When a clearer view would help

You don’t need another list of possibilities.

You need to know which ideas are worth your time, what stands in the way and what a sensible next step looks like.

We spend time with the people who know the work. Together, we look at business priorities, everyday frustrations, the information available and what your team is ready to take on.

Then we help you compare the options, challenge the assumptions and make a plan you can use.

What you leave with

A clearer decision, backed by the detail.

Where AI could help most

A prioritised view of opportunities, tied to the things your business wants to improve.

What needs to be in place

A practical assessment of your information, systems, people and safe-use arrangements.

What the investment depends on

Costs, expected benefits, assumptions and measures to test as work progresses.

What happens next

A sequenced plan with clear responsibilities and decisions, so you know what to progress and what to leave for now.

How we work together

Listen first. Explore together. Make a plan.

  1. Understand your business

    Agree the question, meet the people doing the work and look at what’s happening today.

  2. Test the possibilities

    Explore useful applications, check the practical constraints and work through the likely effort and value.

  3. Choose the next step

    Compare the opportunities and agree priorities, responsibilities and how success will be checked.

The AI Partner Diagnostic typically takes 4-8 weeks, depending on the scope and scale of the engagement and the size of your business. Access to information, stakeholder availability and the breadth of functions involved shape the work. Scope, participation and fees are agreed with you.

Before you start

A few common questions.

Do we need to sort out our data first?

No. Understanding what information you have and what needs attention is part of the work.

Do we have to start with a Diagnostic?

No. If you already have a clear priority and a sound plan, we can move straight into the help you need.

Will this work for a smaller business?

We agree the scope around your question, available information and capacity to take part. There is no revenue threshold.

Are we committing to a bigger project?

No. You decide which recommendations to act on. Any later work is agreed separately or under the partnership terms established with you.

Will you recommend a particular AI product?

We’re independent. We consider your needs, existing systems and the practical costs and constraints before recommending tools.

From decision to delivery

Choose what happens next.

The Diagnostic can stand alone or form the first stage of an ongoing relationship. You choose which recommendations to progress. Delivery, adoption and retained partnership work are scoped explicitly.

Already have a defined requirement? You can engage us directly for delivery or an ongoing partnership.

Talk to Ignite
