Outcomes

  1. Firm-wide adoption of approved AI tools with significant day-to-day usage growth (client-reported).

  2. Reusable prompt & use-case library embedded in delivery processes.

  3. Operational guardrails (confidentiality, validation, accountability) to protect client trust.

  4. Leadership clarity on near-term priorities and where to invest next.
