AI Priorities Review

Fund the right AI projects. Stop the wrong ones.

Twenty AI ideas. Budget for three. In about four weeks, both founders go through your operations, your data and the AI you already run, and rank every AI and automation idea by what it returns, how hard it is, whether the data is ready and how risky it is. You get today's numbers to measure against, the gaps in who controls what, and a 90-day plan with an owner for every item.

About 4 weeks from start. Led by Rahul Nath and Arjun Murthy. Fixed fee, agreed before work starts.

What you can decide at the end

Know which AI projects to fund, which to stop, and who owns each one, before the next board meeting.

Fit

Who this is for, and who it is not for.

It is for

  • Leadership teams about to put real money into AI or automation
  • Companies with pilots everywhere and no plan, no owners and no targets
  • CEOs and COOs who suspect the real problem is the process or the data, and the AI can't fix that
  • Boards that need a plan operations, finance and technology will all back

It is not for

  • One decision on one business case or vendor proposal. Send that straight to Arjun. He'll tell you which assumption to test first, and whether checking it is worth the money
  • Comparing yourselves with competitors. We look only at your own business

Before we start

What we need from you before day one.

A leadership sponsor with authority over the teams involved.

Access to operating data and to the people who run the main systems.

Walk-throughs with each team involved.

One contact for security and data questions.

If data access runs late, we still finish the review of how the business runs, and the report shows clearly which data we couldn't check.

Who needs to agree

What each person who signs off gets from this step.

For the managing director or chief executive

About four weeks to a plan your leadership can stand behind. What to fund, what to stop, who owns what, and in what order. Sometimes the best first move is fixing the operation before adding any AI, and the readout will say so.

For the operations head

Each team leader gives one walk-through of two to three hours, plus a few follow-up questions. The sponsor gives about two hours a week.

For the IT and plant systems head

We read extracts and documents under your access rules. Data is tested for real, and anything we couldn't check is clearly marked.

For the CFO

Every idea is valued from your own cost and revenue figures, with the assumptions in plain view. Buying nothing new is always one of the options.

For the board and risk committee

The report lists the AI already in use and where oversight is thin, mapped to a published framework if you need one.

Commercial

A fixed price for the whole review, agreed in writing before we start.

The scope names the fee, what you receive and the start window before any work begins.

Questions

What buyers ask before they write to us.

How much of our people's time does it take?

About two hours a week from the sponsor, and one walk-through of two to three hours from the owner of each function, plus a few follow-up questions.

What if it turns out we're not ready for AI?

Then you'll know what to fix first, and in what order. That's a useful answer, and far cheaper than learning it from a failed pilot.

Will you compare us with other companies?

No. We don't hold data on other companies, so we won't pretend to rank you. We measure your own numbers as they are today, and every later result is measured against that starting point.

Can the Diagnostic really be done in four weeks?

Yes. The Diagnostic is planned to run in about four weeks, and you get the start date before you sign, so you can plan the walk-throughs around it.

Can we carry out the plan without you?

Yes. It's written so you can, with an owner and a measure for every step. Nothing in it assumes you'll buy the next step from us.

What follows

Then start on the idea that pays first.

Usually that's a Workflow Automation Sprint on the workflow most ready for one, a Pilot to Production Sprint on the AI idea with the best data, or fixing the operation before any AI goes in.

Or run the plan yourselves. It's written so you can.

  • 3 weeks from start, Sprint, Remote

    Workflow Automation Sprint
