OneDigital’s AI-Powered Transformation: How Microsoft Azure is Supercharging Consultant Productivity and Client Engagement
OneDigital's Collaboration with Microsoft Azure Is Changing the Future of Consulting—One AI Coworker at a Time
OneDigital is at the forefront of reimagining how consulting firms integrate artificial intelligence into their workflows. In a recent case study, Microsoft selected OneDigital as a model organization to demonstrate how the Azure platform can be used to co-develop AI-powered "coworkers." These digital team members help consultants deliver more personalized, data-driven insights—faster and more effectively than ever before.
Through this collaboration, OneDigital has deployed custom AI agents powered by Microsoft Azure, dramatically enhancing consultant productivity and allowing the firm’s talent to focus more on strategic advisory rather than time-consuming research. The results are clear: faster, smarter client insights that strengthen relationships and improve client retention.
At OneDigital, we believe that AI should empower people, not replace them. Our collaboration with Microsoft Azure has enabled us to transform how our team works, giving consultants the tools they need to deliver more value in less time while maintaining a human-first approach.

What Makes OneDigital’s AI Strategy Stand Out?
- AI That Fits the Culture – OneDigital frames AI as a colleague rather than a tool. This approach fosters easy adoption of AI by staff, who view these digital assistants as team members who enhance their work rather than replace it. This cultural fit has driven strong internal buy-in.
- Proven Results, Measurable Efficiency – OneDigital has saved over 1,000 person-hours annually since rolling out its AI agents. This efficiency boost has allowed consultants to deliver strategic insights faster, elevating the overall quality of client meetings.
- Scalability Across Functions – OneDigital's early success with its AI coworker initiative is paving the way for broader applications. The organization is actively expanding its AI capabilities into areas like proposal writing, market research, and internal employee support, unlocking efficiencies and innovation across the business.
AI That Enhances Human Connection
OneDigital’s partnership with Microsoft has set a new standard for integrating AI into consulting services. By focusing on human-centered AI—tools that enhance, not replace, the expertise of OneDigital’s team—the firm is redefining what it means to leverage technology in the service of clients.
OneDigital’s innovation journey with Microsoft Azure proves that AI can create a more strategic, people-first workplace when applied thoughtfully. Through AI-powered coworkers, OneDigital is scaling its consulting power and making client interactions more personalized and impactful.
