Enterprise Intelligence Group

Forward-Deployed AI Consulting for Retail, CPG and Distribution

Forward-deployed AI consulting for retail, CPG and distribution — turning the knowledge already in your business into better decisions.

We Work Inside Your Business to Find and Deliver the AI Opportunities That Matter

We sit alongside your merchants, buyers, planners, store teams and operational leaders — observing how decisions are actually made, capturing the expertise behind them, and building practical AI on the systems you already use.

Category reviews · Buyer shadowing · Planning cycles · Store visits · Supplier meetings

Decision maps · Knowledge libraries · AI opportunity portfolios · Assistant designs · 90-day roadmaps

Vendor-agnostic · Existing systems · Fixed-scope starting engagements · Senior retail expertise

Data records what happened. Retail Intelligence explains why it mattered.

You're asked to improve category performance, protect margin and move faster — with leaner teams and more complexity than ever. More dashboards haven't fixed it, because the problem was never a shortage of data.

It's a shortage of accessible commercial knowledge. The reasoning behind your best decisions — why a category is built the way it is, why one supplier is handled differently, which exceptions your experienced people apply — lives in individuals, documents and history, not in your systems.

Intelligence before automation.

The decisions and knowledge that matter most to your commercial performance.

So that knowledge can be trusted, reused and safely applied.

Useful AI — retrieval, copilots, bounded agents — inside the systems you already run.

The commercial change — and scale only on evidence.

We understand your world — because we’ve worked in it.

Enterprise Intelligence Group is built by retail operators with 15 years across retail, CPG and distribution. We know category reviews, joint business plans, assortment politics, margin leaks and the “Unwritten Knowns” — because we’ve lived them. That’s why our AI works inside your reality, not around it.

15 years in retail, CPG & distribution

Hands-on, not theoretical. We’ve sat in the category reviews, built the JBPs, and chased the margin — so we understand your world because we’ve worked in it.

We speak your language from day one

Category, merchandising, pricing, supplier and commercial. No translation layer, no generic-AI-consultant learning curve — retail people who get it.

A trusted partner — human-accountable

Friendly and professional. Our AI supports your experts and preserves their judgment; people stay accountable for the decisions that matter.

Original thinking — not another generic AI white paper.

Executive frameworks, guides, industry briefs and white papers built from 15 years in retail — memorable models you can apply on Monday. Enter your work email for any of them; the rest of the library is yours for the asking.

Intelligence Before Automation™

Intelligence Before Automation — the discipline that makes AI safe to rely on: understand and govern the knowledge before you automate the work.
