The Real Problems
Sound familiar? It should.
Four patterns · one root cause
01
Smart people stuck doing dumb work
Your analysts were hired for their judgment, not to copy data between spreadsheets. When 80% of their time goes to data prep, you're paying for expertise you're not using.
80%
of analyst time lost to work AI should handle
02
AI investments that never empowered anyone
You've seen the demos and hired the consultants. But nothing reached your team's hands. No measurable lift. Just strategy decks collecting dust while your people keep doing things the hard way.
85%
of AI projects never make it to production
03
Institutional knowledge is trapped in silos
Your team's expertise is scattered across ERP, CRM, spreadsheets, and people's heads. Nobody has the full picture. Great decisions require great information, and right now it takes days, not minutes.
3-5x
cost multiplier when teams lack unified intelligence
04
You want to augment your team but don't know where to start
AI agents, LLMs, copilots: the options are overwhelming. You need a partner who understands your people and processes, identifies where Human+AI creates the biggest multiplier, and actually builds it.
60%
of leaders say identifying the right AI use cases is their top challenge
How We Augment Your Team
Three ways in. One standard: shipped.
01
Your buyers ask an assistant, and it names someone else
AI Search Visibility
We measure whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews name your company on the questions your buyers actually ask, then fix the reasons they don't. A mention you never got leaves no trace in your analytics, so we instrument it first.
- A citation rate scored against competitors you name
- Entity and crawler repairs that lift citations without new content
- Re-measured every 30 days, so movement is provable
02
You know AI matters, but don't know where to start
AI Enablement & Strategy
We identify where AI creates the biggest multiplier for your team and implement it, from predictive analytics to intelligent copilots, so your people make better decisions, faster.
- Clear AI roadmap built around your team's workflows
- First Human+AI wins scoped and deployed fast
- Team upskilled to sustain and expand on their own
03
Your supply chain breaks when the world shifts
Resilient Supply Chain Design
We build AI-augmented supply chain networks using SAP IBP and AI-driven forecasting, giving your planners superhuman visibility so disruptions become manageable events, not crises.
- Planners augmented with AI-driven demand sensing
- Inventory optimization guided by human judgment + ML
- Scenario planning your team actually trusts and uses

The Operator Behind It
Twenty years of missions where “it didn't ship” wasn't an option.
TEM&C is led by a Marine officer who spent a career making complex operations work under pressure, then brought that standard to supply chain and AI transformation. We augment teams, not just advise them. AI that elevates people, not replaces them. Mission-focused delivery, every engagement.
