Find out where to start or what it takes to take full advantage of AI in your organisation.
A. AI Foundation
Every successful AI journey begins with a solid foundation. We therefore recommend beginning with a deep dive into your business needs, data landscape, and technological readiness to ensure your AI initiatives are built on solid ground.
Strategic fit
Align AI initiatives with your core business goals to drive meaningful progress and innovation.
Business needs
Identify and prioritize key areas where AI can solve problems or seize opportunities, setting clear objectives for the impact and outcomes you want to achieve.
Organizational maturity
Assess your company's readiness to embrace AI, focusing on culture, structure, and change management to ensure a smooth integration.
Technical maturity
Evaluate and enhance your infrastructure and data capabilities. Make sure that you have the right security level, data tools and skills to implement AI successfully.
D. Development and Operational Scaling
From selecting the right use cases to implementing full-scale solutions, we help identify the best use cases, and start with a structured proof of concept. We can then guide you through developing custom models, if needed, or implementing off-the-shelf products seamlessly with your existing technology stack.
Our preferred technologies for developing and scaling AI are Microsoft Copilot Studio (for a Low-Code approach), and Azure AI Studio (for a Pro-Code approach).
Our own Private Copilot by VENZO also uses Azure AI Studio, and you may find that it is more than enough AI for most of your users.
O. Operating models
Bridge the gap between business and IT with a people focussed operating model. We help you define the right operating model, whether it’s establishing a Center of Excellence or enhancing your team’s capabilities, to ensure AI becomes a core part of how you work every day. We encourage looking at your operating model through four different areas:
- Organization and structures
- Processes and practices
- Capabilities and culture
- Roles & Responsibilities
P. Performance measurement of AI impact
By leveraging VENZO’s AI ADOPT framework, your organization can not only measure the immediate impacts of AI but also set the stage for adaptive improvements and sustained success in your digital transformation journey.
Our framework adopts a structured approach to quantifying the performance and impact of AI initiatives.
01
Target business KPIs
We focus on key performance indicators (KPIs) that matter most to your business, providing clear metrics to assess the effectiveness of AI integrations.
02
Proxy metrics and surveys/interviews
When direct measurement isn’t feasible, we employ proxy metrics alongside surveys and interviews to gather comprehensive feedback and measure indirect impacts of AI on your business operations.
03
Model monitoring
Continuous monitoring of AI models is crucial to ensure they perform as expected over time. Our monitoring includes performance metrics, identification of changes in data input patterns, and bias detection.
T. Trust and Security
Establishing trust and ensuring security is not just an operational requirement but foundational to sustainable and responsible AI integration. We see four critical areas that any AI implementation needs to look into, each playing a vital role in creating a robust framework.
Trustworthy AI
AI use and implementation should be fair, transparent, and beneficial to employees and society.
Avoiding damage
Mitigate against data inference risks, and secure AI systems against both cyberattacks and model manipulation.
Protecting systems
Prevent unauthorized access as well as the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data.
Adhere to regulations
Align with legal and regulatory standards such as the new EU AI Act.
VENZO created the AI ADOPT framework in response to our clients' need for a strategic, holistic, secure, and structured approach to the implementation and adoption of AI tools in their organisations going forward.
