Frequently asked questions
How does AI strategy consulting for SMEs work?
We start from a full review of your processes, identify the highest-impact opportunities and build a roadmap with priorities, timing and budget. Then we support implementation with weekly or monthly sessions, for 3–12 months.
How long does a consulting project last?
From 3 to 12 months depending on the goals. The assessment takes 2–3 weeks, strategy and roadmap 1–2 weeks; implementation support follows, with verifiable milestones.
What results can I expect?
They depend on the sector and the processes involved: that is why we define measurable KPIs before the start instead of promising averages. The commitment we put in writing is the 150% ROI guarantee within 12 months.
Does consulting include technical support?
Yes: vendor selection, implementation supervision, team training, change management and monitoring. We stay at your side until the results are in.
Do we need technical experience to benefit?
No. The consulting is designed for CEOs and management without a technical background: we translate AI into business terms, costs and measurable results.
