I've spent my career delivering complex projects — from offshore facilities to digital solutions — in roles spanning Project Management, Strategy, Business Development, and Proposals.
The goal has always been the same:
Secure profitable projects, deliver with confidence, and keep clients happy.
Today, I bring that same mindset into the AI space — combining practical delivery experience with the power of automation, insight, and smart systems to help project-based teams win more work and deliver better outcomes.
This is a hands-on advisory practice led by James Clements, backed by proven tools, tested delivery methods, and a flexible network of expert collaborators.
When your project needs additional support — from technical integrations to training or rollout — we bring in the right capability at the right time.
Strategy stays tight. Delivery scales as needed.
James Clements – AI & Project Strategy Consultant
25+ years in Projects, Proposals, and Business Development
Why It Matters to You
Most AI consultants come from tech.
I come from delivery.
That means I understand how real-world teams operate — and how to make AI work with your systems, not against them.
Whether it’s:
Reducing proposal workload
Supporting data-driven bid/no-bid decisions
Helping your PMs anticipate risks
Or improving how lessons learned get captured and reused...
I’ve lived the same challenges your teams face - and I’ve built the systems to solve them.
