Rising Adoption of AI and Automation
AI is transforming the project and resource management practices of firms within the UK Professional Services Automation (PSA) market through its adoption. AI-enabled tools enhance the precision of resource allocation, streamline scheduling and optimize workforce assignment based on skills and project requirements. These tools come with predictive analytics that help the firm predict bottlenecks in project execution and adjust strategies accordingly. Integrating AI into workflows eliminates repetitive tasks like tracking time and invoicing, thus raising operational efficiency. AI-supported decision-making tools generate insights that enhance business productivity in real-time and facilitate data-driven business decisions for firms. For instance, in July 2023, KPMG and Microsoft announced the expansion of their global partnership to incorporate AI solutions in professional services. The alliance includes a multibillion-dollar commitment from KPMG in Microsoft cloud and AI services over the next 5 years. This collaboration aims to enhance client engagements, supercharge the employee experience, and empower KPMG's workforce. The alliance will also benefit KPMG's core business areas, such as audit and tax, with the integration of Microsoft technologies.
Cloud Based PSA Solutions
The shift towards cloud-based PSA solutions in the UK market is propelled by the pressing demand for higher levels of flexibility and scalability among professional services firms. Due to the cloud platforms, companies have real-time access to data from any location, enhance team collaboration, and ensure adherence to project timelines. The scalable nature of these solutions allows firms to increase their capabilities in tandem with their growth without hefty upfront infrastructure costs. Cloud-based PSA guarantees features like automatic updates to serve its users better, security, and compatibility with several other cloud applications, making them ideal for modern organizations. For instance, in July 2024, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO) announced the selection of iplicit's cloud accounting software to manage its finances. The orchestra, known for its global performances and recordings, found that implicit solutions perfectly met its needs.
