Demystifying AI for EOS leadership teams

AI has been on your Issues List for a quarter. Now what?

Great EOS leaders shouldn’t have to become AI experts to benefit from AI. We’re the bridge.

We turn AI talk into AI action. A fixed-scope AI Clarity Sprint for teams already committed to EOS. Two to four weeks, one to three prioritized use cases, and a 90-day plan that slots into your next quarter’s Rocks.

AI Clarity, EOS Rhythm.

Why DS312

Three things we do that nobody else does together.

Plenty of firms can talk about AI. Plenty know EOS. Very few do both, well, with the discipline an Integrator expects.

Unique 01

EOS-native, not EOS-aware.

Rocks, L10, IDS, GWC. The Sprint slots into your operating cadence so you don’t have to translate. We don’t learn EOS as we go — we built around it.

Unique 02

We turn AI talk into AI action.

AI has been on your Issues List for quarters. We end the conversation with 1–3 prioritized use cases and a 90-day plan your team owns Monday morning.

Unique 03

Fixed scope. Fixed fee. No scope games.

The price you’re quoted is the price. We’re implementation-agnostic, so the plan you get is the right one — not the one that matches our next engagement.

The Sprint

Where AI adds fuel. Without changing the rhythm.

From 30,000 feet to Monday morning. Four altitudes mapped to your EOS layers. Vision, Rocks, L10, Execution. One clear decision at each.

Turning AI Into Real Business Impact. A four-stage framework from Current State to AI Opportunity to Workflow & Tools to Business Outcome

Each stage maps to an EOS altitude. 30,000 ft for vision, 10,000 ft for rocks, 1,000 ft for your L10, ground level for execution.

What You Get

Four deliverables. No slide-deck theater.

Everything in the sprint gets printed, reviewed, and handed to an owner. No reports that sit in a drawer.

01
Map

Business Impact Map

Where AI fits across your operations. And where it doesn’t. Prioritized by impact, not novelty.

02
Focus

1–3 Prioritized Use Cases

Specific, scoped, and tied to your Rocks. Each one with a clear problem to solve and a defined objective.

03
Build

Workflow & Tool Recs

The specific workflow changes, tools, and ownership (GWC) that make each use case work in your business.

04
Run

90-Day Action Plan

Sequenced, owner-assigned, L10-ready. Your next quarter of AI work, scoped and scheduled.

How It Works

Two to four weeks. Two to three working sessions. Done.

01 30,000 ft · Vision

Discovery

Current systems, processes, and Issues-List bottlenecks. No AI jargon. Just what’s actually happening.

Opportunity

Identify 1–3 high-impact AI use cases. Prioritized. Tied to this quarter’s Rocks.

03 1,000 ft · L10

04 Ground · Execution

90-Day Plan

Sequenced, scoped, and handed off. Your leadership team leaves ready to execute Monday morning.

Engagement

Fixed scope. Fixed fee. No scope games.

You know the number before we start. We agree on outcomes, and the price doesn’t move.

Timeline

2–4 weeks

Start to 90-day plan in hand.

Format

2–3 sessions

Working sessions with your leadership team. Not a parade of meetings.

Investment

$12K–$15K

Fixed fee. Quoted before we start.

Our Guarantee

The price quoted is the price. If the work expands, that’s on us, not you.

Fit Check

Built for some teams. Deliberately not for others.

The Sprint works because scope is narrow. Here’s exactly who’s a fit. And who isn’t.

Built for you if…

  • ·You run EOS (or something close) with a leadership team of 4–10 people.
  • ·You’re an Integrator, COO, or Visionary at a company of 10–50 employees.
  • ·AI has been on your Issues List for at least a quarter.
  • ·You want clarity before spend. Not an implementation deal dressed up as strategy.
  • ·You’re willing to put 2–3 working sessions on the calendar in the next month.
×

Not built for you if…

  • ·You’re a pre-revenue startup still figuring out your product. AI isn’t the missing piece.
  • ·You’re a Fortune 500 looking for a big-consulting transformation program. Wrong scope.
  • ·You’ve already picked a specific tool and just need someone to install it.
  • ·You want a deck. Or a report. Or a thought-leadership pdf. That’s not what I do.
  • ·You’re not ready to make a decision at the end of the sprint.

About

Pete DuCharme.

Pete DuCharme

I run Data Services 312 out of Chicago. Before that I was a Chief Growth Officer. Which means I’ve sat in your seat and felt the pull of “we should be doing something with AI” without a clear next step.

My work sits where data, AI, and workflow meet execution. The AI Clarity Sprint is what I wish more Integrators had access to: structured, opinionated, fixed-scope, and built around how EOS-run teams actually make decisions.

I work with a small number of leadership teams a year, on purpose. If you’re one of them, you get my full attention for the 2–4 weeks we’re working together.

How we work

Five values. Non-negotiable.

The filter for how DS312 shows up. For clients, partners, and anyone we work with.

01

Clients first, always.

We do what’s best for the client, even when it costs us the engagement.

02

Say the hard thing.

Genuine relationships mean candor. We tell people what’s true, not what’s comfortable.

03

Progress over perfection.

Decide. Move. Iterate. A 90-day plan shipped beats a 12-month plan polished.

04

Know your craft.

Thoroughness and depth aren’t optional. We show up as the most-prepared person in the room.

05

Bring the energy.

Passion, positive attitude, and care for the work are the price of admission.

FAQ

Before the first call.

How is this different from hiring an AI consultant?

+

Most AI consultants sell you implementation. This sprint sells you the decision. Which use case to pursue, what workflow it lives in, and what to do in the next 90 days. If you already know what you want to build, you don’t need me. If you don’t, skipping this step tends to get expensive.

Why fixed-fee instead of hourly?
