3:40 PM Think Tank I: Making Smart Investments: Evaluating Technology That Drives Impact

Digital and AI transformation is accelerating, but many organizations still struggle to capture full value from their investments. In a crowded technology landscape, identifying the right solution and the right partners, requires a disciplined, outcome-driven approach.

Collaborate in this think tank to compare frameworks and uncover practical approaches for evaluating, prioritizing, and funding technologies that deliver measurable results and evolve with the business.

Discussion themes include:

Assessing scalability, flexibility, and long-term fit when selecting digital tools and platforms
Mapping current processes, identifying bottlenecks, and prioritizing areas with the highest potential for impact
Ensuring digital investments support critical activities like throughput, quality, safety, and workforce enablement
Structuring deployment plans that balance speed, budget control, and organizational readiness
Creating repeatable processes for assessing vendor capabilities, forecasting returns, and avoiding “shiny object” distractions
