FPT Corporation has officially introduced FPT CASAN, a five-level AI-Native Capability Framework. With this strategic move, FPT reinforces its position as a chief architect and pioneer in guiding organizations and enterprises to build clear AI maturity roadmaps, transforming fragmented experiments into core operational capabilities that create long-term competitive advantage.
The FPT CASAN methodology was developed as the global artificial intelligence wave entered a pivotal transition. While the race among standalone AI tools, such as chatbots and question-and-answer assistants, is gradually losing its initial novelty, the broader AI race is intensifying more than ever. Competitive advantage now belongs to organizations and enterprises that can turn AI into a genuine, automated, controlled operating system that delivers real value.
The market reveals a paradox: despite rapidly increasing AI investment, most enterprises fail to generate corresponding value. Only about 5% of pioneering, future-built enterprises truly capitalize on AI, achieving 1.7 times higher revenue growth and 3.6 times higher total shareholder return (TSR) than the rest. In response, FPT has introduced FPT CASAN as a strategic tool to help enterprises optimize resources and strengthen technological autonomy.
FPT CASAN is a methodology developed by FPT to assess an organization's AI maturity and transformation. It is a five-level AI capability framework in which each level accurately reflects organizational AI maturity across core dimensions, including strategy, data, processes, technology, risk governance, and people. CASAN then provides a structured roadmap that enables organizations to implement AI transformation quickly and systematically while optimizing operational efficiency.
The transformation journey is clearly divided into five levels. Level 1, Curious, involves spontaneous AI experimentation based on individual or small-group needs. Activities are fragmented and lack common standards. At Level 2, Augmented, authorized AI tools are used to improve productivity for employees and small teams, but the overall operating process remains unchanged.
At Level 3, Standard, AI is embedded into processes, while data and systems are standardized across the organization. AI becomes a controllable operational capability supported by dedicated personnel. At Level 4, Automated, AI assistants directly operate complex business workflows at scale under human authorization and close supervision. At the highest level, Level 5, Native, the enterprise redesigns its entire operating model around AI. Agents orchestrate processes, organizational knowledge is continuously digitized, and KPIs shift from automation toward revenue growth and business-model innovation.
Through the CASAN methodology, FPT helps organizations identify their current position on the AI transformation journey. FPT then develops a tailored roadmap for each organization, turning AI from a collection of isolated technology experiments into a driver of business value and gradually helping customers reach the framework's highest level.
FPT also identifies people as a critical factor and training as a central pillar of successful AI transformation under the CASAN model. Organizations need broad-based training for AI engineers, leaders, sales teams, consultants, architects, cybersecurity specialists, legal professionals, human resources personnel, and other functions. FPT will accompany customers in developing the AI-Native workforce required for this new era.
FPT CASAN therefore helps enterprises answer critical questions throughout their AI transformation: Where are they now? What must they do next? What knowledge foundations, workforce capabilities, and intellectual property should they prepare? And how can AI generate real value?
FPT is currently accelerating AI transformation across the entire Corporation, demonstrating its ability to transform itself under the CASAN model. This includes progressively automating processes, optimizing workplace productivity through the growing presence of AI agents in internal systems, and expanding employee training to ensure that staff are capable of implementing AI effectively.
The FPT CASAN methodology is a strategic asset that reinforces the Corporation's position in the AI era and creates sustainable competitive advantage in the digital age.
CASAN is a five-level AI-Native capability framework developed by FPT. It helps organizations assess their AI maturity, from individual experimentation to enterprise operations built around an AI core. Beyond serving as an AI maturity scale, CASAN provides a common language through which FPT organizations can build shared understanding, conduct consistent assessments, take coordinated action, and identify the capabilities that must be upgraded across people, data, processes, and governance.
The five CASAN levels are Level 1, Curious; Level 2, Augmented; Level 3, Standard; Level 4, Automated; and Level 5, Native.
