The Oracle & Accenture AI & Digital Project Delivery Innovation Forum in Utrecht (Netherlands) brought together a diverse group of vetted startups, partners and strategic clients. Lili.ai was one of the speaker, along VREX, 36Zero, ProperGate, AI Clearing and Accenture X.
For years, AI in project delivery was perceived as a futuristic idea, far from day-to-day operations. When Lili.ai started in 2016, the notion of using artificial intelligence to manage risks, uncover insights, and support decision-making in complex projects often raised eyebrows. Today, AI is no longer a “nice to have” add-on; it is becoming the way major projects are being delivered at scale.
What is driving this shift is not just automation, but the ability to unlock value from previously underused sources of information. By analysing these unstructured data and signals at scale, AI can detect early-warning signs, reveal patterns of risk, and surface insights that human teams would struggle to capture in time.
The Forum highlighted concrete use cases where AI is already making a measurable difference for delivery teams: for instance identifying emerging delays before they appear in schedules. The focus throughout was on outcomes rather than buzzwords: where does AI shorten decision cycles, reduce claims, or help teams keep projects on time and on budget?
Events like the AI & Digital Project Delivery Innovation Forum underscore a simple reality: the future of major projects will be shaped by those who can combine domain expertise, robust data foundations, and advanced AI. Lili.ai is committed to playing a leading role in this transformation, helping organisations deliver complex projects more reliably in an increasingly demanding world.
