Give your board a defensible AI strategy — built on data, not assumptions.
Before a line of code is written, Stack Discover maps what's actually happening inside your operations — live system data and the people running them. Two to eight weeks depending on depth.
Most consultants will spend months in discovery only to hand you a strategy deck and no actionable roadmap. Stack Discover is built differently. We run targeted executive and stakeholder interviews to identify the operational challenges actually hitting your P&L, score every opportunity against a 5-point effort-vs-impact matrix, and deliver a board-ready business case with a prioritised roadmap you can act on immediately — whether you build internally or with us.
Depth matched to the complexity of your business.
Not every business needs the same level of discovery. For most organisations, targeted stakeholder interviews and process walkthroughs produce a board-ready roadmap in weeks — fast, focused, and built on what your team already knows. For large enterprises where complexity compounds and one wrong call can stall a program for a year, we go further. Live system integration and process mining quantify exactly where AI will return measurable value, grounded in your operational data. Whichever path fits your situation, the baseline we establish here powers every 30, 60, and 90-day checkpoint across Stack Build and Stack Scale.
analytics capacity redeployed from manual reporting — PE-backed healthcare group, 50 practices, $111M revenue. Surfaced through structured stakeholder discovery, once we mapped how the analytics team was actually spending their time against what was driving business decisions.
Uncovered through executive interviews and workflow analysis — the kind of opportunity hiding inside a function the board assumed was already running lean.
Two approaches. One defensible roadmap.
We recommend the right depth after an initial conversation. Most engagements blend elements of both, shaped to the complexity of your business.
Suited to most organisations. Structured stakeholder discovery produces a confident, board-ready roadmap in weeks, built on the operational expertise already inside your business.
- Executive and stakeholder interviews across every relevant function
- Process walkthroughs and workflow documentation
- Survey-based opportunity scanning across the organisation
- ROI modelling grounded in the operational data we gather
- Effort vs impact scoring on a 5-point scale, ranking the highest-impact, lowest-effort opportunities first
- Prioritised AI opportunity backlog, ranked by effort and impact
- ROI model mapping each opportunity to measurable outcomes
- Strategic recommendations with clear rationale
- Board-ready presentation and business case
Depth scales with your organisation, from targeted backlog to full strategic roadmap.
Built for large enterprises running complex, high-volume operations. Live system integration and process mining reveal exactly where time, cost, and capacity are being lost — quantified against your operational data and defensible under board and regulator review.
- Live system integration across ERP, CRM, HRIS, and operational platforms
- Process mining that traces exactly how work moves through your business
- Bottleneck and inefficiency quantification drawn from operational data
- Technology and data readiness assessment against your current stack
- Effort vs impact scoring on a 5-point scale, ranking the highest-impact, lowest-effort opportunities first
- Process maps drawn from live system data
- Quantified bottleneck and inefficiency analysis
- Prioritised AI opportunity backlog, ranked by effort and impact
- ROI projections modelled from your operational data
- Embedded process intelligence analysis delivered with Keystone
Platform scope and integration depth scaled to your environment. Proposal developed after an initial conversation.
Stack Discover is the right starting point if…
- You're the CTO or COO who needs to walk into the next board meeting with a defensible strategy, not a vendor demo
- You've had a proof of concept fail and need to understand why before funding the next one
- You're operating under regulatory scrutiny — APRA CPS 230 or equivalent — and need validated process documentation in place before automating
- You want every AI opportunity quantified, prioritised, and grounded in your operations before you commit budget
Walk in with ambition. Walk out with a roadmap.
Two to eight weeks depending on depth. You leave with a prioritised backlog tied to measurable ROI and a board-ready business case. If there's no opportunity worth building, we'll tell you that too.
Stack Discover sets the baseline that makes the 30, 60, and 90-day accountability checkpoints in Stack Build and Stack Scale enforceable. See how the framework works →
