The research by Dell — Boomi and Omdia highlights a significant gap between AI ambition and execution in the MSCI Asia Pacific Index region, primarily due to weak data foundations. This could lead to increased demand for data integration, governance, and quality solutions, benefiting companies like Dell — Boomi that offer such platforms. Organizations in countries like Australia and New Zealand that fail to address these data challenges may see reduced ROI from their AI investments, potentially impacting their operational efficiency and competitive advantage.

Dell — Boomi, in collaboration with Omdia, released new research indicating that despite rapid AI adoption across the MSCI Asia Pacific Index region, many organizations are struggling to achieve measurable ROI due to inadequate data architecture. The survey, which included over 1,100 senior technology and business decision-makers from Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines, found that while 74% are actively pursuing AI initiatives, only 46% have a platform-led approach to integration. Key issues identified include weak data foundations, a lack of formal AI-specific data governance policies, and unmanaged shadow integrations disrupting data quality. David Iarecki of Dell — Boomi and Michael Barnes of Omdia emphasized the critical need for unified integration, governance, and data quality frameworks to translate AI deployments into sustainable business value and competitive advantage.
