Data & AI Partner Questions
What's the difference between a project and a Data & AI Partner?
A project delivers a defined outcome, such as a new dashboard, Airtable system or AI automation. As your Data & AI Partner, we provide ongoing support. We look after and improve what you have, build new data and AI tools as needs arise, and act as your go-to data and AI expert.
Can you build new AI tools as part of the partnership?
Yes. Alongside support, we design and build AI-powered workflows and tools for your team, such as document extraction, email triage, AI inside Airtable or Google Sheets, and internal assistants, then keep improving them as models and your needs change.
Do we need our own data or AI team to work with you?
No. Many organisations we partner with have no in-house data or AI person at all. If you do have a team, we can add specialist skills or extra capacity alongside them.
Can you look after systems someone else built?
Yes. We start by reviewing how your existing dashboards, bases, spreadsheets, automations and AI tools work, then support and improve them from there.
Can the focus change as our needs change?
Yes. Priorities are agreed together and reviewed regularly, so the work can shift between reporting, systems, analysis and AI as your business changes.
How does a project with RK Consulting start?
Every project starts with a free, no-obligation conversation about your challenge and goals. We then send a clear, scoped proposal with deliverables and timelines before any work begins.
