Description

AGC MA Two Part AI Series: Building Smarter with AI: From Company Knowledge to Practical Results
Your company has valuable knowledge—in its people, processes, project files, and lessons learned. How can you make that knowledge more useful, and where does AI fit? This two-part series explores how to build a strong foundation for AI and make technology decisions that support the way your company works.

Part 1: (Live-Remote) Choose AI with Purpose: Match the Right Tools to the Work
Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT—or something else? Before choosing a platform, clarify the work you want to improve.
Building on Part 1, this session explores how to connect your company’s knowledge, business priorities, and everyday workflows to practical AI opportunities. Learn how to frame the right questions, assess potential applications, and evaluate tools based on your team’s needs. The focus is a clear path from experimenting with AI to choosing solutions that deliver useful results.

Your leadership team wants an AI plan. Your board wants to know it's safe. And your employees are already pasting company data into personal AI accounts on their work machines.
Most organizations respond by picking a tool. That's backwards.
A platform doesn't come with training, an acceptable use policy, visibility into shadow AI, or anyone to administer it. Those are the parts that actually determine whether an AI rollout succeeds or quietly creates a compliance problem.

In this 45-minute session, NetCov's cybersecurity and AI leadership will walk through the four-step framework we use to stand up governed AI programs for regulated and security-conscious organizations: train, govern, codify, then deploy.
You'll leave with:
- A clear picture of what shadow AI looks like inside a typical mid-market environment
- The components of an AI acceptable use policy that holds up to regulatory scrutiny
- A practical way to evaluate any AI platform on security, data handling, and admin control
- A selection framework for Microsoft 365 Copilot, Claude Enterprise, and managed alternatives, and how to tell which fits your organization

Part 2: (In- Person) Build Your Company Brain: Turn What Your Team Knows into Knowledge Everyone Can Use
Your best people know how to solve problems, navigate processes, and keep projects moving. But when that expertise lives in individual inboxes, scattered files, or someone’s memory, the rest of the team can struggle to find what they need.

This workshop explores how to capture and organize your company’s knowledge to support everyday work and future AI use. Examine where valuable information lives, what is worth documenting, and how to begin building a “company brain” that helps employees find answers, share expertise, and avoid reinventing the wheel.

Leave with one working AI build, your level on the climb, and the next habit that gets the company off the owner's desk so the business can scale.


THE WORKSHOP
Your accounting lives in one system. Field management in another. HR, communication and internal documentation in three more. None of them talk to each other, so the answers your team needs are scattered and someone spends the week chasing them.
What leaders really want is to grow the business. Seeing it all in one place is how you get there. In this hands-on workshop, GC and trade leaders learn how to make AI work across the tools they already run. Bring a laptop. Leave with one working build your team can use Monday.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Owners, operations, finance, PM and estimating leads at GCs and trade companies who want to grow the business and are tired of chasing answers across systems that don't talk.

WHO SHOULD NOT ATTEND
Anyone looking for a coding class or a software pitch.

YOU'LL LEAVE WITH:
1. Your level on the 5 Levels of AI, and the one habit that gets you to the next one.
2. A working open-items build, saved so your whole team can reuse it.
3. A Monday plan: one tool, one saved prompt, one owner.

THE CLIMB: 5 LEVELS OF AI



Three rules for the climb:
1. A business breaks in one place at a time. Fix your biggest constraint first.
2. You own the first 10%, the vision, and the last 10%, the quality check. AI runs the middle 80%.
3. You don't delegate the task. You delegate the decisions around the task.
(From the AI Freedom Summit with Dan Martell.)

WHAT YOU'LL BUILD
Take a messy job email thread and turn it into an open-items log (what's open, who owes it, since when) plus a ready-to-send follow-up email.
Then save it as a reusable prompt your whole team can run. It works in the AI tool you already have.

Presented by:

Zulfiya Forsythe is a CPA and the CEO of Omadli Group. She spent about 10 years in accounting, then about 10 years in data and AI.

Omadli Group: Data and AI for Construction. Your money, your crews, and your jobs sit in systems that do not talk, so no one sees the whole picture until it is a problem. We build construction operations intelligence: one brain that fixes that.

Job knowledge lives in one place, so the company no longer runs through the owner.
