Developing an Implementation Strategy for GenAI in a Confectionery Company

Global Confectionery Company

The Story

The Challenge

We are a global, prominent confectionery company. We have commenced a strategic initiative to seamlessly integrate Gen AI applications into our processes to enhance operational efficiency and foster innovation. We are looking for a collaborative partner to develop a comprehensive methodology for reviewing, refining, and selecting the most suitable use cases. We would then require development of an implementation strategy for each. We would like this completed within 6 months.

Our Approach

In collaboration with the confectionery company, ADAPTOVATE implemented Gen AI use cases and developed and implemented a strategy for each.

Needs assessment through discovery sessions: Conducted 7–10 discovery sessions with senior stakeholders to assess the company's needs and pinpoint potential Gen AI application areas, offering insights into challenges and opportunities
Use case prioritization: Assessed and proposed 5 Gen AI use cases from a list of 115, ensuring alignment with the company's objectives and impactful operational outcomes
Champion identification and onboarding: Identified and onboarded champions for selected use cases, crucial for securing buy-in and aligning stakeholders
Co-design an implementation strategy: Developed an implementation plan outlining scope, duration, and timing for the 5 selected use cases, providing a roadmap for seamless integration and execution
