Solutions

Four ways to move forward.

Each with a clear starting point. You know beforehand what you are getting into, and after every step you decide whether to go on. One click shows how it works.

01 · Digital change with a plan

“We have introduced a lot. But the work goes on as before.”

Who it is for
Companies with 50 to 500 employees that have introduced software and paid for training — and where the work has still hardly changed.
How it starts
The first workshop: half a day with four to eight of your people — those who decide and those who do the work.
  • the three places where things get stuck, in your people’s own words
  • what would have to change for this, and for whom
  • the first step, with a name and a date
Afterwards
If you want to go further, you get the full picture: our AI reads your existing documents and shows what you have, where things get stuck and what comes first — every statement with its source. From this come goals, measures and a plan that we follow up together with you.
What it costs
The workshop at a fixed price, and every further step as well.
What you get
  • Clarity on what comes first — and what can wait
  • Money spent where it makes a difference in your business
  • A plan that is followed up instead of ending up in a drawer
02 · Safeguarding know-how

“Only our colleague Schneider knows that. And he leaves in two years.”

Who it is for
Companies where important know-how depends on a few experienced people — who will retire in the next few years or could leave at any time.
How it starts
We calculate your knowledge risk — free of charge. Which roles are affected and what it costs if their know-how leaves without being secured.
How we go about it
  • Make it visible: our AI reads your existing documents and shows where know-how depends on single individuals.
  • Plan: the right measure for every critical role, with an owner and a date.
  • Secure: we hold the interviews and store the know-how where you already work.
What it costs
Fixed price per step. After each step you decide whether to go on.
What you get
  • New people get up to speed faster
  • Your customers do not notice the change
  • Your know-how is ready for AI
03 · Automating workflows

“Invoices and enquiries arrive by email and are typed in by hand.”

Who it is for
Companies where routine work eats up a lot of time: receipts, orders and enquiries that are read, sorted and passed on — by hand.
How it starts
Together with you we look for the one workflow where automation pays off most, and estimate how much time it costs today.
How we go about it
  • Map the workflow: who does what and when, and where it gets stuck today.
  • Automate: the AI reads, sorts and files, a person checks.
  • Put it to work: the workflow runs in everyday business, and someone on your side can maintain it.
With what
With what you already have. Where nothing is in place yet, we recommend a tool — independent of vendors.
What it costs
One workflow, ready for automation, at a fixed price. The implementation afterwards is billed by time spent.
What you get
  • Less typing, fewer errors
  • A workflow that runs — not a trial version
  • Someone in-house who can maintain it, instead of a new one-person bottleneck
04 · Leading projects

“The project is stuck, and no one in-house can lead it right now.”

Who it is for
Companies with a project that is stuck — or that no one in-house can lead right now.
How it starts
A conversation about where things stand: what is working, what is stuck and what has to be finished by when.
What I do
  • I take over the leadership for a limited time — with your people, not alongside them.
  • Clear goals, deadlines and responsibilities.
  • I stay until the result is running in your business, and then hand over.
What it costs
Billed by time spent.
What you get
  • The project gets moving again
  • Your people stay involved and carry it on afterwards
  • Someone who takes responsibility instead of only making recommendations

About me

I know the table
from every side.

Whenever digital change is on the agenda, the same four parties sit at the table. I have sat in each of the four seats — so I know what the others are thinking.

I start with what is already there — your documents and your people. And I leave again: whatever remains has to be something you can carry on in-house.

What implementation really costs

Project and programme management on the side that builds: digital solutions for industry, retail and services, from the first sketch to live operation. Since then I can judge what lies behind a quote.

How advice comes about

Every implementation started with the same question: what does the workflow need to look like so that the software makes it better? There are proven tools for that — you get the result, not the names of the methods.

How decisions are made in-house

I learned why good proposals fail: rarely because of their content, mostly because they do not survive the budget round or find no one in-house to take ownership. That is how I measure every recommendation today.

What it means to be accountable yourself

Executive management for technology and digital change, with my own budget and my own team. I did not recommend the projects, I was accountable for them — with all the resistance and the need to prove results that this brings.

Contact

Tell me where things are stuck.

A half-hour conversation is usually enough to find out whether I am the right person. If not, I will say so — and I often know someone who is.
