AI meets Real-World - Project Decisions

Room BERLIN

12:00 – 12:45 pm

What really matters when AI supports project decision-making?

Description:

 

How are companies integrating artificial intelligence into project decision-making?
A team from Stellenbosch University has developed a practical framework with seven success factors for implementation in day-to-day project work. These include reliable data, transparent algorithms, intuitive user interfaces, organizational clarity – and most importantly, people willing to take responsibility.

The model was tested in a South African engineering firm and validated through a quantitative survey of over 30 project professionals. The findings are clear: companies integrating AI into projects need more than just technology. They need structure, trust, and a deep understanding of their own processes. Only then can AI reach its full potential –supporting decisions with more reliable data, in less time, and with greater predictive accuracy.

Key Takeaways:

 

Learn how to effectively use AI as decision support in projects and what conditions must be met for successful adoption. The framework offers project leaders clear guidance for introducing and evaluating AI-powered tools in their daily work.

All Participants will Receive the Academic Paper:
Conceptual Framework to Guide the Application of Artificial Intelligence in Project Management Decision Making.
