1. Understand AI Capabilities & Trends

There is a very rapid pace of advancement in AI. Understanding the latest capabilities and trends of AI is the prerequisite for an effective discussion on the opportunities for your business. Here is how we can help: Join our AI Bootcamp

Products

Explore current AI capabilities through practical examples and use cases, discovering how similar businesses are enhancing their products with AI technology.

Processes

Learn about common business processes where AI has shown early success, understanding the basic concepts of agentic process automation and enhancement.

Platform

Get an overview of typical AI infrastructure components and data requirements, understanding what makes a good foundation for future AI initiatives.

Organization

Build awareness of AI as a critical future capability across leadership and teams. Create initial excitement and understanding of AI's strategic importance for long-term competitiveness and growth.

2. Map Out Opportunities

Key Opportunities arise at the intersection where AI capabilities (better) solve real business challenges. Using formats like AI Design Sprints (TM) we help to discover the AI 'Opportunity Space' relevant for your business. Dependent on your focus, we look at best-AI-practices to improve products, business processes and organisational workflows. Here is how we can help: Book our AI Opportunity Mapping

Products

Map current product portfolio to identify customer pain points and unmet needs. Match these opportunities with AI capabilities to enhance user experience, personalization, and product intelligence.

Processes

Analyze existing workflows to identify bottlenecks, manual tasks, and efficiency gaps. Match these areas with AI capabilities to improve speed, accuracy, and resource utilization.

Platform

Assess current data landscape and infrastructure readiness for AI. Map available data assets, identify quality gaps, and outline basic requirements for initial AI use cases.

Organization

Map organizational opportunities for AI adoption and identify potential capability gaps. Understand which teams could benefit most from AI and what skills might be needed for future initiatives.

3. Sharpen the Strategy

We advocate the Playing to Win strategy framework and believe it is a suitable toolset also in the context of AI. There are many strategic choices to make. We help to identify critical questions and support you in making the right decisions. See more here: AI Strategy

Products

Define vision and ambition for AI-enhanced products and services. Identify critical requirements including essential data assets, key AI competencies, and investment needs to transform your product portfolio.

Processes

Organization

Plan AI talent acquisition and development strategy. Define organizational setup and accountabilities to embrace AI, while establishing robust governance frameworks for compliance and ethics.

4. Prototype, Test, Learn

Implement initial AI solutions and gather valuable insights. This phase is crucial for three key reasons: • Risk Mitigation: Early prototyping reveals technical challenges and integration issues before full-scale deployment, significantly reducing implementation risks and costs. • User Validation: Real-world testing provides invaluable feedback on user acceptance and actual business value, ensuring AI solutions truly meet stakeholder needs. • Organizational Learning: Hands-on experience with AI implementation builds internal capabilities and creates a practical foundation for broader AI adoption.

Organization

Execute first phase of AI training program. Build practical experience through hands-on implementation, and establish initial governance practices.

5. Operationalize, Commercialize

Moving from successful prototypes to production is a critical phase that determines the real business impact of AI initiatives. Effective operationalization ensures reliable, scalable, and maintainable AI solutions that deliver consistent value across the organization. This phase transforms promising AI experiments into robust, enterprise-grade solutions that drive tangible business outcomes.
