AI FOR MISSION-DRIVEN OPERATIONS

Embed AI across growth, service, and operations.

Redpath helps higher education, public sector, and nonprofit organizations turn AI opportunities into working, governed capabilities on Salesforce.

We bring business leaders, frontline teams, technology, data, and AI together to identify the right workstreams, launch practical MVPs and pilots, move proven solutions into production, and scale what works across the organization.

THE CHALLENGE

AI should improve the work, not just add another tool.

Many organizations have no shortage of AI ideas. The challenge is deciding:

Where can AI create meaningful value?

Which processes are ready?

How should people and agents work together?

What data can the solution trust?

How will success be measured?

How does a promising pilot become a sustainable operating capability?

Redpath helps organizations answer those questions and carry the work through production.

We do not begin with an agent. We begin with an important outcome.

THE REDPATH OPERATING MODEL

From opportunity to operating capability.

01

Prioritize the right work

Bring business and technology leaders together to identify where AI can have the greatest practical impact. Redpath helps assess potential workstreams based on:

  • Business value
  • Staff and constituent impact
  • Process readiness
  • Data availability
  • Implementation effort
  • Organizational risk
  • The ability to measure results

Typical output

A prioritized AI roadmap with clearly defined workstreams, owners, dependencies, and recommended starting points.

02

Launch one workstream

Take one high-value workstream from concept to governed production in 12 weeks. The Redpath AI Workstream Accelerator includes:

  • Business and user discovery
  • Workflow redesign
  • Data and system assessment
  • MVP development
  • Controlled user testing
  • Governance and human review
  • Production preparation
  • A roadmap for what to scale next

Typical output

One working AI-enabled workstream, tested with real users and tied to a defined business result.

03

Scale AI into the organization

Once a use case proves valuable, Redpath helps connect it to the broader institutional operating model. That may include:

  • Additional workstreams
  • Shared data and integrations
  • Reusable agent actions
  • Common governance standards
  • User training and change enablement
  • Cross-functional workflows
  • A more complete Salesforce and AI architecture

Typical output

A practical scaling plan that expands proven patterns without creating disconnected tools or uncontrolled experimentation.

04

Operate and improve

AI-enabled work requires ongoing ownership. Redpath can help organizations evaluate, maintain, govern, and improve AI capabilities after launch. Managed AI operations may include:

  • Agent and workflow performance reviews
  • Quality and accuracy evaluation
  • Usage and cost monitoring
  • Data-freshness checks
  • Release-readiness assessments
  • Documentation and ownership reviews
  • Policy and prompt updates
  • Technical-debt findings
  • Prioritized improvement recommendations

Typical output

A governed improvement cycle that keeps AI useful, current, measurable, and aligned with institutional needs.

FEATURED STARTING POINT

The AI Workstream Accelerator: from AI opportunity to governed production in 12 weeks.

Redpath works with your business and technology leaders to redesign one important workstream around AI, then builds, pilots, launches, and measures it on Salesforce.

Not another strategy deck. Not an open-ended AI experiment. One real workstream. Real users. A defined business result.

WHERE AI CAN CREATE VALUE

Growth, service, and operations, feeding one operating model.

Three operating lanes: relationships, enrollment, fundraising, and partnerships; students, constituents, grantees, and program participants; research, preparation, routing, coordination, and reporting. Each feeds a central model: prioritize, build, prove, scale.

Growth

Help teams build stronger relationships and act on opportunities sooner.

Potential workstreams

  • Corporate and employer engagement
  • Advancement and donor development
  • Recruitment and enrollment
  • Continuing education
  • Workforce partnerships
  • Research partnerships
  • Grant and funder development
  • Relationship intelligence
  • Meeting and account preparation
  • Next-best-action recommendations

Featured example

Corporate Engagement Intelligence

Bring together an institution's relationship with a company across research, recruiting, philanthropy, alumni, continuing education, and workforce development. Help relationship leaders understand the full partnership, prepare for meetings, coordinate internal stakeholders, and identify opportunities for expansion.

Service

Help constituents get clearer answers and help staff resolve requests with better context.

Potential workstreams

  • Student and prospective-student support
  • Constituent service
  • Program and participant guidance
  • Donor and volunteer support
  • Grant applicant assistance
  • Case and request triage
  • Licensing and permitting guidance
  • Knowledge and policy assistance
  • Human escalation and case summaries

Featured example

Intelligent Service Triage

Understand the request, provide approved guidance, collect missing information, route the issue correctly, and prepare a concise summary when a staff member needs to step in.

Operations

Increase staff capacity across work that requires research, synthesis, coordination, and follow-through.

Potential workstreams

  • Meeting and stakeholder preparation
  • Research and record summaries
  • Proposal and grant development
  • Workflow and request routing
  • Notes-to-action automation
  • Project and implementation support
  • Documentation and training
  • Reporting preparation
  • Data-quality review
  • Cross-functional coordination

Featured example

AI-Assisted Staff Preparation

Turn scattered records, notes, documents, and activity histories into an actionable briefing, giving staff more time for judgment, relationships, and strategic work.

BUILT AROUND SALESFORCE

The right Salesforce capabilities for the operating outcome.

Redpath applies the right Salesforce capabilities to the operating outcome. Depending on the workstream, that may include:

We do not begin with a cloud, license, or product feature. We begin with the work your organization needs to improve.

A FOUNDATION FOR RESPONSIBLE SCALE

Moving AI into real operations requires more than a successful demonstration.

Redpath helps establish the foundation needed to operate and expand responsibly. The objective is not unrestricted automation. It is faster, better work with clear accountability.

  • Clearly defined business ownership
  • Approved data and system access
  • Human review and escalation
  • Measurable targets and cost boundaries
  • Testing before release
  • Traceable and reviewable changes
  • Documented workflows and responsibilities
  • Appropriate separation between client environments
  • Ongoing support and improvement
