What types of organizations do you typically work with?

We work with leadership teams in mid-market and enterprise organizations, as well as technology-led firms operating in complex or regulated environments. Engagements typically involve AI adoption at scale rather than early experimentation.

What does ONE Department actually deliver?

Advisory support focused on AI operating models, governance, and execution. This includes defining how AI fits into workflows and decision structures, enabling LLM and data-driven systems, and supporting adoption beyond pilots.

Is this strategy work or hands-on execution?

Both. Engagements typically combine operating-model design with hands-on enablement to ensure AI initiatives are implemented, governed, and adopted—not just defined on paper.

Do you work with early-stage startups?

Occasionally, when there is a clear need to establish operating discipline early. However, most engagements involve organizations preparing to scale AI across existing systems, teams, and governance structures.

How long does it take to get started?

Initial engagements typically begin within one to two weeks following an initial discussion, depending on scope and availability.

How is this different from hiring a systems integrator or AI vendor?

This work focuses on operating models, governance, and adoption—not selling or implementing specific tools. The goal is to ensure AI initiatives fit how the organization actually operates and can scale responsibly over time.
