Plan Phase: Creating Your
GenAI Solution Blueprint
The "Plan" phase is about creating a comprehensive strategy to
integrate GenAI into your business.
We use the PAD framework (Problem, Ability, Data) as a guide to develop a
blueprint for your GenAI solution.
This framework helps you define what your solution will look like, what data it needs, and how to integrate that data effectively.
The PAD framework is a new framework created by working with companies across many different industries on their AI transformation projects. It provides a structured and disciplined decision flow to gather key intelligence needed for the adoption process.
Successfully implementing the PAD framework will prepare you to start building and testing your GenAI solution. By the end of this phase, you will have a clear blueprint of what your solution will look like, what data it needs, and how to integrate it effectively, tailored to your business.

Problem
Clearly identify and articulate the problem, and determine if GenAI is the right tool for the job. This is a
crucial "go" or "no-go" decision point.

Abilities
Identify the specific capabilities the AI needs to solve the problem and align these needs with available GenAI solutions.

Data
Learn to organize, evaluate, and
integrate your data into GenAI
models to provide them with the
necessary abilities.
