FAQ

Questions from Columbus teams

Ask us something else
Does the plan include third-party AI vendors?

Yes. We include AI features in tools you buy, with the vendor oversight Ohio's insurance data law and the NAIC bulletin expect.

What does an AI strategy engagement deliver?

A prioritised list of AI use cases, a readiness assessment covering data, systems, skills and governance, and a phased roadmap with the decisions and investment each phase needs.

Do we need clean data before we start?

No. Part of the work is finding out what state your data is in and what it needs for each use case. Many useful AI projects can start with the data you already have.

Can you also build what the strategy recommends?

Yes. The same team designs and delivers agentic AI, generative AI, data platforms and applications, so the roadmap moves straight into delivery without a hand-off.
