We promote an iterative implementation methodology
for data-driven and artificial intelligence projects.
This approach sustains innovation over time and allows
quick win identification, together with the following
benefits :
Control of the overall process (no tunnel effect)
Realization at regular frequency
Progressive learning curve
Incremental management of transformation
Team involvement and support
MVP: Minimum Viable Product
