How it runs

Three sessions. Two weeks. One clear verdict.

Remote by default — large accounts can do an on-site day. We synthesize between sessions, so your team only shows up for the conversations that matter.

SESSION 01Week 1

Kickoff & Interviews

90–120 minutesAlign on goals and capture current state — top pain areas, current Copilot/AI usage, and constraints.
Who's in the roomYour exec sponsor, plus 1–2 operators from the highest-friction workflow.
SESSION 023–5 days later

Use-Case Workshop

Half-day, facilitatedScore candidate use cases on value, feasibility, and speed — and pick the Phase 1 use case to lead with.
One feasibility checkIT/security or your data lead joins for a single session to ground what's real.
SESSION 03Week 2

Executive Readout

60–90 minutesWe walk leadership through the verdict, the 90-day roadmap, and the recommended next step.
A written packYou leave with the deck and summary — decision-ready, nothing left to chase down.
What you get

Six deliverables. Nothing you won't use.

Every output is a decision input. Not theater. You leave with the verdict, the readiness picture, and the plan.

01 · CURRENT STATE
Current-State Brief
Where you are today: top pain areas, current Copilot/AI usage, and the compliance constraints implementation has to respect.
02 · BACKLOG
Prioritized Use-Case Backlog
Every candidate opportunity scored on value, feasibility, and speed to impact — with one Phase 1 use case chosen to lead.
03 · GOVERNANCE
Governance & Operating Model
A draft model for how AI gets owned, reviewed, and run safely once it's in production — built for leadership that wants structure.
04 · ROADMAP
90-Day Roadmap
A practical plan to move on the use case: the right people, the right sequence, and a realistic timeline.
05 · READOUT
Exec Readout Deck + Summary
An executive readout deck plus a written summary — the verdict and the plan, ready to share with your leadership.
06 · OPTIONAL SOW
Phase 1 SOW Outline
Optional: a Phase 1 build outline with pricing bands, so the path from decision to build is already scoped.
The partnership

Intelligence meets infrastructure.

Two specialist teams, one engagement — so strategy and build actually meet. The people who scope the work are the people you'll work with.

AI Strategy & Workflow Design
