Chicago runs on markets, insurance and moving physical goods: exchanges and trading firms, big insurers, manufacturers and the rail and freight hub of the country. It also has some of the strictest biometric and AI hiring rules in the US, so how AI handles people's data matters.

FAQ

Questions from Chicago teams

Ask us something else
Does the roadmap consider Illinois' AI hiring law?

Yes. Any use case that touches recruiting, promotion or discipline is flagged, so worker notice and bias checks are planned in from the start.

Can you work with our IT and operations teams together?

Yes. Workshops bring IT, operations and risk together in your morning hours, so the roadmap reflects what the plant or office can actually support.

What does an AI strategy engagement deliver?

A prioritised list of AI use cases, a readiness assessment covering data, systems, skills and governance, and a phased roadmap with the decisions and investment each phase needs.

Do we need clean data before we start?

No. Part of the work is finding out what state your data is in and what it needs for each use case. Many useful AI projects can start with the data you already have.

Can you also build what the strategy recommends?

Yes. The same team designs and delivers agentic AI, generative AI, data platforms and applications, so the roadmap moves straight into delivery without a hand-off.
