Deloitte unveils Global AI Simulation Centre of Excellence in Bangalore

Deloitte announced a significant scaling of its Global AI Simulation Centre of Excellence (CoE). This CoE is a part of its global investment of USD 3 billion in GenAI through FY30.

Launched first in Bengaluru, India to serve Deloitte’s global network, the Simulation CoE aims to accelerate clients’ decision-making processes, mitigate potential risks, and maximise their return on investment (ROI). Using real-time insights, the CoE seeks to develop advanced visualisations, simulations and scenario modeling, digital twins and multi-agent systems.

The Simulation CoE is newly integrated into existing Deloitte Experience Centres to offer immersive experiences to clients, enabling a more nuanced understanding of multiple scenarios while supporting the formulation of precise, clear and accelerated strategic plans. The CoE augments Deloitte’s Global GenAI Market Incubator with its deep experience in advanced simulation, introducing a novel and dynamic approach to advising clients.

The CoE focuses on four simulations designed to help executives accelerate and improve their decision-making procedures:

• Physical, which simulates the physical world to unlock value from AI-driven automation, AI and robotics training and infrastructure optimisation.

For example, Deloitte has used such simulations for warehouse automation, logistics design, infrastructure optimisation and supply chains across sectors leading to risk-mitigated testing and optimised cost for scaling.

• Process, which uses AI and agentic modeling to streamline processes - including enterprise - to automate decision-making, optimise systematic interactions and stress-test business resilience across a range of industries.

For example, Deloitte has applied these capabilities to long-range and medium-range demand forecasting with proprietary solutions such as Converge, enabling informed supply chains and sales and marketing decisions in the consumer sector.

• People, which models demographic trends, human–machine interaction and workforce requirements, focusing on increasing productivity and creating a dynamic workforce through the use of GenAI.

Simulations include workforce planning and delivery transformation as clients across sectors re-imagine their business in a GenAI-enabled world.

• Strategic options, which models the optimal ROI associated with different strategic options.

For example, Deloitte’s Quartz Atlas AI solution applies molecular optimisation for new drug discovery in life sciences.
