Making Sense of AI in the Enterprise SDLC: Where to Start
AI is reshaping every software delivery pipeline, but most organisations don't know where to begin. Here's a practical, no-hype framework for getting the sequence right, without the expensive wrong turns.
Every week brings another AI tool promising to transform your software delivery. Copilots, agents, automated testing, AI-generated code reviews - the options are dizzying. And the pressure to adopt is real: competitors are moving, executives are asking questions, and no one wants to be left behind.
But organisations that rush to layer AI onto a broken or poorly understood SDLC don't move faster, they may give the illusion of uplift but there is a big differece between individual effectivesness and life cycle productivity. Before you consider where AI fits, you need to understand what you're actually working with.
