Perficient to Discuss Real-World AI Applications for the Financial Services Industry at AI Summit New York

Perficient, Inc. (Nasdaq: PRFT) ("Perficient"), the leading digital transformation consulting firm serving Global 2000® and other large enterprise customers throughout North America, today announced it will speak at AI Summit New York, the world-leading AI event for business leaders, held Dec. 11-12 at the Javits Center in New York City.

Enterprises are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence (AI) as a key component in their digital transformation strategies to achieve competitive advantage, drive meaningful customer experiences, and increase efficiencies. As more companies invest in AI solutions, it is critical to make investments to address business problems with a vision for future scale.

"Emerging technologies like AI lend themselves to a perception that they can solve complex, challenging business issues in a very short time frame," said Christine Livingston, Chief Strategist of AI, Perficient. "That perception tends to limit learning opportunities essential to long-term success. Creating a roadmap grounded in smaller yet still meaningful projects allows companies to gain traction and build organizational confidence to move towards bigger goals."

Perficient helps companies align their AI investment with scalable use cases by establishing strategies that incorporate centers of excellence (CoE) structures and capability maps. The capability mapping process creates models built for scale and eliminates the need to rebuild a new solution with every use case.

Perficient recently developed an AI strategy for an American bank holding company. Seeking to infuse automation and AI into its back-office operations, Perficient leveraged multiple automation components including AI, robotic process automation, and digital process automation to incorporate visual recognition technology within their loan processing system. In addition to providing a scalable use case for future deployments, the strategic implementation reduced manual effort required for processing loans by 82 percent, resulting in meaningful cost savings.

Livingston will discuss the successful AI implementation during AI Summit New York. Included in the AI Finance Summit track, details about the presentation include:
