Enterprise perspective
Enterprise experience.
Practical business judgment.
GranitePraxis is founded on direct consulting experience with Google, Walmart, lululemon, Loblaw, and Arc’teryx. Our founder worked with these organizations as an independent consultant. That experience informs how we understand your business, shape practical recommendations, and keep delivery focused on the decisions that matter.
The point of applied AI
AI should move
a business number.
Choose the business result first: less time spent on administration, faster responses, more capacity, or better decisions. We establish the current process and measure the change against it.
Increase capacity
Help proposal and service teams handle more work. Measure preparation time, turnaround, and quality while experts retain final review.
More work, done well
Support growth
Keep inquiries moving toward a quote and follow-up. Track response time, open opportunities, and conversion where reliable data is available.
Better decisions
Start with your business problem
Where AI can work
in your business.
Find the situation your team recognizes. Start with one process and one owner, then agree on what a useful improvement would look like.
Sales
Inquiries waiting between sales and estimating? Connect intake, quote preparation, CRM updates, and follow-up with a clear owner.
Explore sales systemsCustomer service
Employees repeating the same document search? Give them answers grounded in approved information, with sources they can check.
Explore knowledge systemsOperations
Staff copying information between systems? Connect routine steps and surface the exceptions that need a person.
Explore automationManagement
Important developments scattered across sources? Receive focused briefings on what changed and which decision it affects.
Explore intelligenceMarketing
Need a clearer view of competitors and customers? Organize sourced research around the market questions your team must answer.

Requests getting lost across forms and inboxes? For example, turn an inquiry email into a CRM record, an assigned task, and a draft response for review.

What an engagement delivers
A clear priority.
A working improvement.
You should know what you are buying and what happens next. Each engagement defines the deliverables, access needed, approval responsibilities, costs, and measures before work begins.
A decision-ready recommendation
Receive a workflow assessment, estimated business case, readiness review, and prioritized first project.
A tested workflow
Receive the agreed system connections, test results, and exception paths for a defined business process.
An assistant with a defined job
Give your team a tool for finding approved answers, preparing drafts, or routing requests, with clear review points.
A practical handover
Equip users and process owners with training, operating instructions, and a process for maintaining the work.
A review of the result
Compare performance with the baseline. Ongoing support and further improvements are scoped around what your team needs.
Services
Find the right place
to start.
Choose by the problem in front of you: an RFQ deadline, a stalled sales handoff, hard-to-find knowledge, or a team that needs a practical way to use AI.

Talk through your situationThe GranitePraxis method
From a business problem
to a measured improvement.
You receive a documented baseline, a prioritized scope, a tested solution, a trained team, and a review of the result. If data, access, or process ownership need attention first, we identify that preparation before recommending a build.
Assess
See a clear record of the process, current effort, people, systems, and constraints.
Prioritize
Receive a recommended first scope with its business rationale and success measures.
Build
Review a working solution tested against agreed requirements and exceptions.
Enable
Give users and owners the instructions and practice they need to use the system.
Measure
Compare results with the starting point and decide what to improve or expand.
Start as small as you need
Start with clarity.
Commit in stages.
Start with a complimentary conversation or bring an existing project brief. Any paid work begins only after you approve its scope, deliverables, price, and schedule.

Business judgment.
Practical delivery.
Start with one meaningful business problem. You get a defined scope, clear ownership, a practical handover, and a way to judge whether the work improved.
Business first
We map the current process and its cost before recommending a tool or build.
From recommendation to use
We define the deliverable, test the workflow, and compare its performance with the starting point.
Technology-neutral
Tool choices follow your requirements, existing systems, data constraints, and total operating cost.
Humans stay accountable
Data access, uncertain outputs, review responsibilities, and escalation are addressed during scoping.
Find your AI opportunity
Start with the work
that costs you.
Estimate the annual labour cost of a recurring workflow. This is the current cost of time spent, not projected savings or return on investment.
i A working estimate is more useful than a generic AI claim.
Estimated annual workflow cost$135,200current labour-cost estimate; savings depend on the change achieved and its operating costs
Discuss this estimateHow progress is evaluated
What we
measure.
Before implementation, agree what success means and record the starting point. After launch, compare time, turnaround, quality, adoption, and operating costs. Separate measured results from estimates so you can decide whether to expand.

Built with judgment
Useful systems need
appropriate oversight.
Before a system is used, we define its approved information, access, review points, and response when an answer or action is uncertain. The right controls depend on your environment.
Common questionsQuestions worth asking
Before you
start.
We do not know where to start. Can you help?
Yes. In the complimentary 20-minute AI Productivity Scan, we discuss one business problem, identify what needs investigation, and consider whether an audit or project makes sense. It is an initial conversation; a detailed implementation plan or savings estimate requires further assessment.
Do we need technical staff?
You do not need a dedicated AI team. We do need a process owner and, where systems are connected, someone who can approve access and coordinate with your IT provider.
Will you actually implement the solution?
Yes, when implementation is the right next step. The work can include workflow design, automation, assistants, connected systems, enablement, and measurement.
Can AI work with the software we already use?
Often, yes. We start with the business requirement and the systems already in place, then determine what integration or change is appropriate.
What does an AI Opportunity Audit deliver?
You receive an assessment of selected workflows, estimated time and labour cost, data and access readiness, and a prioritized recommendation. The $1,495 CAD scope specifies the interviews, workflow coverage, and outputs before purchase. An implementation proposal is a separate decision.
Are software and ongoing support included?
Third-party subscriptions, usage charges, maintenance, and new change requests depend on the solution. We identify these costs and define any post-launch support in the proposal so you can assess the full commitment.
Who owns the system after launch?
You receive the handover and operating documentation defined in the proposal. We agree ownership and access to custom work, third-party licences, data, and accounts before building. Your designated process owner retains business decisions and approvals; ongoing support is scoped separately.
What happens to our business data?
We review what information the workflow uses, who may access it, which providers are involved, how outputs are checked, and what happens when the system is uncertain. Your team approves the approach before implementation.
How long does an engagement take?
The scan takes 20 minutes. For an audit or implementation, timing depends on access to your people and systems, the number of workflows, data readiness, and testing requirements. We set a schedule in the proposal.
Can you train our employees?
Yes. Enablement is most useful when it is tied to the actual tools and workflows being introduced—not separated into generic AI theory.
