Harnessing the power of GenAI
Ìý
We're taking a two-pronged approach to help our client explore and pilot GenAI within their software delivery teams.
Ìý
First, we're introducing our Haivenâ„¢ team assistant, an AI-based knowledge amplifier to guide and automate frequently done tasks across the software delivery lifecycle to swiftly kickstart the tooling aspect, clearing technical hurdles so we can focus directly on understanding how GenAI affects people and practices within the team.
Ìý
Second, we're collaboratively designing a series of experiments to identify the tasks where GenAI support is most beneficial, establishing baseline metrics to gauge how the tooling impacts team productivity. These experiments showcase how GenAI can enhance the flow and quality of work by amplifying good practices and knowledge within the delivery team.

Ìý
Centralized knowledge access is empowering teams to find and utilize Confluence information quicker than before.
Leveraging and integrating the right tools
Ìý
At the core of our approach is utilizing advanced AI coding assistants such as GitHub Copilot, complemented by internal tools like Haiven that are backed by LLMs (Large Language Models) and enable reusable tailored prompting for a range of recurring software delivery tasks.
Ìý
Our mission is to showcase the tangible benefits of GenAI tools to teams well-versed in effective software development practices. By providing quantifiable evidence of the value of these GenAI tools, we are empowering our client with actionable insights to drive organizational growth and the methods to ensure that these successes can be replicated across all development teams.
