Where the market already is

What forward-looking GCCs are already doing

The centres setting the pace have moved from delivering work to owning outcomes, and AI is where that shift shows first. Across the enterprises that run GCCs, it has already moved from pilot to production. These numbers show how far.

27%
in production

of centres run AI agents in production today, not as pilots but as live operations.

31%
planning/run

plan to run and execute AI right now, moving from proof-of-concept to sandboxed production.

55%
the market

of 2024 digital service deals were AI-led, reshaping how the service itself is bought and delivered.

The centres pulling ahead have stopped debating whether to adopt AI. They are deciding what to run with it.

About Systems Plus

The perspective this assessment is built on

Systems Plus has spent close to four decades inside the outsourcing model, through every shift in how global work gets built, run, and valued.

Over the past decade that experience has concentrated into a dedicated GCC practice, standing up centres that begin lean, prove their worth early, and grow into owners of real outcomes.

That vantage point is what this assessment draws on. Its questions, its benchmarks, and its maturity model reflect what we have watched separate the centres that pull ahead from the ones that stall.
