The challenge The company wanted organization-wide AI capability, from first exposure through advanced agentic use cases. Our approach A phased enablement program: initial training, then real-time use-case mentoring, then agentic subject-matter support for internal AI experts and citizen developers across the enterprise. Impact Active named-user base up 380% (+194 users) and monthly token consumption up 221% from April to June, backed by forward-deployed production support and custom-built observability tools for enterprise-wide usage visibility. The challenge Durable, organization-wide AI capability takes more than a training event. As adoption grew quickly, the company recognized it needed sustained support that could keep pace as its own team's ambitions moved from basic use cases to advanced agentic ones.

Enterprise-wide usage visibility helps the program measure, monitor and expand its internal use-case portfolio.
