Vision & Alignment
Connect AI to the company’s goals and agree on what a meaningful business improvement looks like.
A business-first engagement that helps your leadership team align, identify the AI opportunities worth pursuing, and turn them into a measurable 90-day implementation plan.
Bring your business goals, operational challenges, and leadership team. Leave with shared priorities, named owners, clear measures, and a practical roadmap for the next 90 days.
AI can make individual employees faster while adding work and confusion across the company. The Platinum AI Process addresses that Alignment Gap by connecting the technology to the business direction, the people doing the work, and the decisions needed to move forward.
The Process brings strategy, people, workflows, data, technology, and execution into one conversation. Each pillar informs the others so the implementation plan fits the operating reality of your company.
Connect AI to the company’s goals and agree on what a meaningful business improvement looks like.
Understand current AI use, team capabilities, ownership, and the support people need to adopt new ways of working.
Find repetitive work, broken handoffs, slow decisions, and knowledge that depends on one person.
Rank opportunities by business value, feasibility, and readiness so the team knows what deserves attention first.
Identify the information each solution needs, where it lives, and whether it is reliable and accessible.
Decide whether to buy, automate, integrate, use an agent, or build around the actual business need.
Set clear boundaries for access, AI actions, human review, and decisions that stay with people.
Give each priority an owner, outcome, measure, and deadline — backed by a 90-day plan and regular reviews.
Dan facilitates the leadership team and relevant workflow owners through a focused working session. The agenda combines business discovery, opportunity evaluation, and decisions about the first implementation priorities.
Build a shared understanding of the goals, current workflows, and opportunities.
Turn the opportunity map into practical decisions and a plan the team can own.
Preparation matters. We agree on the objectives, participants, workflow examples, and available information before the Summit so the two days can focus on decisions. The scope and agenda are tailored to the organization.
Optional Day 3: a working session to develop selected pilot scopes, address remaining dependencies, or prepare implementation handoffs.
The Summit turns the discussion into a documented strategy and execution package. Its depth reflects the agreed scope and the information your team brings to the engagement.
A concise view of the business goals, AI priorities, intended outcomes, and the direction leadership agrees to pursue.
A documented inventory of use cases tied to workflows, recurring friction, knowledge gaps, and the teams involved.
Opportunity scores and a ranked backlog that make business value, implementation effort, readiness, and key concerns visible.
Recommended approaches for the chosen priorities, plus the information, access, and integration dependencies they need.
The first initiatives, milestones, dependencies, and practical next actions, organized around a focused execution horizon.
Working guidelines for data access, AI permissions, approval points, escalation, and decisions that remain with people.
Named business owners and clear expectations for decisions, delivery, adoption, and ongoing ownership.
Baseline measures, success criteria, and a repeatable review agenda to track progress, resolve issues, and adapt the plan.
A long list of AI ideas is easy to create. The work is deciding what deserves attention, what can be implemented with the information available, and how to know whether it is helping.
The 90-day plan gives each selected initiative a business owner, a clear outcome, a success measure, and a deadline. It also records the dependencies and review decisions needed before the work can move forward.
Sales operations lead, with technical review support.
Reduce repeated entry and make draft quotes easier to prepare and review.
Compare preparation time, corrections, and review effort with the current workflow.
Complete a scoped pilot within the agreed 90-day plan.
Approved product and pricing information, defined business rules, and human approval before a quote is issued.
The Strategy Summit is the flagship engagement. A briefing or discovery workshop can help teams prepare; implementation and advisory help carry selected priorities forward.
Build a shared understanding of AI capabilities, practical opportunities, and the questions leadership needs to answer.
Map workflows, assess readiness, identify friction, and develop an initial opportunity map and priority list.
Align the team and develop the strategy, prioritized portfolio, named owners, scorecard, and 90-day implementation plan.
Put priorities to work through tools, automation, integrations, agents, applications, training, and agreed implementation reviews.
Implementation is a separate engagement. We agree on the chosen projects, deliverables, responsibilities, acceptance criteria, and any ongoing support before that work begins.
The plan defines a review rhythm the team can own. An AI Execution Pulse brings wins, measures, initiative status, issues, decisions, and next actions into a short recurring conversation. Platinum can provide implementation support and 30/60/90-day reviews when included in the agreed scope.
Confirm owners, resolve access and information needs, define pilot scopes, and begin the first selected initiatives.
Evaluate pilot outputs, review team adoption, compare performance with the baseline, and resolve practical issues.
Review results and ownership, decide what to expand or adjust, and set the next quarter’s priorities.
Dan has worked in the building-products industry since 1988 across sales, marketing, architectural sales, operations, management, and executive leadership. He understands the workflows, handoffs, and decisions before introducing the technology.
Through Platinum Intelligence, he also develops AI applications, workflows, agents, and business systems. That connects the strategy conversation to the practical choices required to implement it.

Bring your business goals, challenges, and current ways of working. The Process helps establish the AI direction and identify which opportunities deserve attention.
The leadership team and the people who understand the workflows being considered. We agree on participants and preparation in advance so decision-makers and relevant business knowledge are available during the session.
The Summit produces the strategy and execution package. Configuration, integrations, automation, agents, custom development, and ongoing support are scoped separately around the priorities you select.
Some improvements come from clearer processes, better training, or software you already own. Where technology is useful, we evaluate whether to buy, automate, integrate, use an agent, or build.
Your team has a roadmap, named owners, success measures, and a review cadence. You can execute internally, involve existing partners, or engage Platinum for implementation and advisory support.
The framework can apply across industries. Dan’s deepest experience is in building products and related manufacturing, distribution, technical, and construction workflows. The first conversation establishes whether that experience fits your organization’s needs.
Start with the goals you want to achieve and the work that gets in the way. We’ll help identify where AI fits, what deserves attention first, and how to move toward execution.
Tell us about your organization, your business priorities, and where your team is getting stuck. That gives us a useful starting point for discussing the Platinum AI Process.
We’ll help determine whether an executive briefing, discovery workshop, Strategy Summit, or implementation engagement is the right next step for your team.
A few notes can make the first conversation much more useful.
Tell us a little about your organization, the opportunities you see, and where you could use help turning ideas into action.
