My guess is: starting in FY27, the organization aims to operate with a leaner structure. This transformation will be supported by the implementation of AI tools, a flatter organizational hierarchy, a 1:20 manager-to-team ratio, and the completion of Project Maverick. As a result, only roles that are aligned with this streamlined model are expected to carry forward into FY27. Consequently, a significant number of roles may become redundant by the end of the current financial year.

That contradiction is exactly why AI innovation inside most enterprises stalls out. The magic everyone’s expecting won’t happen (not at scale) until companies first solve the foundational issues of internal trust, data privacy, and governance. Without that, even the most powerful models are just hype with no real traction.
My guess is: starting in FY28, the organization aims to operate with a leaner structure. This transformation will be supported by the implementation of AI tools, a flatter organizational hierarchy, a 1:25 manager-to-team ratio, and the completion of Project Maverick 2.0. As a result, only roles that are aligned with this streamlined model are expected to carry forward into FY28. Consequently, a significant number of roles may become redundant by the end of the current financial year.
Your post implies that Dell IT will allow for AI to be implemented internally. Dell tells a great story around the power of AI, but actual adoption within the company is highly unlikely any time soon.
No sh-t, this is known already

Easy. They know it’s just smoke and mirrors. But they’re going to ride this hype train to squeeze every penny they can out of the stock, while staying out of the bad news cycles for massive outsourcing and offshoring because the layoffs are due to “AI”. You just have to be a tiny bit cynical to understand their game. But the scary thing is they’re probably not wrong about all the incompetent excess employees collecting a paycheck and stabbing each other in the back over macro data refinement. If they make as much money without them that’s the test.
Big AI talk across the whole industry, but when it comes to integrating with data, all the big businesses are terrified because of data privacy and security.
If we can't even get agreement on a simple, decent, chatbot for all the staff going, how on God's green earth do they think this magical AI system is going to happen?
