THE PROCESS
Hub Australia embarked on a 3-week AI Horizon Discovery. The project began with a deep dive into industry best practices and Hub’s business operations, facilitated by cross-functional workshops.
This informed the identification of high-potential AI applications tailored to Hub’s unique needs and competitive landscape. The AI initiatives were meticulously prioritised based on feasibility, complexity, investment, and potential ROI. Data readiness was then assessed, leading to recommendations to streamline processes and establish a future-proof data foundation crucial for AI success.
The Horizon Discovery culminated in a 3-year AI roadmap aligning projects with Hub’s strategic goals.
