    Power is the New Procurement: Buying Compute + Kilowatts Together

    As AI workloads scale, the true cost of compute is no longer measured in tokens or instances; it is measured in kilowatts, carbon intensity, and latency thresholds. This shift demands a new commercial playbook where energy becomes a first-class contract term. Enterprises must now co-price compute with power, embed energy-indexed clauses, and negotiate for sustainability-linked incentives. Avasant’s AI Contract Intelligence framework helps organizations future-proof their sourcing strategies by integrating energy terms across the compute stack, from hardware to application. The result: predictable costs, assured capacity, and measurable ESG impact.

  • Aviation - Cybersecurity in Connected Aircraft: Risk Mitigation for Airlines, Passengers, Airports, and Service Providers

    Cybersecurity in Connected Aircraft: Risk Mitigation for Airlines, Passengers, Airports, and Service Providers

    The aviation industry is embracing a connected environment by digitizing its operations. This involves leveraging IoT devices, 5G networks, applied AI, advanced analytics, and SaaS-based applications to streamline maintenance, repair, and overhaul. A connected aircraft generates three types of information: aircraft control and navigation data, cabin-based in-flight entertainment data, and operations-based flight movement data. However, interconnected systems have greatly widened the risk perimeter. These demands call for applying security measures, including zero-trust security and secure by design principles, and collaborating with a technology partner who offers services such as threat detection, incident response, governance, risk and compliance, red teaming, 24x7 monitoring, and threat intelligence.

    From Optimization to Automation: Achieving Greater Business Value in the Cloud

    IT has undergone a fundamental and permanent change over the past two years. While enterprises had already embarked on their digital journey, the rapid shift to remote working during the pandemic, and the need for digital channels for customer engagement further propelled the demand for cloud services.

The two main uses of these funds are: investing in cloud infrastructure to leverage advanced technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and the Internet of Things (IoT); and migrating legacy workloads to cloud native or (creating) modernized workloads to enhance digital engagement with customers, accommodate a remote workforce and bring agility into their operations.
