Discover
Map agents, owners, connected applications and access to production, maintenance and business data.
DeliverableAI inventory and prioritized exposure assessment.
From assistance to action
More autonomy. Clearer accountability.
Preparing a maintenance summary has different risks from changing a production schedule. Start with a defined use case, limited access and human approval for consequential actions. Changes affecting equipment or safety require your plant’s engineering and change-control processes.
Govern
Define acceptable use, ownership and approvals. Keep people accountable for high-impact actions and review agents as they change.
DeliverableOwnership model, approval workflow and lifecycle policy.
Protect
Review excessive permissions, overshared information and stale identities. Plan recovery for critical data and configurations.
DeliverablePrioritized access-remediation and recovery plan.
Prove
Measure adoption, costs and control effectiveness against a baseline. Give operations leaders and risk teams evidence they can review.
DeliverableGovernance scorecard and executive review.
Consulting scope
From readiness to ongoing oversight
Begin with an assessment, prioritize remediation and agree on ongoing reviews as your AI estate grows. Scope, tools, review frequency and fees are agreed individually.
AI Readiness Assessment
For manufacturers introducing Copilot or other AI agents into business and plant-support workflows.
Scope to discussAgent and data-access map, risk baseline and adoption roadmap.
AI Governance Foundation
For teams needing clear owners, approval checkpoints and consistent rules before expanding AI.
Scope to discussOwnership model, acceptable-use policies and configuration baselines.
AI Security & Data Readiness
For organizations concerned about sensitive information, oversharing or excessive agent permissions.
Scope to discussData-exposure review and prioritized access-remediation recommendations.
Ongoing AI Governance
For teams planning recurring oversight as agents, permissions and workflows evolve.
Scope to discussScoped monitoring plan, change reviews and governance scorecards.
AI Value & Adoption Review
For leaders evaluating whether AI usage and license spending support operational goals.
Scope to discussAdoption and license-use review with measurable value recommendations.
AI Resilience Review
For manufacturers relying on AI-enabled workflows for business-critical processes.
Scope to discussRecovery priorities for critical data, configurations and dependent workflows.
Start the conversation
Six questions before you scale
Bring IT, OT, operations and risk leaders together. Review ownership, access, approvals, evidence, value and recovery before extending a pilot across your business.
- 01
Which AI agents are in use, and who is accountable for each one?
- 02
What sensitive information and connected systems can each agent reach?
- 03
Which actions can it take, and who approves high-impact changes?
- 04
What records demonstrate how AI decisions and changes are governed?
- 05
What does AI cost, and how will we measure its operational value?
- 06
How will we recover the data and configurations these workflows depend on?
Start with one workflow.
