How to Scale a #GenAI Consulting Business, with Mohamad Ali of IBM Most of my professional career has been working in high touch services businesses. It was certainly the case at IDC, where I became fascinated with how to scale service models. My first startup was a CIO consultancy called ITCentrix. Our vision was to accelerate business performance through better technology decision-making. To do this we built software to make our high-value consultants and partners more effective; and allow them to better serve customers. That software encapsulated a proprietary methodology to measure the business value of technology initiatives. It tapped a benchmarking database we built called ValueBase, which quantified best practices in applying technology to drive business performance. And it set a foundation for repeatability. We amassed a high quality CIO customer base with clients like Pfizer, MassMutual, Fidelity Investments, The Timken Company, AIG, Vivendi, Labcorp, NAV CANADA, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Regence BlueShield the International Monetary Fund, Cisco and many more. And we had some great go to market consulting partners like Unisys, Ajilon Finance Solutions, Charles River Consulting and Hitachi Consulting. The goal was to create a repeatable, software-led consulting business. The problem we ran into was our customer base was too diverse. While there were commonalities across financial services, insurance, pharma, healthcare, manufacturing, etc., the expertise we needed too apply our methods and data was too specialized; and our partner IP too diffuse to truly integrate - and so we weren't able to scale. We didn't have an AI assistant to easily customize and apply our assets to a diverse set of customer and partner needs. I recently sat down with Mohamad Ali at #IBMThink. He leads operations at IBM Consulting and he explained this thing called "IBM Consulting Advantage." It really caught my attention. Essentially it's an AI services platform that can customize access to proprietary methodologies, data, models and partner technologies using role-based generative AI assistants. The short clip below describes the platform and resonated with me given the challenges I experienced first hand in scaling a services business. Deeper into the interview, Ali goes on to discuss his vision of combining human labor and digital labor, which has great potential IMO. Given my history, current activities with my business partner John Furrier and what we're doing with theCUBEAI, I'm really curious to see how this plays out, what we can learn from initiatives like this, and how it might apply to our business.
