About Guillaume

80% of AI projects fail. Almost never for technical reasons, almost always because we launch a use case before studying the conditions for its success.

Ergane is a strategic consulting firm in artificial intelligence serving the executive committees of mid-sized and large companies. My job: instruct before investing, not the other way around.

Specifically, I help leaders answer three questions. Which AI use cases are truly worth funding? In what order should they be implemented? For what expected return?

The method: the VSM-AI (Value Stream Mapping augmented by AI) diagnosis. A reading of the value stream and a scorecard that rates each use case on three axes: economic value, technical feasibility, and team adoption. Six dimensions examined simultaneously: strategy, finance, organization, human resources, data, compliance (AI Act, GDPR).

The deliverable is not a list of POCs. It's a decision: what to fund, what to defer, what to close. In 4 to 6 weeks, you get a portfolio of 5 to 10 prioritized use cases and a roadmap for 6, 12, and 18 months, presented to the executive committee.

Benchmarks:
70+ companies supported since 2021, in industry, finance, retail, healthcare, and energy.
References: Airbus, Safran, Thales, Louis Vuitton, Leclerc, CEA.
AI Ambassador for the national program Osez l'IA, Ministry of Economy.

Three ways to work together:
01 · Strategic consulting. VSM-AI diagnosis and roadmap for the executive committee.
02 · Deployment and support. Implementation of priority use cases, on short missions or part-time.
03 · Acculturation and training. Workshops for executives and teams, industry conferences.
