The Challenge Isn’t Building AI. It’s Scaling It.
Most organisations are experimenting with AI.
A Copilot pilot, a chatbot, an automation project, or an AI proof of concept.
The challenge comes when organisations want to move from individual experiments to enterprise-scale AI.
Scaling AI requires:
- Governance
- Security
- Trusted knowledge
- Data foundations
- Standards
- Operational models
- AI lifecycle management
Create the knowledge foundation for enterprise AI. Foundry IQ helps organisations connect enterprise knowledge to AI Agents, enabling more contextual, relevant and governed AI experiences.
At CPS, we help organisations create governed, scalable AI ecosystems that move beyond experimentation.
Why Foundry IQ?
- Connect Enterprise Knowledge: Bring relevant organisational knowledge into AI experiences.
- Improve AI Context: Give agents better information to work from.
- Reduce AI Sprawl: Create a more structured approach to enterprise AI.
- Support Governance: Build AI environments around security, identity and organisational controls.
- Scale AI Innovation: Move from isolated projects towards connected AI solutions.
The Hidden Challenge Inside Modern Work
- AI Sprawl: Multiple teams develop disconnected AI solutions.
- Governance Gaps: Organisations struggle to maintain consistent controls.
- Security Concerns: Enterprise AI needs to respect identity, permissions and information policies.
- Knowledge Fragmentation: AI solutions often struggle to access the right organisational information.
- Duplication Of Effort: Different teams may solve the same problems independently.
- Scaling Challenges: Successful pilots can be difficult to turn into enterprise-wide capabilities.
From AI Experimentation To Enterprise Intelligence
AI adoption often starts with isolated use cases.
The next step is creating a repeatable model for developing, governing and scaling intelligent solutions. Foundry IQ forms part of Microsoft’s intelligence architecture alongside Work IQ and Fabric IQ, with Foundry IQ focused on enterprise knowledge.
This creates a path from: Experiment → Build → Govern → Scale → Agent-First

Foundry IQ & Agentic AI
Give Agents The Context They Need To Act
Agents need more than instructions.
- They need knowledge.
- They need context.
- They need access to the right information.
Foundry IQ supports this through knowledge retrieval and context engineering, helping agents access relevant enterprise information.
An AI agent is only as good as the knowledge it can access. Is yours set up for success? Discover how intelligent, context-aware agents can connect people with the information they need to take meaningful action. Explore Copilot Agents.
Common Use Cases
- Enterprise Knowledge Agents: Help employees access organisational information through AI.
- Policy & Governance Agents: Provide answers based on trusted policies and documentation.
- Customer Knowledge: Connect agents with relevant product, service and customer information.
- Operational Intelligence: Bring together information required to support business processes.
- Multi-Agent Workflows: Enable multiple specialised agents to work together.
- AI Application Development: Create intelligent applications grounded in enterprise knowledge.
Business Outcomes
