Case — DLL — GenAI Platform

The GenAI highway for DLL: from solution vision to enterprise production

The question

Bringing GenAI applications to production in an existing data environment.

The solution

Solution vision + implementation of a native GenAI platform.

The result

A future-proof platform that accelerates GenAI use cases into production.

Develop a vision and platform around GenAI in an existing organisational architecture.

DLL, an international asset finance organisation that operates globally and specialises in providing financial solutions for equipment and technology, wanted to deploy GenAI in its existing data architecture. Blenddata wrote a solution vision and brought the first applications to production.

The organisation was faced with the question of how to bring GenAI applications to production quickly and scalably within its own environment. Blenddata designed a strategic vision and translated it into a future-proof GenAI platform. This successfully brought the first use case to production and paved the way for new AI applications.

International impact for DLL

The first application will directly support all 16 teams in Europe, indicating the scale and value this project can bring when rolled out globally. Eric van der Linden, Head of Technology Strategy and AI at DLL “For us, this is a start for what is yet to come. On the same GenAI platform, we are going to develop a chatbot and a self-service solution in the near future.”

The team at Blenddata showed ownership. Bottlenecks were investigated on their own initiative to prevent them in the future.

assistance with credit applications

A substantial time saver for Credit Underwriters

Vincent Fokker, data architect at Blenddata, said: “The first application to go live supports the credit application process. To create a complete and reliable customer profile, Credit Underwriters at DLL go through annual reports and other documentation. The GenAI application asks a standard set of questions and summarises all financial and non-financial data automatically and consistently. As a result, Credit Underwriters need to do much less manual reading and analysis. This saves considerable time in large credit applications.”

Cost savings

Blenddata’s research in Benelux also shows the potential business value of the solution; significant cost savings occur annually. Moreover, a shorter turnaround time is expected to increase conversion and create additional new business value.

Native GenAI woven into existing architecture

Many organisations are experimenting with GenAI, but struggle with how it fits within their existing data architecture. Blenddata’s GenAI-native approach seamlessly integrates GenAI solutions into the current environment, without the need to build completely new infrastructures.

Solid vision with immediate impact

Within just three months, Blenddata developed a complete solution vision for GenAI at DLL. The board was immediately enthusiastic, after which a team of data engineers brought the first use case to production. This set the stage for tangible impact.

Ready for more GenAI applications

Blenddata built a platform designed for scalability. It becomes easy to hook up new GenAI applications and bring them to production. The value is in a foundation that can facilitate multiple use cases. Especially in the longer term.

With better data quality and governance, your AI models are just going to perform better. That's super important if you want to become an AI-driven organisation.

Knowledge transfer to data teams

“Our teams can further develop themselves on the platform.”

Eric van der Linden, DLL: “Several data and IT teams in our organisation have learned from Blenddata. Vincent, Iko and Iris took our entire use case team through the development process. Part of the technical implementation was to make our teams familiar with the platform so that we can come up with new solutions ourselves.”

Focus on data governance

Blenddata is going strong on data governance to prepare organisations for reliable and scalable AI applications.

With data quality checks, DataOps and sharp development lifecycles, among others, we help clients like DLL manage their data consistently, securely and flawlessly. Data quality is crucial: the better the foundation, the better GenAI performs. This is how we help build organisations that can work in a truly AI-driven way.
