AI Consulting Services

Expert AI consulting from strategy to production. We help businesses adopt AI with confidence, focusing on real-world value over hype.

AI consulting helps a business work out where AI and automation will actually pay off, then delivers it. In practice that means rapid discovery of your highest-value opportunity, a working solution built and deployed in weeks, and knowledge transfer so your team can carry on - measurable ROI, not a strategy deck.

Want AI But Don't Know Where to Start?

Most businesses know AI can help but struggle with where to begin. Which processes should we automate? Which tools should we use? How do we ensure success? With 20 years delivering technology solutions, I've seen what works and what doesn't.

My approach: rapidly understand your business context through discovery with senior stakeholders, identify your highest-value automation opportunity, deliver a working solution in weeks, then either scale it with you or transfer knowledge to your team. No dependencies. No junior analysts. Just practical automation that pays for itself.

How We Work With You

We don't sell services - I deliver 3-month implementations structured as part-time engagements. Here's what's included:

Rapid Discovery & Business Context (Weeks 1-2)

I work with senior stakeholders (non-technical friendly) to understand your operations, identify bottlenecks, and pinpoint the automation opportunities with highest ROI. You get a clear roadmap prioritising quick wins that pay for themselves.

Hands-On Implementation (Weeks 3-10)

I build and deploy working solutions - not prototypes, not recommendations. This might include: CRM automation, document processing, sales qualification, support ticket routing, month-end close automation, or AI tool adoption. All delivered with measurable ROI: 60-70% typical time savings, £15-50K+ annual value.

Knowledge Transfer & Team Enablement (Weeks 10-12)

Throughout the engagement, I upskill your team so they can own and expand solutions independently. Final weeks focus on documentation, training, and ensuring clean handoff. Success means your team continues without me.
