Executive AI Strategy

Know what to build first.
And what to skip.

The AI Opportunity Map is a fixed-scope diagnostic, from $7,500. It tells you where AI creates real advantage in your business, what your organization can actually support today, and what to do in the next ninety days — before you commit serious capital.

Fixed scope. Fixed fee. You work directly with the principal.

01 — Who This Is For

Leaders with a decision
they can't afford to guess.

This engagement exists for a specific moment: the board is asking, the experiments are multiplying, or a capital decision is on the table — and nobody in the room can say with confidence what to do first.

Board pressure, no plan

The board wants an AI strategy with measurable outcomes. What exists today is a list of tools and a set of opinions. You need a defensible position, fast.

Scattered experiments

Departments are running their own pilots — unintegrated, ungoverned, unmeasured. Nobody can say what's working, what's risky, or what deserves more investment.

A big decision ahead

A significant build, a major vendor commitment, or a reorganization around AI is on the table. You want an independent read before the money moves.

02 — What The Engagement Covers

The whole system,
not just the technology.

Four bodies of work, done in order. Each one produces something you can act on — and together they produce a plan the board will accept.

01

Readiness audit across six dimensions

An honest read on where you stand across strategy, data, technology, talent, governance, and value realization. Not a maturity model for its own sake — a map of what your organization can support today and what has to change first.

02

Opportunity portfolio, scored and ranked

Every credible AI opportunity in the business, scored by value, feasibility, and risk. The output is a ranked portfolio — where the return is real, where the effort is justified, and where the risk outweighs both.

03

Operating-model and governance requirements

What the program requires to actually work: who owns it, how decisions get made, what needs human review, what the audit trail looks like, and where governance has to arrive before the technology does.

04

A 90-day action plan with owners and sequencing

The first ninety days, laid out with named owners, explicit sequencing, and defined checkpoints — so momentum starts the week the engagement ends, not a quarter later.

03 — What You Leave With

Deliverables you can
take to the board.

Everything the engagement produces is built to be used — in the boardroom, in budget conversations, and in the first ninety days of execution.

  • A prioritized opportunity portfolio — what to build, in what order, and why
  • An honest do-not-build-yet list, with the reasons on the record
  • A 90-day action plan with owners, sequencing, and checkpoints
  • An executive readout you can take directly to the board
04 — How It Runs

A decision,
not a dependency.

The engagement is designed to end. You get clarity, a plan, and the freedom to execute it with us, with your own teams, or with someone else entirely.

NO. 01

Fixed fee, from $7,500

Scope and fee are agreed before the work starts. No hourly meter, no scope drift, no surprise invoices.

NO. 02

Defined timeline

The engagement has a start, an end, and checkpoints in between. You know when the readout lands before you sign.

NO. 03

Direct principal access

You work with the principal throughout — not a junior team executing a template with a senior name on the cover.

NO. 04

Ends in a decision

The final readout is a set of decisions with evidence behind them. Whether the next step involves us is your call — the plan works either way.

Start with thirty minutes.
Not a contract.

A briefing tells you whether the Opportunity Map is the right next step — and if it isn't, you'll leave knowing what is.
