This session presents a practical blueprint to shorten time-to-value by treating Plan, Build and Run as one continuous engine. The bottleneck is rarely delivery any more: AI has made building fast and cheap. It is planning and decision-making.

Leaders cannot set ambitious goals without understanding what is now possible, and without clear priorities AI only accelerates activity.

We focus on three levers that consistently speed up value: hands-on business ownership rather than delegation to IT; platform-first delivery, since in Sofigate's research the benefits so far have come mainly from agents built on business platforms; and one shared operating model that business, IT and partners can execute together as agents scale.

In the session, concrete examples are provided on how the small municipality of Konnevesi (increased their productivity by 85% in the AI pilot) and how another customer from a narrow pilot to AI agents and reached about 70% of password-reset requests resolved automatically)

Attendees leave with a diagnostic for where time-to-value is lost and a "first six weeks" approach from ideas to operational impact.

Key learnings:

- Diagnose where time-to-value is lost across planning, delivery and operations
- Apply three levers that speed up outcomes: business ownership, platform-first delivery and a shared operating model
- Keep ownership, quality and security under control as AI agents scale

CIOs/CTOs, digital & transformation leaders, product/platform owners, enterprise architects, delivery/service leaders.
