The BDO Techtonic States report, produced by BDO’s international network, examines how organizations can scale technological innovations in a controlled and sustainable manner so that the impacts are measurable and support long-term business strategy.
Artificial intelligence and advanced technologies are already an integral part of everyday life in organizations. However, a true competitive advantage does not come from simply adopting technology, but from how that technology is integrated into business operations, decision-making, and sustainability goals. The report explores how leading organizations combine data-driven decision-making, agility, and strategic clarity to support sustainable growth.
Key themes of the report
- The use of AI is on the rise – a systematic approach is key
The majority of business leaders believe that artificial intelligence will be widely adopted by 2028. However, successful companies are taking a step-by-step approach: they are focusing on data readiness, risk management, and specific use cases with clearly measurable benefits.
- Sustainability as part of the technology strategy
EU regulations, such as the CSRD and CSDDD, require greater transparency throughout the entire value chain. At the same time, the environmental impacts of technology, particularly AI, are growing. The report emphasizes that sustainability cannot be a separate add-on, but must be an integral part of technology decisions and strategic guidance as well.
- Measurability is a requirement for successful technological change
The value of technology is only realized when its impact is systematically measured. Clear KPI models, baseline definitions, and continuous monitoring help assess the impact of AI projects on productivity, customer experience, and growth, for example.
The report offers practical insights and research findings for organizations that want to scale technology in a controlled, responsible manner that genuinely supports their business operations.
