CUSCOE operating model

CUSCOE is an operating model for professional and managed services organisations delivering AI as a service. It places a single governed Portfolio at the centre of the business, pools technical staff into competency-based Centres of Excellence, and gives Customer Success ownership of the customer after signature. The model was presented at KMIS 2026 (Copeland and Mogford, 2026, doi:10.5220/0015343800004985). With thanks to Kathy Mogford for her review and amendments to the model. CUSCOE is a registered trademark of CX Bridge Ltd. Organisations may implement the model internally without a commercial licence; see docs/permissions.md.

Abstract

CUSCOE is an operating model for professional and managed services organisations delivering AI as a service. It places a single governed Portfolio at the centre of the business, pools technical staff into competency-based Centres of Excellence, and gives Customer Success ownership of the customer after signature. The model was presented at KMIS 2026 (Copeland and Mogford, 2026, doi:10.5220/0015343800004985). With thanks to Kathy Mogford for her review and amendments to the model.
