Why AI investment drifts without a data and AI strategy roadmap
Without a plan, spending follows whichever tool is in the headlines rather than a defined business need.

We know AI matters but have no plan
Projects start in isolation and end up competing for the same budget. Microsoft and LinkedIn’s 2024 Work Trend Index found 60% of leaders say their company lacks a vision and plan to implement AI.

No obvious place to start
Without a clear use case, AI stays on the wish list. Among UK businesses asked about barriers in the Government’s AI Adoption Research, 71% cited a lack of identified need for AI.

Spend we can't link to outcomes
Data investment is hard to defend at budget time without agreed measures. Gartner’s 2025 CDAO Agenda Survey found only 22% of organisations have defined, tracked and communicated business impact metrics for most data and analytics use cases.

A roadmap ties each investment to a business outcome, so the next decision is easier to make and defend.
Introduction
A clear, sequenced plan from where you are to where you want to be
A data and AI roadmap sets out, in order, what to fix, build and invest in over the next one to three years, rather than treating every project as a standalone decision. Cybit assesses your current data maturity and business priorities to build that plan. Businesses need this before committing budget to AI or analytics, so investment follows a sequence rather than a hunch.

What the Analysts Say
Gartner predicts that 80% of data and analytics governance initiatives will fail by 2027 due to a lack of a real or manufactured crisis. Read plainly, that is a sequencing problem. Governance without a business reason behind it does not survive contact with competing priorities.

Frequently Asked Questions
It sets out, in order, what to fix, build and invest in over the next one to three years, so investment follows a sequence rather than reacting to whichever capability is currently in the headlines.
Because AI built on unreliable data foundations fails expensively. Gartner predicts 80% of data and analytics governance initiatives will fail by 2027, and says governance that does not enable prioritised business outcomes fails. Sequencing investment against those outcomes is what a roadmap provides.
Business leadership as much as IT. A roadmap built only with the technology team tends to optimise for the estate rather than the outcome.
Yes. The output is a plan you own, and it is written to be delivered by whoever is best placed to deliver it.
