AD Ports Group, a global leader in trade, logistics, and industry, is spearheading a transformative approach to workforce integration by blending human expertise with artificial intelligence (AI). The company’s recently unveiled blueprint, titled ‘Building Human-AI Teams: AD Ports Group’s Blueprint for Tomorrow’s Workforce,’ outlines a visionary strategy to create a hybrid human-AI workforce. This initiative aims to enhance efficiency, resilience, and sustainable growth across its international operations. The blueprint emphasizes the integration of AI across various organizational layers, including port operations, logistics, finance, human resources, and customer experience. Central to this transformation are agentic AI systems—autonomous digital co-workers designed to handle repetitive, data-intensive, and predictive tasks, thereby freeing human employees to focus on creativity, innovation, and strategic decision-making. Mohamed Jamal-Eddine, Group Chief Information Officer at AD Ports Group, highlights that the future workforce will be defined by synergy between humans and AI, with agentic intelligence playing a pivotal role in learning, adapting, and collaborating. The company’s AI-powered systems are already delivering tangible results, such as the Vessel Speed Optimiser, which achieves 3% fuel savings and a 98% on-time arrival rate, and the Container Balancer, which boosts container utilization by up to 90%. Additionally, the Intelligent Workforce Scheduler has reduced HR processing times by over 90%. Sultan Al Ghaithi, Group Chief Human Resources Officer, underscores the importance of upskilling initiatives to develop AI literacy and digital fluency among employees. AD Ports Group’s approach is not about replacing humans with machines but amplifying human potential by automating routine tasks and enabling higher-value contributions. This forward-looking strategy positions the company at the forefront of the next industrial evolution, demonstrating how human-AI collaboration can drive productivity, innovation, and sustainability in a rapidly changing global landscape.
