Practitioners, not theorists
Pannifer is led by a principal with 25+ years leading expert, recurring client work, who has built and led a firm-wide AI program inside a mid-size consulting firm. Every engagement is led by the principal, whose name, background, and references we share on request.
What we have done, end to end
Inside one consulting firm, our principal wrote the AI strategy and usage policy and carried them through leadership and HR; designed the user groups and training that brought most of the staff in; wrote the standard the firm uses to build and release AI skills; and has led the conversion of every department's recurring work.
The same work included directing AI coding agents to replace a 15-year-old desktop system with a modern web application, and managing the firm's technology vendors and budget with AI doing the routine work and people making every decision.
Strategy firms advise but do not build. Trainers teach but do not change the work. We do both, and we measure the result.
How we work
Growth, not cuts
We do not take engagements whose purpose is reducing staff. We help people move to higher-level work, and we report where the saved hours went.
People decide
AI proposes; a named person approves every output, every rule, and every release.
Proven before trusted
Every skill is tested blind against work your firm already issued before anyone relies on it.
Your data stays yours
Client work stays in your accounts, under your policy. It is used to build and test skills and never ships inside them.
Vendor-neutral
We use Claude, OpenAI, and others, and choose the model for each output by cost and quality.
Virtual first
We work with firms across the United States by video, and come on site for training and workshops when travel is covered.
Hands-on IT, through a partner
We lead the technology decisions: vendors, budgets, licenses, and how AI fits in. Hands-on IT work, such as devices, networks, cloud setup, and security operations, is done by an established IT solutions partner with more than two decades of serving small and mid-size businesses. You have one accountable lead; the work is done by specialists.
