How to get started
You don't have to commit to a full build to begin. Most teams start with a short, fixed-scope diagnostic, then scale as the value is proven.
Find Your Starting Point
Two quick questions match you to one of the three entry tiers below - no form, no commitment. Arriving from the AI CoE Readiness Snapshot? Your stage is already pre-selected.
Three Ways to Begin
These are the three entry tiers the tier finder above chooses between. Start where the path fits — Diagnostic, Pilot, or Build & Scale — and scale as value is proven. The free AI CoE Readiness Snapshot on the overview page is orientation only; the Readiness Diagnostic is the formal fixed-scope engagement.
All durations are estimates. Actual timelines depend on organizational readiness, access to data and systems, use-case complexity, stakeholder availability, security requirements, and existing infrastructure.
Discovery across the six CoE pillars: a substantiated maturity profile, prioritized gaps, success measures, and a recommended roadmap. This engagement is the Readiness Diagnostic only — estimated 2–3 weeks — and does not include Foundation, Pilot & Prove, or Scale & Enable work.
You walk away with
- A maturity profile across the six pillars
- A prioritized gap analysis
- Success measures and a recommended roadmap
Best for
Teams exploring or planning a CoE who want an objective baseline before committing.
Establish the minimum governance, data, and technical foundation, and deliver one high-value use case through a production-ready pilot.
You walk away with
- A production-ready pilot
- A governance and data baseline
- A measured outcome to build the internal case
Best for
Teams ready to build who want to de-risk the full investment by proving the model first.
Operationalize and expand the full CoE operating model — internal ownership, adoption, and continuous improvement across the six pillars.
You walk away with
- A running Center of Excellence
- An operating model and governance framework
- An enabled internal team and adoption plan
Best for
Teams scaling AI who are committed to a durable, organization-wide capability.
Setting You Up to Succeed
A few things make every engagement go faster. We help you put any missing pieces in place.
Don't have all of these in place yet? That is exactly what the Readiness Diagnostic is for.
How an Engagement Runs
A clear, phased path — with both sides of the work spelled out at every step. The Readiness Diagnostic covers Discovery & Readiness only; Foundation and Pilot & Prove belong to the Foundation Pilot; Scale & Enable is CoE Build & Scale.
Entry tier: Readiness Diagnostic
We do
Run discovery and a six-pillar readiness baseline, identify prioritized gaps, and define success measures with a recommended roadmap.
You do
Connect us with stakeholders and provide access to context.
You get
Maturity baseline, prioritized gaps, and recommended roadmap.
Phase 1 of 4
All durations are estimates. Actual timelines depend on organizational readiness, access to data and systems, use-case complexity, stakeholder availability, security requirements, and existing infrastructure.
Every structured engagement begins with clarity. That discipline — defined scope, a measured baseline, and clear success metrics — helps teams move from isolated experiments to an operating model they can sustain.
Start with the Readiness Diagnostic
The lowest-risk first step. We give you an objective baseline and a clear recommendation, no commitment to a full build.
