Lenovo has introduced Lenovo AI Express, a new AI infrastructure offering developed with NVIDIA to help businesses deploy production-ready artificial intelligence faster, simplify implementation, and scale AI workloads according to their needs.
The solution combines validated hardware configurations, accelerated computing, enterprise AI software, and deployment services to help organizations move from AI experimentation to production. Eligible configurations can have order-to-ship times starting at 15 business days.
According to Lenovo’s 2026 CIO Playbook, organizations scaling AI initiatives expect an average return of US$2.79 for every US$1 invested, while 93% of enterprise respondents anticipate positive returns. However, lengthy deployment timelines, integration challenges, and infrastructure readiness can delay these benefits.
Lenovo AI Express offers three configurations designed for different workloads and user requirements:
- Small: Available for shipment starting at 15 business days, featuring the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650a V4 with two NVIDIA RTX 6000 PRO Blackwell Server Edition GPUs. It supports models ranging from 7 billion to 70 billion parameters.
- Medium: Available starting at 20 business days, using the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR675 V3 with eight NVIDIA RTX 6000 PRO Blackwell Server Edition GPUs. It targets higher-throughput inference and agentic AI workloads, supporting models from 70 billion to 400 billion parameters.
- Large: Available starting at 25 business days, built on the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR680a V4 powered by NVIDIA HGX B300. It supports enterprise-scale generative AI workloads with models of up to one trillion parameters.
The configurations also support the latest CPU technologies from AMD and Intel. Businesses can add enterprise AI software, including Red Hat AI Factory with NVIDIA and NVIDIA AI Enterprise, as well as Veeam Kasten for protecting AI applications, data, models, and pipelines.
Beyond hardware, Lenovo provides services to help organizations identify AI use cases, validate return on investment, conduct proofs of concept, and optimize GPU performance and operating costs. Premier Support Plus for Servers adds proactive and predictive support capabilities to help maintain operations in mission-critical environments.
Lenovo is also expanding access through its global partner ecosystem, enabling channel partners to help businesses select and deploy validated AI infrastructure. Availability, eligibility, and ordering requirements vary by region.
By combining accelerated computing with prevalidated infrastructure and deployment support, Lenovo AI Express aims to help businesses bring AI applications into production faster while scaling capacity as demand grows.
