    Delivering transformative results

    EY teams work with clients globally to identify the strategic disruptions that generative AI (GenAI) is creating.  We help firms make better, faster investment decisions and find productivity and efficiency gains across their business. We also support them in significantly increasing the value of their portfolio companies, focused on disrupting business models, growing revenue, reducing costs and improving productivity.

    EY teams do this in ways that can help augment the potential of the people in a business and give leaders confidence they are making responsible use of GenAI, by creating the frameworks and governance needed to support rapid and responsible transformation.

    We are recognized by our clients for translating ideas into pragmatic solutions and for execution that delivers results, understanding what is important to get right with AI.

    How EY can help you

    EY teams can support private equity firms across the full investment lifecycle by defining GenAI strategies, creating specific use cases, engineering solutions, and helping to drive their optimal and rapid implementation. We leverage our capabilities along with our partner ecosystem and alliances technologies to help deliver successful GenAI deployment.

    Define strategies

    Support private equity firms and portfolio companies to define new strategies with the right business and operating models as well as technology architectures, so they can quickly implement leading GenAI use cases at a scale that delivers exponential value.

    Prioritize use cases

    Identify and prioritize specific GenAI use cases that can help drive investment decisions, improve productivity and efficiency across their business, and have a transformative impact on a portfolio company’s ability to execute its strategy, create value, and achieve its growth goals.

    Quantify ROI

    Define and quantify potential return on GenAI investment by creating clear and realistic business cases, using "value accelerator models" that show where, how and when a GenAI use case could deliver value and at what cost.

    Define the foundations

    Support the development of the governance, risk and control frameworks that enable profitable and responsible use of GenAI across the enterprise, including considerations for these frameworks to evolve as the organization’s use of GenAI evolves.

    Engineer and implement solutions

    Execute and enhance transformative GenAI uses cases, so the return on investment on these use cases can be achieved, inside extremely tight timescales.
