    Yes, AI Agents are here. And yes, you can trust them if you do it right. After productising several AI Agentic systems for companies like Pronect, Securex, GIS International, SD Worx, Ferranti Computer Systems, etc, we learned: ✅ AI Agents must be built on a solid data and evaluation foundation. ✅ You need Deep and comprehensive AI building experience and a solid understanding of the entire development lifecycle. ✅ Robust Software Engineering experience in developing and running data and products ✅ There needs to be a robust feedback loop between AI and Domain Experts, by designing user-friendly, no-code interfaces. At Faktion, "AI Product Studio as a service", we help our clients to break through the glass ceiling of building POCs and 𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻-𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀.

  • Why Integrated Supply Matters for Businesses? Supply chain inefficiencies are a common challenge for 40% of all businesses. Many companies are struggling with their supply chain mostly due to manual processes often related to a legacy of the past, a delay in the digital transition but also because of  fragmented supplier relationships. These elements lead to hidden costs and missed growth opportunities. In fact, businesses that adopt integrated supply strategies can reduce procurement costs by up to 20%, while significantly improving efficiency (McKinsey). Additionally, 60% of companies with fragmented supply chains face major disruptions during market fluctuations, compared to just 25% with streamlined systems (PwC). What are the key benefits of Integrated Supply and how can GIS International help?

    Estudiante de Administración de Empresas en la Universidad de Montevideo | Diplomas en Marketing y Emprendimiento e Innovación.

    Today is my last day at GIS International. After more than a year and a half, the time has come to close this chapter, as next semester I'll be going on an academic exchange. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to grow, learn, and apply the knowledge from my studies in a real professional setting. What I most appreciate about GIS is, without a doubt, the people. Thank you all for making me feel part of the team, for answering my questions, for all the conversations, and for the great energy. Now, I’m about to embark on new academic and personal challenges, but I’m confident that the tools and knowledge I’ve gained will help me face them with confidence.
