Xeretec, in partnership with HP, brings together deep expertise in enterprise IT transformation with cutting-edge AI-ready hardware, endpoint security, and managed services. Together, we ensure your AI deployment is not only functional today, but also architected for the next generation of AI capabilities.
Step 1 – Assess your starting position with a free PC audit
A successful AI strategy begins with a comprehensive understanding of your current IT estate. This means examining the age of your device fleet, identifying legacy endpoints that are approaching end-of-life, and planning their replacement before the Windows 10 end-of-support deadline in October. It also involves evaluating whether your existing endpoints are AI compute ready. Devices without NPUs (Neural Processing Units) will struggle to handle AI workloads efficiently, which can result in CPU and GPU bottlenecks that compromise performance. In addition, a thorough review of your application landscape is essential to ensure your core business applications are compatible with AI-optimised versions or updates.
HP’s Intel® Core™ Ultra powered AI PCs are built with integrated NPUs dedicated to accelerating AI workloads. This means AI-enhanced applications such as Microsoft Copilot, Adobe Creative Suite, and Zoom’s AI Companion can run without slowing down other processes.
Xeretec’s PC assessment process goes deeper by analysing device telemetry, benchmarking performance, and conducting network readiness checks to confirm your infrastructure can handle higher data throughput and simultaneous AI processes.
Step 2 – Establish enterprise-grade support and governance
AI adoption is not simply a matter of acquiring new hardware or software. It requires an operational framework that can support the technology at scale and maintain compliance with internal and external regulations. Xeretec delivers end-to-end lifecycle management, from provisioning and deployment to configuration and updates, using both remote and on-site resources, including zero-touch deployment for new devices. Security is reinforced with HP Wolf Security, which uses AI-driven malware detection, isolation, and rollback, integrated directly into your existing SIEM platform.
Governance is equally important. We work with your leadership team to define policy-based AI usage guidelines, create role-based access controls, and implement audit trails that prevent the rise of shadow IT and ensure data protection obligations are met. This structured approach allows your IT department to focus on strategic objectives while Xeretec manages the operational demands.
Step 3 – Align AI capabilities with user personas and workflows
Not every user needs the same AI tools or computing power. A marketing executive might require AI assistance for content generation and analysis, while a data analyst needs tools for statistical modelling and visualisation. Xeretec begins by mapping job roles and responsibilities against specific AI capabilities, ensuring each user is equipped with tools that directly enhance their productivity.
We also assess the AI tools already in use across the organisation, including any unapproved or shadow IT applications, to identify both opportunities and risks. HP’s AI PCs enhance these deployments by offering hardware-based acceleration for on-device AI inferencing, which reduces reliance on cloud services, improves latency, and provides greater control over sensitive data.
Step 4 – Address AI skills gaps with targeted enablement
AI technology is only effective when users know how to apply it. Many knowledge workers still lack confidence in identifying the right moments to use AI, which limits adoption and ROI. Xeretec addresses this by delivering role-specific AI training that blends technical instruction with compliance best practices. Hands-on workshops allow users to work directly with AI-powered enterprise tools such as Microsoft Copilot and Adobe Sensei, while certification programmes give IT administrators the skills they need to configure, monitor, and optimise AI deployments.
We can also help establish internal AI specialists within your teams. These are employees who receive deeper technical training and act as in-house experts, providing peer support and encouraging responsible adoption across departments.
Step 5 – Architect for high-performance AI workloads
AI workloads vary significantly. A general knowledge worker might only require lightweight inferencing for summarising emails or generating content, while a data scientist could need the computational capacity to run large-scale model training or AI-powered 3D generative design. In both cases, the architecture must be designed for optimal performance and cost-efficiency.
For everyday use, HP’s AI-ready laptops equipped with Intel® Core™ Ultra processors provide the balance of portability and on-device AI acceleration that most employees need. For more demanding workloads, HP Z by HP workstations can be configured with discrete GPUs, extended VRAM, and high-bandwidth memory to support complex modelling and simulation. Xeretec works with you to determine the right mix of endpoint, edge, and cloud resources, ensuring that bandwidth, latency, and quality-of-service considerations are factored into the network infrastructure.
Step 6 – Build for continuous AI evolution
AI technology evolves at an extraordinary pace. A solution that is considered leading-edge today may become standard within a year. Future-proofing means investing in platforms that are not only capable now but also designed to integrate upcoming AI features without costly or disruptive hardware refresh cycles.
Xeretec and HP achieve this through scalable endpoint architecture, modular device configurations, and hardware such as the HP Endpoint Security Controller, which can be updated to counter emerging cyber threats, including those from quantum computing. We also conduct regular technology reviews to identify new AI capabilities that align with your strategic goals, ensuring that your organisation maintains its competitive advantage.
The Xeretec and HP for AI readiness
HP delivers AI-optimised hardware, AI-native endpoint protection, and integration with the most widely used enterprise software platforms. Xeretec complements this with expert-led infrastructure assessments, detailed deployment strategies, and managed services tailored to your business objectives. The result is a complete AI adoption framework that covers infrastructure auditing and smart upgrade planning, enterprise-grade security and compliance, scalable architecture for all workload types, and ongoing enablement for your teams. Partnering with Xeretec and HP ensures your AI transformation is efficient, secure, and built to last.
