Prove it for real · Weeks, not months · Custom-scoped
Once a specific opportunity is well understood, we test it for real: one bounded workflow, an agreed baseline, clear success criteria set before we start. At the end, a straight answer, stop, iterate, expand, or move to full implementation.
One workflow. Not "AI across the business." The bounds are agreed before anything starts, and they don't creep.
An agreed baseline, how long it takes today, what it costs today, what the error rate is today. Otherwise the result is an opinion.
Success criteria are set before we start, not negotiated after. Everyone knows what "worked" means before a dollar moves.
At the end: stop, iterate, expand, or implement. If the honest answer is "stop," you get it, with the evidence.
Custom-scoped based on the opportunity being tested, following a Scan, Review, or Assessment. Not every conversation leads here, only the ones where it's actually warranted.
Turnaround measured before and after. Result at one excavation company: days to roughly 90 minutes, quality intact, no new headcount.
Engineers measured at 80% documentation / 20% engineering. After: 30-40% less documentation time, audit trail intact, ratio near 50/50.
A pilot is one bounded workflow, running for real, against a baseline we measured before touching anything. Not a demo, not a proof-of-concept video, your real work, your real documents, your real team using it in the flow of a normal week.
The structure matters more than the technology. Bounds are agreed in writing before anything starts: what is in scope, what is explicitly out. The baseline gets measured: how long this takes today, what it costs today, how often it goes wrong today. And the success criteria are written down before a dollar moves, so nobody negotiates the definition of "worked" after the fact.
At the end you get a straight answer with evidence behind it: stop, iterate, expand, or implement. Stop is a successful pilot, it means you learned the truth for the price of a pilot instead of the price of a rollout.
Common questions
Typically two to six weeks depending on the workflow's natural cycle. A proposal workflow can be measured in days; something tied to monthly reporting needs a full cycle. The timeline is part of the scope agreed up front.
Custom-scoped against the opportunity being tested, sized so the pilot's cost stays small relative to the value it is testing. You approve the number before anything starts.
I build it. Your team uses it the way they would in production, that is the point. If the tool only works when I am in the room, the pilot has told us something important.
You get the evidence of why, the measured baseline, and a written recommendation. A documented no is a successful pilot, it is the cheapest way to find out.
One bounded workflow. An agreed baseline. A straight answer at the end.
