leaders Forum is designed to bring together leaders in the data & analytics sector to address challenges and opportunities unique to the public sector.

Our next Government Data Leaders event will take place at TBC on Thursday 08th April 2027, from 09:30 to 11:30.

This invitation-only session will bring together senior data leaders from across Government and the wider public service.

Most organisations have adopted AI in some form, but few have redesigned their work to get real value from it. This session looks at the practical side of moving from adoption to value: rethinking processes, choosing and running platforms, and understanding what it all costs.

The discussion will cover:

  • Process redesign: why most organisations stall after adoption, what the leading 6% do differently, and how to break down existing processes to find where AI adds value
  • Platforms and tools: practical experience of analytics and AI platforms, and how well they fit with existing enterprise architecture, particularly for Microsoft-based organisations
  • Implementation and maintenance: what’s involved beyond the initial rollout
  • Cloud and AI cost models: consumption-based pricing, licensing and budgeting when costs are no longer fixed

Speakers to be announced.

The session will be peer-led, providing a valuable opportunity for open discussion and knowledge sharing among senior leaders working on similar priorities across Government.

Tea/coffee & light breakfast will be served.

This event is invite-only for Data Government Leaders. All nominated Government Data Leaders will be sent an invite directly. If you are a government or semi-state body and would like to attend, please email [email protected]
