Enterprise AI Agent Pilots Rarely Reach Deployment

Deloitte's research highlights a significant challenge in the deployment of AI agents, with 89% of pilots failing to reach production. The problem lies not in the AI models but in the operational infrastructure, such as data access and cost control. Companies like Crunch-IS are leading by focusing on these operational aspects. Successful enterprises allocate resources to evaluation and governance rather than just prompt engineering, showing that a strong operational foundation is crucial for scaling AI agents.
