How do you scale AI in a complex, data-rich environment while maintaining control, trust, and alignment with the business?
At Vanderlande, the path to being AI-ready revolves around building reliable data foundations, ensuring model governance and reproducibility, and directly linking AI innovation to customer value.

On December 16, as part of Flevum’s festive year-end closing, two senior leaders from Vanderlande will share their journey. Robert Bijl, Head Architect Technology, builds the robust IT and data platforms that enable AI at scale. Fokke van der Kamp, Technology Director Decision Intelligence, focuses on operationalizing AI — addressing challenges such as manageability, validation, monitoring, and the interaction between humans and AI to make AI solutions production-ready.

Together, they will open their “AI-readiness playbook” and provide a behind-the-scenes look at how Vanderlande is transforming its data and IT landscape to innovate faster, deliver customer-focused solutions, and convert AI capabilities into measurable business impact.

• Building reliable AI in complex ecosystems
• Managing data quality and governance at scale
• Aligning data, IT, and business teams for successful AI adoption
• Demonstrating tangible value from AI investments
