Most initiatives stall because organisations skip the hard work that makes AI stick. This is how we do the hard work for you.
Lumo's method runs in six steps, from a readiness baseline to value proven in the P&L. Every step has named outputs (an opportunity scan and readiness score at review, a value-by-effort matrix at impact, a sequenced roadmap at plan), so progress is visible to the board at each stage.
If there is a fit, we propose a focused first review with a clear scope, timeline and fixed price. If there isn't, we say so.
A named sponsor, a finance contact, the data request, the interview list and secure access to systems, so the review spends its time on the business rather than on logistics.
Leadership and frontline interviews, a look at the P&L, headcount, processes and systems, and readiness assessed across data, technology, skills, governance and culture.
Every use case sized by the value it can create and ranked against the effort and risk of delivering it. The first few are selected for a business case.
Outcomes, owners, workflow changes, platform needs, controls, measures and a business case for each use case in the first wave.
The review ends with a decision, not a report: leadership agrees the value the first wave is meant to deliver and whether to go. Reviews usually run four to six weeks.
Tools, agents and workflows built where they will run, roles and processes redesigned around them, and adoption supported until the new way of working holds. Skills transfer to your team as we go.
Results tracked against the baseline set at review, reported in cost, time, quality or revenue. The next opportunities are reprioritised on that evidence.
Six steps, with named outputs at each. The Lumo method in full.
Establish the baseline: where value hides and how ready you are to capture it.
Size the prize: every use case sorted by value and feasibility.
Chart the path from copilot to autopilot, sequenced for early wins.
Build, deploy, embed: change lands with the people who use it.
Prove the value in the P&L, not the demo.
Compound every win: retrain, refine, reprioritise.
Why most AI spend has not reached the P&L yet, and what the organisations seeing a return do differently.

read the hubWe start from the number a use case is meant to move, never from a product someone wants to deploy.
Every use case has a named business owner, a baseline and a target before anything is built.
A tool nobody uses is a cost. Role design, training and adoption are planned alongside the technology, not after it.
What we build runs on your systems, under your controls, and your team knows how to run it when we leave.
Governance is part of the design from the first wave. A sign-off gate bolted on at the end just gets worked around.
We are a small, senior team. The partners you meet at the start are the people accountable for the result.
Usually four to six weeks, from mobilisation to a board playback. The timeline is fixed in the proposal before the review starts.
A sponsor from the leadership team, a finance contact who can help size value against the P&L, access to the people whose work is in scope, and access to the relevant data and systems.
If the board agrees to start, we move straight into the first wave: building, embedding and measuring the use cases in the plan. Enablement is linked to the outcomes agreed at playback.
Yes. Where a plan exists we test its value assumptions against what we have seen elsewhere, then move to delivery rather than writing another strategy.
