Adactin has announced its inclusion in the federal government’s AI directory, a move that opens up opportunities for participation in government-led AI initiatives and programs. This directory is designed to assist small and medium-sized businesses, government entities, and various industries in connecting with AI service providers to meet their technological needs.
Srinivas Gutta, technical practice director at Adactin, stated that this listing significantly boosts the company’s trust and credibility within the public sector. “It increases awareness of our capabilities across the public sector and helps position us as a trusted partner,” Gutta remarked.
Adactin specializes in cloud, AI, and software engineering services, leveraging its extensive domain knowledge to enable AI solutions in complex regulatory environments. Gutta emphasized the firm’s commitment to developing local talent, ensuring that they can deliver AI and cloud services while adhering to Australia’s regulatory, security, and compliance standards.
According to an industry report involving the Australian Information Industry Association (AIIA) and the Business Council of Australia, AI could potentially contribute an estimated $142 billion annually to the Australian economy by 2030. However, realizing this economic potential hinges on widespread adoption of AI technologies, investment in domestic capabilities, and positioning the industry as a regional hub.
Gutta noted that many organizations are identifying areas where AI can drive efficiency and improve services but are also confronting the limitations of their existing systems. “We’re seeing organizations at varying levels of maturity across governance, security, and skills,” he explained.
Common challenges include the need for evolving AI governance models focused on accountability and traceability, as well as strengthening security frameworks to support AI at scale. Gutta pointed out that issues concerning data quality and governance, alongside the rapid pace of AI evolution, are hindering technology adoption.
“Strengthening data foundations and security controls will be critical to moving from identified use cases to confident, scalable AI deployments,” he told CRN Australia. He also mentioned the rising demand for practical experience in AI, data, and cybersecurity, with many organizations actively addressing these needs as part of their broader AI strategies.
Many firms continue to grapple with the development of a clear AI adoption strategy, a situation that exacerbates existing skills gaps within their teams. “Addressing strategy, capability, and data readiness together is essential to accelerating meaningful AI adoption,” Gutta emphasized.
Looking ahead, Gutta anticipates that agentic AI will make significant strides in local organizations over the next year, with the potential to handle more complex, multi-step tasks across various systems and applications. This advancement could lead to the emergence of ‘virtual co-workers’ and a generational shift in workplace productivity.
