The timeline for developing and implementing an advanced AI-powered search solution can vary based on the complexity of your requirements and the scale of data integration needed. Typically, the process follows these stages:
- Initial Consultation and Requirements Gathering: 1-2 weeks
- System Design and Architecture: 2-4 weeks
- Development and Data Integration: 8-12 weeks
- Testing and Refinement: 2-4 weeks
- Deployment and Initial Training: 1-2 weeks
So, a full implementation usually takes between 3-6 months. However, we can often provide a basic version for testing much earlier in the process.
Regarding your team's involvement:
- We require active participation from key stakeholders during the initial consultation and requirements gathering phase.
- We'll need periodic input and feedback throughout the development process, especially during testing and refinement.
- Your IT team will be involved in data integration and security implementation.
- We recommend designating a project manager from your side to liaise with our team.
- Once deployed, we provide training sessions for your staff to ensure optimal use of the new system.
While we manage the technical aspects, your team's insights into your specific business needs and processes are crucial for creating a truly effective and tailored AI-powered search solution.
