Data Foundation
Report

Why your data foundation determines AI success

See what the companies scaling AI do differently in the 2026 TDWI Blueprint Report

Enterprise standards demand stability and predictability. AI introduces variance by design. So how do you make enterprise AI work?

It starts with the data foundation. The 2026 TDWI Blueprint Report, Building an AI-Ready Data Foundation, surveyed 167 data and AI professionals to map how the leaders build it.

The report reveals:

  • A unified data platform is standard among the AI leaders (66%) and rare among the rest (24%)
  • More than 40% of respondents seeing the most impact from AI say their data foundation is a major competitive differentiator
  • 62% of organizations now run AI on documents and contracts, a major shift toward unstructured data
  • The blueprint of a layered model, from data acquisition through retrieval, that you can map against your own environment

The report gives enterprise data and AI leaders a shared model for these decisions. See where your data foundation stands today.
