A structured 2–3 week engagement that tells you exactly where AI moves the needle in your metals business — and what to build first.
Before we build anything, we map your business. You walk away with a clear plan, not a generic framework. Most clients move directly from the Assessment into implementation.
You're never obligated to. But the roadmap we build together is designed to make that decision easy.
AI STRATEGY ASSESSMENT
Everything you need to know before spending a dollar on AI implementation. In two to three weeks, we map your business and hand you a clear, prioritized roadmap your team can act on.
Not sure if the Assessment is right for you? Book a free 30-minute discovery call. We'll tell you honestly if it's the right fit.
- THE DELIVERABLES
WHAT YOU WALK AWAY WITH.
AI READINESS SCORECARD
A structured evaluation across five dimensions: commercial capability, operational efficiency, technology stack, team readiness, and data quality. A clear picture of where you are before deciding where to go.
OPPORTUNITY MAP
Your top five AI use cases ranked by ROI potential and implementation speed. Not theoretical ideas — only what makes sense for a metals business your size, type, and current state.
90-DAY ROADMAP
A sequenced action plan with clear priorities: what to build first, what tools to use, what resources you need, and what success looks like at 30, 60, and 90 days.
EXECUTIVE PRESENTATION
A clean, boardroom-ready presentation your leadership team can align around. Built to get internal buy-in — whether you work with us next or execute independently.
TOOL RECCOMENDATIONS
Specific tool and stack recommendations matched to your budget, your existing systems, and your team's capability. No generic suggestions — everything is calibrated to your context.
FULL READOUT SESSION
We walk through every finding with your team, answer questions, and help you make a confident decision on next steps. Not a slide deck handoff — a working session.
- RIGHT FIT
THIS IS RIGHT FOR YOU IF:
The Assessment works best for metals companies who are serious about moving on AI — but want clarity before committing to a larger implementation investment.
It's not a sales pitch dressed up as a consultation. It's a real working engagement that produces a real deliverable your team can act on — whether you work with us afterward or not.
You're a mill, distributor, service center, or fabricator with a commercial or operational team of five or more people.
You've been watching AI develop and know you need to move — but haven't had the right framework or the right partner to make it happen.
You're considering AI investments and want clarity before committing budget to implementation
You've tried AI tools before and they didn't stick — and you want to understand why and what to do differently.
You're doing $10M–$100M+ in revenue and you know AI should be part of your strategy but don't know where to start.
- THE PROCESS
WHAT THE 2-3 WEEKS LOOK LIKE.
WEEK 1
KICKOFF &
DISCOVERY
60-minute kickoff with key stakeholders. Async questionnaire covering systems, processes, team capability, and current pain points. We come in with metals knowledge — you don't have to explain the industry.
WEEK 1 - 2
ASSESSMENT & MAPPING
We run the AI Readiness Scorecard across all five dimensions, identify your top opportunities, and build the prioritized use case map. One or two working sessions as needed.
WEEK 2-3
ROADMAP & PRESENTATION
We build the full 90-day implementation roadmap and the executive presentation. Everything is written for your business specifically — not adapted from a template.
WEEK 3
READOUT & NEXT STEPS
Full walkthrough with your team. Questions answered. Decision on next steps made. If you move to Transformation, we're already aligned. If not, you walk away with a complete plan to execute independently.
- GET STARTED
Walk away with a plan, not a presentation.
Book a 30-minute discovery call. We'll confirm the Assessment is the right fit, answer your questions, and get you scheduled.
