FWD GROUP
AWARD-WINNING INNOVATION AT FWD GROUP
“ We’ re winning awards not just because we moved to the cloud, but because of how we did it,” Sandeep explains.
The cloud transformation has enabled FWD to move quickly in other areas, particularly in implementing AI. Sandeep notes that this has given the company a significant competitive advantage.
“ We can implement generative AI much faster because we’ re not struggling with infrastructure issues,” he says.“ We’ re not having conversations about on-premise limitations or how to create proofs of concept – we’ re focused on delivering value.”
Instead, FWD focuses on driving value and operational efficiency.
While Sandeep acknowledges that cloud is more expensive than on-premise infrastructure in some ways, he emphasises the long-term benefits.
“ By eliminating data centres and obsolete licenses, we’ ve removed concerns about hardware and software upgrades,” he explains.“ We no longer worry about outdated systems requiring updates – everything is automatically maintained, which saves a tremendous amount of money over time.”
