What BOX means for your organization

Our clients can access three things through Kearney’s BOX partnership:

Convert AI investments into operational results. AI pilots that stay in pilot mode are a solvable problem. We work backward from the operational outcomes, margin, delivery speed, and cost control to pinpoint which AI capabilities to prioritize and in what sequence. Through BOX, that advisory work connects directly to AWS infrastructure and implementation support, reducing the time between decision and value.

Redesign the operating model, not just the technology. Fewer than half of AI initiatives deliver on their promise. The gap is rarely technical. Decision-making structures, cross-functional alignment, and change leadership determine whether new tools change how work actually gets done. Kearney’s operations and supply chain expertise, supported by AWS’s platform capabilities, addresses the full redesign, from how decisions get made to how the workforce adopts new ways of working.

Engage C-suite and line-of business leaders from the start. BOX was built to bring advisory expertise into client conversations earlier in the transformation life cycle—before technology choices are made, not after. Kearney engages directly with COOs, CPOs, and functional leaders to translate business priorities into investment strategy and to quantify the operational value at stake before a dollar is committed.
