How we consult

Sprints, not slideware.

A StratDash AI engagement runs as a cadence of orchestrated sprints, four to eight weeks, each ending in a decision or an artefact you keep. We do not linger on the optional. We zoom into what truly matters, decide, and move, so you get from A to B faster than conventional consulting.

The cadence

Five sprints, each with an output you keep.

Every stage of the framework is delivered as a facilitated sprint. Diagnosis and recommendation lead; building follows only where scope justifies it.

Sprint 01Orient

Inherit the governance baseline, then set AI ambition, risk appetite and decision rights, and agree how success will be measured before any use case is discussed.

You get: ambition statement · decision-rights map · guardrails
Sprint 02Assess

Diagnose AI readiness honestly, top-down and bottom-up, across six dimensions, to expose where you are ready and where AI will break before money is committed.

You get: maturity heatmap · readiness score · gap list
Sprint 03Aim

Connect AI to the outcomes leadership already tracks, and define the strategy and the target operating model that will deliver them.

You get: strategy-on-a-page · target operating model
Sprint 04Prioritise

Score candidate use cases on value, feasibility and adoption, then choose the portfolio and the single first move that proves the model with the least risk.

You get: scored portfolio · roadmap · first-move brief
Sprint 05Activate

Turn the strategy into motion. Match the first move to the right way to deliver it, set how value is proven against the Aim measures, and plan the scale path.

You get: delivery plan · value-proof plan · scale path
Where the sprint lands

We diagnose and recommend. Building is by invitation.

Our core is diagnosis and recommendation, not building AI systems for you. That is what our products are for: we build them, you use them. Every sprint ends in a decision and a path, delivered the way that fits.

How we work

Four principles.

01

Governance-first

We sequence after your baseline, so the strategy is safe to act on. Direction inside the guardrails, not uncoordinated experiments.

02

Decisions in weeks

A disciplined cadence of facilitated sprints, not a six-month study. Every sprint produces a decision or an artefact.

03

Grounded in the build

We advise from products we designed, shipped and operate. The advice carries the scar tissue of production.

04

Zoom, do not linger

We decide with the evidence in the room and move. No time spent on the optional.

What it costs

No public tiers. Scoped per engagement.

Sprints are scoped per engagement and quoted as a fixed fee, because a fixed scope is what a procurement department can actually approve, and a day rate would cap the value at hours. The value is in the thinking and the sequencing, not the time. Where you want us to build, that is quoted separately, and by invitation.
