The Project Management Institute (PMI) has released its own study on the penetration of generative AI systems (GenAI) into the field of project management.
The general conclusion is that at the moment GenAI is mainly used to solve general administrative tasks – control of planning, execution, reminders. This is due to the lack of deep integration of generative AI systems with project management tools.
The greatest demand has been identified for obtaining knowledge and recommendations from AI systems to improve the efficiency of work flows.
AI penetration rates vary significantly from 4% of organizations whose technical proficiency is assessed as “catch-up” to 38% for technically advanced organizations.
28% of organizations do not use AI at all, 45% at a minimal or medium level, 14; — significantly integrated AI systems into their project activities.
Most often, the use of AI tools in project management begins with the analysis and summarization of informal texts – interviews, minutes of meetings, etc. The highest percentage of involvement is for companies on the Microsoft Dynamics platforms (48% on average in the market and 90% in the segment of large corporations) and Azure services (95%)
The majority of respondents rated 4 factors as the most important for the successful implementation of AI systems – data, infrastructure, staff talent and corporate culture.
