Our Methodology

From AI Chaos to Clear ROI

The "Ready, Aim, Fire" methodology is a simple, 3-phase approach that cuts through the noise, manages risk, and delivers a high-impact AI solution, often in as little as 90 days.

The "Ready, Aim, Fire" Methodology

Ready Icon: Brain and Compass

Phase 1: READY (Strategy & Assessment)

"We identify the right problem to solve."

This is the most critical step. We don't start by plugging in tools; we start with a human-centric assessment of your business. We dive deep to understand your unique challenges, assess your data readiness, and find the highest-impact, lowest-risk opportunity for your first big win.

Key Activities:

  • Executive AI Briefing: Aligning your leadership on what AI can (and can't) do.
  • Readiness Assessment: Evaluating your data, people, and processes.
  • Opportunity Mapping: Identifying the top 1-3 use cases with the best ROI.

The Deliverable: A clear "AI Opportunity Roadmap" that defines exactly where to focus our efforts.


Aim Icon: Target

Phase 2: AIM (Planning & Design)

"We design a precise, high-impact 'AI Kick-Start' solution."

Once we have our target, we take careful aim. This is where we design your bespoke "AI Kick-Start" solution. We architect the technical solution, define the exact scope, and create a fixed-price project plan. This eliminates "scope creep" and ensures there are no surprises.

Key Activities:

  • Solution Architecture: Selecting the right, "boring" tech that just works.
  • Success Definition: Setting clear KPIs to measure success.
  • Project Blueprint: A detailed, 90-day plan from start to finish.

The Deliverable: A fixed-price "AI Kick-Start Project Plan."


Fire Icon: Rocket

Phase 3: FIRE (Implementation & Impact)

"We build, deploy, and train. You get the win."

This is the execution. My team and I build and deploy your "AI Kick-Start" solution. We handle the integration, testing, and deployment. But we don't just "launch and leave." We ensure your team is fully trained and confident, transforming the new tool into a true capability.

Key Activities:

  • Agile Development: Building and testing the solution.
  • Team Training: Hands-on workshops to ensure adoption (People-First!).
  • Go-Live & Support: Launching the solution and providing 30 days of support.

The Deliverable: A Deployed AI Solution and a Trained, Capable Team.
