The Playbook
AI-first in 6 weeks. Not 6 months.
This is the exact operating playbook I use across my own companies. Four phases, six weeks, measurable outcomes. No multi-quarter "transformation" theater.
Audit & Prioritize
Map workflows, rank by impact, pick the 1–3 use cases with real ROI.
Interviews, process maps, tool audits. Score by effort, data readiness, and risk. You leave with a ranked strike list and execution plan.
Design
Architecture, guardrails, evaluation harness — before a single line of code.
Human-in-the-loop design, security model, success metrics, failure modes. Fast because scope is already locked from Step 1.
Pilot
Ship a working pilot with real users, real data, real KPIs.
Not a demo — a proof point. Weekly iterations, measurable outcomes. If it doesn't move a number, we kill it and pivot.
Productionize & Scale
Integrations, monitoring, training, governance — go live at scale.
Logging, alerting, cost controls, edge-case handling. Upskill the team, document playbooks, establish governance. AI-first becomes the default operating mode.
