How to collaboratively define an AI platform with partners and align them on technical and scientific ambitions and program structure while ensuring a final formal agreement of each partners on resources and financial involvement ?
• Consulting: Scoping at platform and program level,
• Socio-dynamics: Alignment of each partner to converge on a common solution,
• Architecture: Design of consistent AI platform architecture.
Here are the 3 main phases that we followed:
1.
Align whole partner on platform and program perimeter to clearly define all interactions,
2.
Align whole partner on AI platform structure definition and prioritize development of functionalities according to Business value and R&D state of the art,
3.
Align whole partner on program structure and governance in order to ensure regular deliveries and reorientations to continuously leverage value,
4.
Align whole partner on a first scope of project that shall deliver value at short, mid and long term.
