## Resource

AI is changing many industries, and none more that consulting. AI tools can do some of the work of junior consultants, leading to increases in productivity but also difficulty in justifying the fees of the big players. Quantum Rise was founded to capitalize on this, through their "Consulting 2.0" model that blends a deeply AI-powered consulting team with a technical bench to implement the strategies developed for customers. VP of consulting Kevin Scott talks through Quantum Rise's approach, including their adoption of the "lean startup mentality," with frequent iterative prototyping and outcomes-focused project delivery. At a time when construction is balancing the desire to adopt AI with the risks of change management, Quantum Rise provides a full spectrum of services for contractors that minimizes risk of poor adoption while targeting real value.
