AI Transformation

DEC helps businesses navigate AI transformation with practical, implementable strategy grounded in real technical understanding — not hype. We bridge the gap between what AI can actually do and what your business needs it to do.

Why DEC for AI

The AI consulting market is flooded with vendors selling solutions looking for problems. DEC takes the opposite approach: we start with your problem, understand it deeply, and then determine whether and how AI can solve it. Sometimes the answer is AI. Sometimes it's not. Either way, you get an honest assessment from someone who understands both the technology and business reality.

Tom DeGerlia's background — 40+ years in software development, a chemistry and mathematics foundation, and published research in physics — means DEC understands AI at a fundamental level, not just at the API level.

What We Do

  • AI Readiness Assessment — Evaluate your organization's data, processes, and culture for AI adoption
  • Strategy Development — Identify high-value opportunities where AI can deliver measurable returns
  • Implementation Oversight — Technical oversight of AI projects to ensure they deliver on promises
  • Process Integration — Help your team integrate AI tools into existing workflows effectively
  • Risk Assessment — Honest evaluation of AI risks, limitations, and ethical considerations

Our Approach

DEC's AI consulting follows the same systematic methodology we apply to every problem: start with objectivity, resist hype, probe thoroughly, and deliver solutions that actually work. We are not selling AI products — we are solving your problem, and AI is one of the tools available.
