The situation

$4B

Industrial conglomerate, 16 divisions, 70+ facilities

A $4B industrial conglomerate ran 16 divisions across 70+ facilities. Sales teams worked in silos with no shared market intelligence. Prospecting was manual and untethered from what the company could actually make. Cross-sell opportunities between divisions were invisible.

Leadership had no unified view of where capital projects were happening or where the white space was. Pipeline depended on individual effort. The company needed one system, and chose three divisions to run it first.

What was built

10–14

Weeks from kickoff to production

ClearForge built an AI system for opportunity identification and qualification. It went from kickoff to a live production system in 10 to 14 weeks.

The system watched capital projects and industrial demand signals across 20+ states, matched each opportunity to the company's actual product lines and territories, and generated a rep-ready playbook for each account. Sales feedback on every playbook fed back into the scoring.

It shipped with an eval harness and reliability gates. Outputs were checked against a test set before release. All three divisions worked from the same system.

How adoption was run

70%

Weekly-active adoption bar by day 90

Adoption ran on the Adoption Mile. A named operator owned it. The teams met on a weekly working cadence. A live adoption scoreboard tracked weekly-active use.

The engagement was built to the 70 percent weekly-active adoption bar by day 90. That is the standard the firm builds to.
