How do we approach it?

Defining the right areas for investment in AI to boost the commercial effectiveness requires an approach centred in the definition of the problems first instead of the choice of technological tools. In partnership with Sngular, we have developed an approach that focuses on:

  1. Real solutions for real problems: We conduct a comprehensive analysis to ensure the very first step is to identify the core challenges, before any solution, technical or not, is being proposed or evaluated. This ensures the future impact and success of the AI or any other implementation
  2. Pragmatic: Priority is key, as well as it is to stay within the boundaries of what is feasible to ensure effective implementation. Focus of resources in the right places where impact can be maximise is the main goal of our approach
  3. Co-creative, hence close to the business: We work collaborative with the team, both in the evaluation process as well as in the definition and prioritisation of solutions. This ensures that the we stay always honest to what matters. We will always balance a good dose of listening with challenging to get the best outcome.
  4. Beyond AI: Although our approach aims at informing the AI roadmap and journey, because it is business centric, and technology agnostic at first, it can uncover other opportunities which are equally valuable and which will require to be included in the future focus
