Summary
Arun Chandra, Chief Operating Officer at NiCE, analyses the conditions for scaling agentic AI in the enterprise. Around 80% of Fortune 500 companies have adopted the technology, but wider rollout remains uneven, with many organisations still at the stage of isolated pilots. He recommends applying the same standards to AI agents as to human employees, strengthening governance, security and change management, and linking the deployment strategy to measurable objectives (revenue, costs). He warns against the fragmentation that results from agent systems built in silos by different teams, and advises rethinking workflows rather than adding AI to existing processes, relying on unified data and access to the context that agents need to make decisions.
