80% of IT Leaders Say the Digital Workplace Is Critical to AI Success, Yet Only 10% Have Fundamentally Redesigned It, Lenovo Research Finds10.11.2026 16:00:00 EET | Press release

Eight in ten IT decision makers say the digital workplace is critical to successful AI-led transformation, yet only 10% report fundamentally redesigning it for AI, according to Lenovo’s sixth Work Reborn report, The AI-ready workplace. The findings expose a significant gap between deploying AI tools and the operating capabilities needed to integrate them into how work gets done across an organization. The report frames workplace readiness as a connected system spanning people, workflows, technology, support and governance, with each contributing to how enterprises translate AI ambition into business outcomes at scale. Based on an August 2026 survey of 1,200 IT leaders at organizations with at least 1,000 employees across 12 countries, the report examines the workplace conditions needed to translate AI deployment into measurable value. While 76% rank AI-led transformation among their organization’s top IT priorities, only 27% have scaled AI across business functions. AI Deployment Is No

Businesses across eight major economies incur $63.4 billion annually in technology infrastructure overspend attributable to opaque, unpredictable or difficult-to-forecast provider charges, forcing companies to scale back investments in artificial intelligence, hiring and new product development, according to new economic research from the Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR), commissioned by Wasabi Technologies.

It is also the category businesses find hardest to forecast. AI infrastructure costs are unpredictable for 22% of businesses, nearly double any other layer in the technology stack, where the range is between 8% and 12%. The findings expose a growing financial challenge for companies investing in AI. The in
