Six weeks from kickoff to an assessed AI map for the whole company

The first agent workflow in production: reading, breaking down and structuring specification sheets for the quote

A roadmap with a business case per step, the next lever is always clear

Briefed.

The challenge

A machine builder wants to know where AI really holds: ideas are everywhere, in sales, in design, in service, but there is no prioritisation, no clear view of the company's own data, and the worry of investing in the wrong place.

The goal: an AI strategy that does not end as a slide deck, but as a plan with sequence and business case, and with a first workflow that goes into production straight away.

Built.

From analysis into operations.

We do not work through the strategy, we build it: assess the potential, pick the biggest lever, and bring it into operations as an agentic workflow right away. The roadmap grows with what works in daily practice. The project is running, module by module.

assess prioritize run live

Potential, honestly assessed.

Processes, data situation, maturity: every idea from the company is held against the same yardsticks. What holds today, what needs data work first, what is not worth it. The result is not a wish list but a map that management can stand behind.

impact feasibility

The biggest lever first.

The map becomes a sequence: per step a business case, an owner, a time window. The first step is always the one with the biggest lever, and every further one builds on what is already running.

now next then later

Agents in the quoting process.

The first productive workflow sits on the biggest lever: specification sheets and tenders are broken down by agents, requirements extracted, checked against the product kit, deviations flagged, the groundwork for sales and design structured. Decisions are made by the team.

Outlook

The roadmap is in progress: workflow by workflow, the next lever goes into operations, prioritised by what daily work needs next.

"I had plenty of ideas and no order. Now I have an order, and the first idea is running in our quotes."

Managing director · Mechanical engineering

A strategy only becomes one once the first step is running. That is why we did not hand over the map as a slide deck but started with the quoting process, where the lever was biggest.
