Xponential AI Operating Model

How to accelerate the path to AI success and deliver better outcomes at scale

AI is transforming every industry, and forward-looking organizations are seizing the moment to unlock transformative results. While many invest millions in AI pilot programs that never scale, the real winners know success takes more than technology. It requires an AI framework that clearly connects AI to the people and processes of an organization. 

Introducing

Our repeatable AI orchestration blueprint enables leaders to deploy AI with speed, quality, and scale through five core pillars that most organizations only partially address.

xponential Blueprint

xponential

Insight

Make AI decisions explainable and defensible. Every AI solution includes built-in observability to ensure continuous monitoring, compliance, and governance across regulated enterprises.

xponential

Accelerators

Reduce time-to-value from months to weeks. An ecosystem of custom and partner-built tools means you focus on progress, not building from scratch.

xponential

Automation

Build systems that learn and improve continuously. Agentic AI frameworks optimize workflows by adapting to what works, reducing costs and enhancing operational efficiency.

xponential

Approach

Evolve from AI-assisted to AI-orchestrated work. Our workforce programs build AI proficiency while preserving human judgment where it matters most—strategic decisions and quality control.

Process

Start small, scale fast. Our delivery methods use MVPs to validate ideas and gather feedback before enterprise-wide deployment, avoiding the pilot trap that stalls 95% of AI initiatives.

Five pillars

Our enterprise AI orchestration blueprint is built for speed, quality, and scale. It's not a solution. It's the blueprint behind every solution.

Start small

Safe experimentation requires starting focused. Xponential uses MVPs to test hypotheses, measure impact, and validate business value before committing millions to enterprise deployment. Discover what truly drives results - then scale fast.

Scale fast

Transformation doesn’t happen all at once, it evolves. We help you prove value early, iterate with purpose, and expand confidently from MVP to enterprise scale.

Evolve with clarity: How Xponential drives AI transformations from vision to value.

Many organizations today dive into AI with high hopes, but 95% of AI pilots fail to deliver anticipated results, according to MIT research. The reason isn't the technology — it's that most organizations lack a cohesive strategy connecting AI technology to their people and processes.

Without this foundation, AI solutions that perform well in one department falter when other teams try to use them. Governance concerns stall adoption. Legacy system integration becomes technically cumbersome. Organizations invest in pilots that never scale.

These challenges demand a shift toward new ways of working, an approach that treats AI not as a standalone technology but as part of a broader transformation of how people and processes operate across the enterprise. DXC's Xponential addresses this gap — an enterprise AI orchestration blueprint that connects technology, people, and processes from pilot to scale.

Deploy AI with speed, scale, and trust

To bridge this gap, DXC developed Xponential, our enterprise AI orchestration blueprint designed to help organizations deploy AI with speed and at scale, all within a framework they can trust. This field-tested approach is the foundation for every AI solution DXC delivers. Xponential transforms AI's potential into real, measurable outcomes based on five core pillars:

  • Insight: Make AI decisions explainable and defensible

AI that drifts from its intended purpose or makes opaque decisions erodes trust and creates compliance risk. Every AI agent, automated decision, and intelligent process DXC builds includes observability and compliance from the start. This governance model provides clear visibility into how AI operates, who's accountable, and whether decisions follow ethical and operational standards — essential requirements for scaling AI effectively across regulated enterprises.

  • Accelerators: Reduce time to value from months to weeks

Getting started with AI doesn't mean starting from scratch. DXC combines purpose-built innovations with partner solutions to provide ready-to-use tools, saving teams time and effort so they can focus on progress instead of building everything from the ground up. This flexibility matters as AI continues to rapidly evolve. Rather than being locked into a single technology stack, organizations working with DXC can tap into a growing set of established tools that adapt as their needs change.

  • Automation: Build systems that learn and improve continuously

DXC deploys agentic-AI frameworks that do more than run tasks — they optimize entire workflows by learning from what works, what doesn't, and improving continuously. These agents escalate issues, update records, follow up with users, and adapt responses based on past interactions. This level of intelligence prompts organizations to rethink their processes, building systems that learn from experience rather than relying on quick fixes.

  • Approach: Evolve from AI-assisted to AI-orchestrated work

As AI matures, organizations must remain agile and regularly reassess their approach. But here's what we've learned: this isn't about building automations that replace people — it's about elevating our experts. Humans make the strategic decisions while AI handles the operational heavy lifting, freeing our teams to focus on what matters most. Engineers who once spent hours on repetitive coding tasks are now designing system architectures and solving complex business problems. The AI handles the routine; our people handle the innovation. This isn't theoretical — it's how we're already working internally, helping customers reduce costs and improve efficiency across their organizations.

  • Process: Start small, scale fast

Real change requires safe experimentation. DXC builds minimum viable products (MVPs) that deliver enough value to validate ideas and gather feedback. When we integrated agentic AI into our security operations center, we started small, proved the concept, then scaled deliberately. This approach helps teams discover what truly drives impact before committing to enterprise-wide deployment, avoiding the pilot trap that stalls 95% of AI initiatives.

 

From framework to results: Xponential in action

Xponential is already making a difference for DXC's partners around the world, including in highly regulated industries like healthcare, defense, and mission critical infrastructure services.

Singapore General Hospital is using Augmented Intelligence to improve antibiotic decisions and reduce unnecessary usage of antibiotics, a key driver of antimicrobial resistance. By partnering with DXC, the hospital developed the Augmented Intelligence in Infectious Disease (AI2D) solution, which has demonstrated 90% accuracy in identifying when antibiotics are truly needed for lower respiratory tract infections. The result: safer patient outcomes and meaningful progress towards combating antimicrobial resistance — a global health priority.

Textron, a US-based multi-industry company, partnered with DXC to transform its IT support model using automation and AI. This shift helped build a more agile workforce able to resolve issues more quickly and effectively. Textron cut service desk tickets by 20% using AI-powered chatbots trained on shared knowledge bases, freeing IT staff to focus on complex issues that require human expertise.

The European Space Agency, an intergovernmental organization that collaborates internationally and supports European industry and the economy through space technology and research, is working with DXC to implement ASK ESA, an AI-powered platform that unifies data, accelerates research, and enhances collaboration across the agency.

Ferrovial, a Netherlands-based transportation infrastructure company,  used DXC’s generative AI platform, AI Workbench to deploy more than 30 AI agents that boost efficiency and safety across critical projects like highways and airports. With strict privacy requirements, DXC’s platform provided the necessary controls while improving operations for Ferrovial’s 25,500 employees.

AI isn't just another tool. It's reshaping how people, processes, and technology work together across the enterprise. But ambition isn't enough. Organizations need a blueprint that guides responsible use, accelerates transformation, and preserves human judgment where it matters most.

DXC's Xponential is that blueprint. It's the foundation behind every AI solution we build. It has proven valuable internally and with our global enterprise customers operating mission-critical systems that demand unwavering reliability. Now we're ready to help you move from AI pilots to AI at scale.
