How we engage

Start small enough to control. Serious enough to measure.

Every engagement begins with a specific operational problem, a named owner and a clear decision about what success would mean.

01

20-minute Process Triage

A no-charge conversation to understand the process, frequency, current effort, available data and likely decision owner. The purpose is qualification, not a free workshop.

No charge · No obligation
03

Controlled Pilot

One workflow, one owner, a limited data scope and mandatory human review. Baseline and result are measured before broader rollout is considered.

Defined scope and acceptance criteria
04

Rollout or Ongoing Advisory

Extend proven improvements, integrate with existing systems or retain independent oversight as suppliers and internal teams deliver.

Project, time-and-materials or retainer

Opportunity Sprint

A decision-quality output, not a generic AI report.

The Sprint can stand alone. There is no obligation to commission the pilot from Hoodu.

Typical inputs

  • One executive sponsor
  • One process owner
  • Two or three staff who perform the work
  • Representative documents or anonymised examples
  • Access to relevant system and data owners

Sprint outputs

Current-state view

Process steps, workload, bottlenecks, dependencies and control points.

Prioritised opportunities

Value, feasibility, risk, data readiness and implementation complexity.

Pilot definition

Scope, success measures, human review, required data and delivery route.

Governance position

Appropriate-use boundaries, privacy, security and accountability.

Indicative economics

Current effort, potential capacity release and decision assumptions.

90-day roadmap

A sequenced route from assessment through pilot and operational adoption.

Commercial approach

Clear scope before commitment.

Assessments and defined pilots are normally fixed price. Open-ended advisory and implementation support can be delivered on a time-and-materials basis. Ongoing oversight or optimisation can be structured as a retainer. All fees, assumptions and deliverables are documented before work begins.

First step

Bring one recurring process to a 20-minute triage.
