Less spreadsheet, more strategy.
Four phases to identify where AI pays back, build the right flow, and measure the return in hours and euros.
Speak with an advisorThe problem
Most mid-market industrial firms know AI matters. Very few know where to start. The default is to chase technology for its own sake — budget burned, initiatives with no return. We do the opposite: we start from the process. Where you lose time, where data stalls, where a hybrid flow unlocks value. The technology comes after.
Four phases, before a single line of code.
No AI for AI's sake. Only flows that produce hours and euros.
Process audit
We go into the target function — procurement, customer service, finance — and measure how the work flows today. How many hours it costs, where it stalls, what data already exists, where human judgment cannot be replaced. An operating audit, not an abstract scan of your maturity.
- › Mapping of the real workflow
Not how it should run on paper. How it runs today, in the hands of the people doing it every day.
- › Timing and bottleneck measurement
Hours spent, where data stalls, where the phone replaces the system.
- › Audit of available data
What exists, what is reachable, what must be built. No solid data, no working flow.
- › Identification of human decisions
Which calls must stay with a person — and why. That line separates useful AI from dangerous AI.
Axes of the audit
From the real flow to the levers of value
Example · matrix by function
Opportunity mapping
From the audit data we build a matrix: every AI opportunity classified by economic impact and technical feasibility. Not a generic list of use cases — only the ones that fit your process, your data, your people.
- › Interviews with function leads
We talk to the people who know the process, not the people who imagine it.
- › Impact × feasibility matrix
Every opportunity classified on two axes. The quick wins surface on their own.
- › Volume sizing
How many hours, how many cases, how many errors. Without numbers, no priority holds up.
Business case with real numbers
Each priority becomes a written business case. Real costs — technology, training, internal hours — against benefits estimated on the real volumes of your process. No three-digit projections to impress the board. Conservative, verifiable numbers a controller can defend.
- › All-in costs on the table
Technology, training, advisory, internal hours. Everything visible, before the first invoice.
- › Benefits sized on your volumes
Not industry benchmarks. The hours and euros pulled from your own systems.
- › Risk and mitigation analysis
What can go wrong, how much it costs if it does, how we cut the probability.
- › Board-ready document
A report a CFO can defend in five minutes.

Quick wins
Low-risk solutions with near-certain return. Builds internal momentum.
Foundations
Team training, data ready, first hybrid flows in production.
Scaling
Extension to other functions, advanced automation, flow governance.
Optimization
Measure ROI, cut what does not work, plan year two.
Phased plan
Priorities sequenced on a timeline. What starts now, what needs preparation, what scales after the first results. A 12-month plan your leadership can read, challenge, approve — not a consultant's Gantt chart.
- › Quick wins in the first 30 days
We start where the return is near-certain. It earns internal credibility and frees budget for the next moves.
- › Dependencies and sequence
Each phase prepares the next. Skipping them costs more than running them.
- › Control KPIs per phase
Numbers that say whether we are where we should be. If not, we correct before scaling.
- › Budget and resources per quarter
Clear allocation, with room to reassign when results land earlier than expected.
The method, applied. In hours and euros.
returned to the procurement lead
per year, at the same order volume
operating cost reallocated
the salary equivalent of 1 senior FTE
order analysis time
from 6 hours to under 1 for every new request
Early estimates based on the client's real volumes and industry-average costs. Final figures will be published once the pilot concludes.
The time released — where the real value goes
The hours saved do not vanish. They become higher-value work.
Strategic negotiation
With the data already prepared, the manager focuses on the negotiation with key suppliers.
Anomaly investigation
Why are certain codes always underwater? The freed time pays for going upstream.
Forward planning
With the current order handled by the flow, the team can already work on the next one.
Client relationships
Anticipating variations, handling changes: high-value work that needs a human in the room.
Process improvement
Kaizen, lead-time reduction, inventory optimization: high-impact work that is impossible today.
Training and knowledge
Pairing with junior staff, transferring expertise, building the resilience of the team.
More solutions from our portfolio
Every solution follows the same principle: hybrid flow, data inside the company, a human who decides.
Answers for customers, without the wait
An assistant that understands context, draws from the company knowledge base, and scales without growing the team. Multi-language, multi-channel.
- Contextual, customer-facing
- Internal knowledge-base assistant
- Integrated with the channels you already use
The right answers, from the documents you already have
Your team finds in seconds what today takes hours across documents, procedures, and email. Every answer cites its source.
- Semantic search across your documents
- Cited, verifiable sources
- Data that stays inside the company
Contracts under control
Automated contract analysis: anomalies, critical clauses, deadlines. Your legal team validates instead of compiling.
- Extraction of clauses and key dates
- Anomaly flagging against your standards
- Full audit trail
Multi-agent orchestration
For processes that cross several functions: specialized agents that collaborate, an orchestrator that coordinates, a human who decides on the critical calls.
- Smart router across agents
- Shared memory and audit
- Human-in-the-loop on critical decisions
LET'S BUILD YOUR FIRST HYBRID FLOW
We start from your concrete process. In 8 weeks your team runs the flow on its own.
