AI Potential Analysis

Many companies are faced with the question of which areas actually benefit from the use of artificial intelligence. There are often plenty of ideas, but without a systematic assessment, priorities remain unclear and resources are used inefficiently. The AI potential analysis creates clarity here. It identifies relevant use cases along processes, products and services, evaluates their benefits and feasibility, and provides a well-founded basis for prioritizing AI initiatives.

Frequently asked questions

With the AI Readiness Quick Check, you can find out how well your organization is fundamentally prepared for the use of AI and what next steps are appropriate for your specific situation. In the AI Potential Analysis, we delve deeper into your business model and jointly identify and prioritize specific AI use cases. This creates a solid basis for strategic decisions, which can be used to plan the implementation of use cases in a targeted manner.

Yes. In addition to the comprehensive, tailor-made AI potential analysis, we also offer a compact AI potential analysis workshop format. In a focused setting, we work with your team to identify and prioritize the most relevant AI use cases—ideal if you want to achieve your first reliable results quickly with a manageable effort. You can find details on the process and outcomes on the AI potential analysis workshop page.

In a company-wide AI potential analysis, we look at all relevant company areas and processes in which AI can create real value – from marketing, sales and customer service to production, logistics and purchasing, to controlling and HR. In doing so, we involve those employees and managers who knows the processes and make decisions, so that we can identify realistic opportunities, priorities and implementation options. We define the exact scope together in advance in a meeting, so that the analysis is optimally tailored to your goals and resources. Of course, it is also possible to start with a limited scope – for example, in a single department – and gradually extend the AI potential analysis to other areas.

The specific information required depends heavily on the respective project scope and the use cases under consideration. We usually need insights into products, processes, systems and data structures. In addition, strategic objectives and aspects of corporate culture are important in order to identify suitable use cases and reliably assess their feasibility.

Yes, the AI potential analysis can be carried out independently of ongoing projects. Existing initiatives are of course taken into account in order to identify possible synergies and avoid duplication of effort.
