About the initiative
Description of the initiative
Build a secure, scalable AI platform that extends the Enterprise Data Hub (EDH) and enables DFO teams to develop, deploy and govern AI solutions that will accelerate insights, support scientific discovery and uphold the highest standards of data quality, security, and ethical use.
Problem statement
Despite individual business teams experimenting with AI for years, the organization lacks a unified, enterprise‑grade platform to reliably deploy, scale, and operate AI solutions in production. This gap prevents AI initiatives from moving beyond isolated prototypes and limits the ability to deliver secure, governed, and scalable AI capabilities across the enterprise.
