AI Strategy and Use Case Prioritization
AI is a workforce transformation, not a software rollout. The real risk isn’t the AI tool, it’s picking the wrong use case. We start from business value, score your options on impact and ease, and build the governance that lets you scale safely.
What’s included
- Diagnose where the current process breaks down, pre-AI
- Pinpoint where AI adds real, measurable value
- Use-Case Selection & Prioritization: a scored, ranked roadmap of AI projects
- AI Governance: policy, risk oversight and controls for leadership and boards
Who it’s for
SMEs starting their first AI initiative, and boards or leadership teams that need governance before they scale.
Redesigning the roles and the work itself is a separate engagement: see Workforce Transformation.
Outcome-Driven AI and GenAI Training
Customized AI training that goes beyond theory: your teams leave able to use the tools on their own real work, not just aware of them.
What’s included
- GenAI & Prompt Engineering workshops
- AI Agents & Automation training, hands-on with n8n, Microsoft Copilot or BeX
- Advanced Claude training
How it works
In-person or virtual cohorts, tailored to your specific use cases, from working-team upskilling to leadership programmes.
Who it’s for
SMEs and leadership teams whose people need to use the tools on their own real work, not just be aware of them.
From Manual Workflow to Governed Agentic AI Workflow
We combine AI agents with deterministic steps: the agent handles judgement, the deterministic steps keep the output consistent and repeatable. We are tool and platform agnostic and starting point is a prioritized use case list.
How it works
- Interview the people doing the work
- Agree on success metrics
- Re-design, build and test the new workflow
- Prove & Govern: measured against agreed targets
A named human stays accountable and approves.
Who it’s for
SMEs with manual workflows.
Workforce Transformation: Job Redesign for the Era of AI
Put a team’s tasks on a whiteboard and the room goes quiet: how much of the week is AI execution, how little is the judgement they’re paid for. Automation doesn’t remove the seat, it moves it: where is a design decision, made deliberately, role by role.
What’s included
- Decompose the workflow into its individual tasks
- Identify pain points AI can fix
- Job redesign around AI
- Assign accountabilities
- Reskilling & redeployment planning
How it works
Role by role: new ways of working are adopted, roles redefined where needed.
Who it’s for
SMEs and leadership teams whose AI tools already work, now deciding what those jobs should look like.
What an engagement looks like
Whichever of the four you start with, the shape is the same. Nothing is built before the assessment says it is worth building.
Assess
A readiness check across people, process, data and governance, before you commit budget.
Design
One use case selected and success criteria agreed, against a scored, prioritized roadmap.
Implement
Built out from there and taken to a limited production go-live, rather than a demo.
Scale
Measured against the targets agreed at the start, and extended where it has earned it.

What SME clients say
Mario combines a business and operations track record with a deep understanding of how AI creates value. In BCG’s Digital Growth Programme, he helped turn a broad opportunity into a focused, defensible plan: sizing the market, testing our assumptions, and building a business case we could take to management.
His patience and empathy stood out. He respected our constraints and made a complex process feel manageable.
Phoebe PoonVP Product Management, AicadiumLike many SMEs, we knew digital tools could help YHF, but we weren’t sure where to start. Through the BCG Digital Growth Programme, Mario took the time to understand our business and day-to-day operations. He identified two concrete opportunities to improve our pricing, helping shape our future strategy.
His pragmatic approach, test quickly, learn from setbacks, and adapt, helped us turn ideas into action and made a significant difference to our business.
