Adactin joins national register for AI service providers

Adactin has been listed on the Australian Federal Government's Department of Industry, Science & Resources AI Directory, a register designed to connect organisations with artificial intelligence providers.

The AI Directory, part of the National AI Centre, catalogues suppliers and services across Australia's AI sector. The listing is intended to help businesses, government bodies and industry groups identify potential partners for AI-related work.

Adactin is a Sydney-headquartered technology services provider specialising in cloud, AI and software engineering. The company said the listing reflects a broader shift in how organisations view AI and how it fits alongside other systems.

"We're proud to be listed on the National AI Centre's AI Directory at a time when AI is no longer a standalone discipline, but the connective tissue linking cloud, networks, and physical systems," said Navneesh Garg, Chief Executive Officer, Adactin.

"As we move through 2026, organisations will be rewarded for treating AI not simply as a technology to deploy, but as a strategic business enabler," Garg added.

Market context

The listing comes as policymakers and industry groups continue to estimate the potential economic impact of AI adoption in Australia. The Australia's AI Opportunities report, released in November 2025, suggested AI could deliver economic value of AUD $142 billion a year by 2030.

It also estimated annual gains from AI adoption could reach AUD $112 billion by that time.

AI tools have also become more visible in consumer and workplace settings in recent years. Generative AI services launched in 2022 moved quickly into day-to-day use across a range of applications. Many large software vendors now bundle AI features into common productivity products and enterprise systems.

Agentic systems

Adactin also pointed to the rise of "agentic AI"-software agents designed to plan, reason and carry out multi-step tasks across systems and applications. In practice, these tools can run workflows that previously required a sequence of human actions across multiple applications.

Proponents argue agentic AI could reshape knowledge work, particularly in back-office functions and operational roles. The approach also raises questions about governance, auditability and how responsibility is shared between staff and automated systems, especially in regulated environments.

Adactin's Technical Practise Director, Srinivas Gutta, said embedded AI features are becoming a competitive factor as organisations assess the next wave of workplace software and workflow design.

"Organisations that are not actively looking for ways to augment productivity by using everyday tools and enterprise software featuring embedded AI may risk falling behind faster-moving competitors," said Gutta.

Company profile

Established in 2011, Adactin is headquartered in Sydney and employs more than 300 people. The company works with public sector agencies and commercial enterprises across the Asia-Pacific region.

Its service areas include cloud platforms, AI-related work and software engineering. It also operates in quality assurance, spanning testing and delivery processes, and said it has experience across the Microsoft and AWS ecosystems.

In recent years, Adactin has appeared in growth-focused rankings including the Financial Times High-Growth Companies Asia-Pacific list and the Deloitte Technology Fast 50.

Government-backed directories and supplier catalogues have become a common feature of the procurement landscape, particularly as public agencies and smaller organisations look to assess vendors and reduce search costs. For AI services, directories can also help map the domestic supplier base as governments seek to build local expertise and strengthen industry connections.

Adactin said it expects organisations to increasingly treat AI as part of a broader technology stack, with greater emphasis on integrating it across cloud services, networks and operational systems.
