Business Consulting · AI Implementation

Every business has a backbone. We make yours intelligent

Back Bone is a full service business consultancy and AI implementation partner. We get inside how your business runs, find what holds it back, then build the strategy, systems and intelligence that move it forward.

Strategy. Marketing. Sales. Systems. Security. AI that empowers your people, never replaces them.

Scroll
We don't help you replace your people. We help you unleash them.
AI is not here for your team's jobs. It is here for their busywork.

Our goal has never been fewer staff. It is the same staff, freed from the repetitive work that eats their week, and pointed at the work that actually grows the business: customers, ideas, relationships, decisions. When the busywork goes to the machines, your people finally get to do what you hired them for.

We are consultants first. The technology comes second.

Most firms lead with a tool. We lead with a diagnosis. We learn how your business actually operates, find where time and money leak, then build the strategy, systems and intelligence that fix it. We train your people, and we stay until the change is live and your team owns it.

What we do

Six pillars. One backbone.

Everything a modern business needs to run sharper, sell more and stay secure. Select a pillar to see what is inside.

What could AI do in your business?

Pick a department. These are the kinds of changes we build first for businesses like yours, and they are only the beginning.

Proof

The world's best brands did it. Their people stayed.

America's biggest companies have already run this play: bring in the strategists, build in the AI, and hand the hours back to their people. The publicly reported results speak for themselves.

JPMorgan Chase · Banking
360,000 hrs
returned to lawyers and loan officers, every year

Their COIN system reads commercial loan agreements in seconds, work that once consumed 360,000 hours of skilled staff time a year, and cut compliance errors by around 80% along the way.

Their people: the same lawyers, moved from mind-numbing document review to advisory work that earns.
UPS · Logistics
100M miles
cut from delivery routes each year, saving up to $400m annually

ORION, their AI route optimiser, evaluates over 200,000 route options per driver per day, saving around 10 million gallons of fuel a year.

Their people: the same drivers, driving smarter routes. The AI plans, the humans deliver.
Bank of America · Finance
55% fewer
internal help desk calls after giving staff their own AI assistant

Erica for Employees answers IT and HR questions instantly and is used by 95% of the bank's 213,000 people. The client version has passed 3 billion interactions, answering most questions in under a minute.

Their people: staff stopped waiting on hold for the help desk and got that time back for clients.
Starbucks · Hospitality
60 15 min
inventory counts, from an hour with pen and paper to a tablet scan

Deep Brew, their AI platform, handles personalisation, smarter rostering and inventory, lifting engagement and cutting overstock by around 30% in the US.

Their people: baristas spend the reclaimed time where it matters, with customers.
These companies spent hundreds of millions building their AI. The same playbook now fits businesses your size, and bringing it to you is exactly what we do.

Why Back Bone

Operators, not theorists.

01

We have run the business

Decades leading a complex, multi site operation. We understand owners because we have been one.

02

Strategy and delivery, one team

Most firms advise or build. We do both, so nothing gets lost in the handover.

03

Outcomes over jargon

We talk in revenue, time saved and better decisions. The result is the only scorecard.

04

Built to last

We do not bolt on a tool and leave. We embed the change and hand your team the controls.

The founders

Two specialists, one team.

A business strategist who reads any business fast, and a marketing and systems lead who makes the change real.
