AI Strategy & Transformation

Know where to start, and what to leave alone

We map how work actually moves through your business, then give you a short, costed list of what to fix first, including what doesn't need AI at all.

The problem

The advice available is written for businesses far larger than yours. What you need is a short list of what to do first, in your operation, at a price you can justify.

Common challenges

Does this sound familiar?

The problems this work is meant to solve.

Too much noise to judge by

New tools arrive weekly, each with a confident claim attached. Working out which would survive contact with your operation is a full-time job on its own.

No Clear Starting Point

You know AI could help somewhere, but you don't know where to begin or how to prioritise opportunities for maximum impact.

Fear of Expensive Mistakes

AI projects can be costly and risky. You've heard horror stories of failed implementations and wasted budgets.

Skills Gap

Your team doesn't have AI expertise, and you're not sure whether to hire, train, or outsource.

What we build

What you get

Fixed scope, agreed in writing before work starts.

AI Opportunity Assessment

Systematic evaluation of your operations to identify high-impact, practical AI opportunities specific to your business.

Prioritised Roadmap

A phased plan that starts with the quick wins, names what each stage should change, and says how you will know whether it did.

Business Case Development

Costs, risks and expected benefits set out plainly, with the assumptions visible, so you can put the case to a board or a bank without dressing it up.

Change Management Support

Guidance on preparing your team for AI adoption, addressing concerns, and building sustainable practices.

Where this applies

What changes

What this changes day to day

What a project like this is aiming at. We agree the measures with you at discovery, record where you are today, and check the same things again after handover.

A 6 to 12 month plan you can act on

What to do, in what order, and what each stage needs from your team.

Spending decisions you can defend

Each item carries its cost, its risk and the assumptions behind it, so a no is as well evidenced as a yes.

Aligned leadership

Get stakeholders on the same page with a shared vision for AI adoption.

Reduced implementation risk

Avoid common pitfalls through structured assessment and practical implementation planning.

FAQ

Common questions

Worth asking before you commit to anything.

Who is this built for?
10 to 200 person UK service and industrial businesses, with our deepest experience in marine and offshore engineering. The recommendations assume a real budget and a team with no AI specialists in it.
Do you implement what you recommend?
Yes. We can take projects from strategy through implementation, or hand off to your team with clear specifications. Either way, we ensure the strategy is actionable.
What if we're not ready for AI?
That's valuable to know. Our assessment will identify prerequisites and help you build foundations before investing in AI tools.
How long does strategy work take?
4 to 6 weeks, covering interviews with the people who do the work, analysis, and the roadmap itself. The date is agreed before it starts.
