The 2025 Global AI in Project Management Survey, the world's largest research on AI use in projects, reveals a profound shift in how organizations execute and scale transformation. Conducted by Prof. Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez and Dr. Ricardo Viana Vargas, the study gathered insights from 870 professionals across 97 countries, indicating we are entering the Transformation Age where AI-powered projects form the foundation of organizational and societal progress.
Artificial intelligence adoption is accelerating rapidly, with over 60% of professionals now using or experimenting with AI tools and more than half of organizations having integrated AI into project delivery. The impact is substantial, as early adopters report up to 25% faster project execution alongside measurable gains in forecasting, resource management, and risk reduction. With $48 trillion invested in projects globally each year, even small efficiency gains could generate trillions in value across industries.
According to Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez, the future of work is project-driven and increasingly AI-powered. He emphasizes that AI should not be used merely to cut costs but to unlock human creativity and enable more meaningful, value-creating work. Dr. Ricardo Viana Vargas adds that AI will not replace project managers but rather empower them to lead transformation and drive measurable results. The study finds that cultural resistance and lack of trust have now overtaken technical barriers as the primary challenges, demonstrating that successful transformation depends as much on people as on technology.
