Give AI initiatives
an owner and a decision process.

The starting point

Which initiatives deserve
the team’s attention?

CREDE had AI activity across the business and a broad list of possible initiatives. The work needed a shared way to choose priorities, capture progress and make decisions.

The engagement connected that work with executive sponsorship and the company’s existing operating goals.

Sponsorship, tracking and project selection.

01 / Sponsorship

Make accountability explicit.

The engagement clarified executive sponsorship and expectations for taking priorities and blockers to leadership.

02 / Shared visibility

Use one operating record.

An AI Council tracker brought initiatives, experiments, wins and issues into one operating record, supported by a consistent intake process.

03 / Priorities

Narrow the list.

Ideas were reviewed against strategic goals, with a pilot evaluation process to focus the implementation shortlist.

What changed

A clearer way
to run the work.

The record describes a governance reset, shared tracking and clearer expectations for reporting progress. These are the operating foundations for deciding which initiatives should receive attention next.

By March, the team was evaluating project data and cost analysis, contract review, business-development support and knowledge sharing. These were opportunity areas under consideration, not completed systems or measured savings.

Based on the published January 2026 engagement record and the March transition report. This story describes operating progress and the opportunities being evaluated.
