AI Initiative Blueprint — StratEdge AI
StratEdge AI · LaMarre Consulting, LLC A structured 4-week engagement
Your AI initiatives deserve more than another planning meeting.
They deserve a decision.

The problem
Most AI initiatives don't fail because the technology is wrong. They fail because the priorities were never clear.

Too many ideas, no ranked list

Every department wants an AI project. Without a structured prioritization process, organizations fund everything partially and complete nothing.

Efforts that never reach production

Research across thousands of AI initiatives keeps finding the same thing: most stall before delivering value — and 73% of the failures had no agreed definition of success before work began. The gap is organizational, not technical.

No governance, no accountability

When there's no clear decision owner and no defined success metrics, AI investment gets diffused across initiatives that compete instead of compound.

Planning that produces more planning

Most strategy engagements produce a presentation. Your leadership team doesn't need more slides. They need a ranked list, assigned owners, and a 90-day plan they can actually hand off.

What you receive
Six execution-ready deliverables. Four weeks. One clear answer to "what should we do first?"
01

AI Initiative Inventory

A bounded, structured inventory of your organization's AI initiatives — gathered through facilitated intake sessions and a one-week stakeholder submission window. Typically 8–15 initiatives, captured consistently so they can actually be compared.

02

Prioritization Scoring Matrix

Your initiatives ranked across impact, feasibility, data readiness, and strategic alignment. One ranked list your team can act on.

03

Top 3 Recommendations with Rationale

A clear recommendation for your top three initiatives — with reasoning your leadership team can take directly to the board.

04

Readiness Gap Flags

Honest assessment of the data, platform, ownership, and organizational gaps that would slow or stall each top initiative. No surprises six months from now.

05

90-Day Execution Roadmap

A sequenced, milestone-driven roadmap for your #1 initiative — ready to hand to an internal team or implementation partner.

06

Leadership Readout Session

A live working session to walk your leadership team through every deliverable and leave with a shared decision ready to act on.

How it works
A four-week structure your calendar can actually absorb.
Week 1

Intake

Facilitated sessions with your leaders plus a structured one-week submission window for stakeholders. Every initiative captured the same way, and scoring criteria set to match your business priorities.

Week 2

Scoring & gap analysis

Each initiative runs through the scoring matrix. The data, governance, and readiness gaps that would block or delay the top priorities are identified and documented.

Week 3

Roadmap + mid-point check-in

The 90-day execution roadmap for your #1 initiative takes shape — milestones, owners, and decision points defined, not just recommended. A mid-point check-in confirms direction before the final week.

Week 4

Leadership readout

The full findings, recommendations, and roadmap delivered live to your leadership team. You leave with a shared decision, clear ownership, and a plan your team can execute the following week.

Your team's commitment: 2–4 leaders, roughly 3–4 hours each across the four weeks. No all-hands workshops, no full-day offsites. Everything else is on us.
Is this right for you?
This engagement works for a specific kind of organization.
This is for you if —
  • Your leadership team is under pressure to deliver AI results
  • You have more AI ideas than you can reasonably fund or staff
  • AI efforts have started but ownership and governance are unclear
  • You need a decision — not another presentation
  • You want a structured process, not a generic framework
  • You are ready to move within 30–90 days of completing the engagement
This is not for you if —
  • You are still in early exploration with no specific initiatives in mind
  • Leadership is not engaged or willing to participate in working sessions
  • You need a large firm with multiple consultants on site

Already know which initiative comes first?

The AI Initiative Launch verifies your organization is ready at a formal go/no-go gate, then leads deployment with your team on your existing platforms. From a pile of competing AI ideas to your first workflow live in production in roughly 10–12 weeks.

Questions
Common questions, straight answers.
How many people from our team need to be involved?
Typically 2–4 people from your leadership team, including whoever owns AI strategy or operations decisions. Sessions are structured to be efficient — no all-hands workshops, no full-day offsites. Most participants spend 3–4 hours total across the four weeks.
We only have one or two AI ideas — is this still useful?
Yes, but the value shifts. Instead of prioritizing across many initiatives, we focus on scoping your specific initiatives, stress-testing them against your readiness, and building the 90-day roadmap with significantly more depth. And if you've already committed to one initiative, the AI Initiative Launch may be the better starting point.
What happens after the four weeks?
You receive all six deliverables in formats your team can use immediately. The 90-day roadmap is written to be handed to an internal team or implementation partner without requiring further explanation. For organizations ready to put the #1 initiative into production, the AI Initiative Launch picks up exactly where the Blueprint leaves off.
How does pricing work?
The Blueprint is a fixed-scope engagement — you'll know exactly what you're receiving before it begins. Full engagement details, including the fee, are in the follow-up we send within 24 hours of your form submission. No hourly overages, no scope creep invoices.
