Time Detroit's real engineering and quality processes — then automate the handoffs that gate launches.

Dataken works with organizations in Detroit, Michigan that need to know how their people actually perform work before deciding what to automate. We do task mining at the desktop level — measuring applications, steps, handoffs, rework, and time — then quantify where AI and automation pay, implement it through OLi, and measure the result.

Detroit's engineering and supplier-quality desktops run long, structured processes — PPAP packages, change orders, warranty analysis, and supplier scorecards — that span many systems and many organizations. Cycle time on these processes directly gates program launches, and almost none of it is visible in any single system.

How Dataken serves Detroit: Dataken, Inc. is headquartered in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, Texas — our only office. OLi is desktop software deployed to your endpoints, so Detroit engagements are delivered remotely. On-site sessions can be arranged by agreement.

What Dataken does for Detroit organizations

Measure the work first. Automate second.

Most AI consulting starts with an interview: tell us your problems. Dataken starts with measurement — task mining and process intelligence built from a first-party activity graph in production since 2020, across more than 10 billion activity records. A Detroit engagement runs six steps.

  1. 01

    Observe how work is actually performed

    Task mining at the desktop level — applications used, steps taken, durations, and variation between people doing the same job. Measured, not interviewed.

  2. 02

    Identify bottlenecks, rework, handoffs and friction

    The activity graph surfaces duplicate work, decision delays, over-complicated steps, and the private workarounds that never appear in a process map.

  3. 03

    Quantify the opportunity and the ROI

    Every finding carries a measured frequency and duration across the population, so the business case is arithmetic rather than estimate.

  4. 04

    Determine where AI, automation, or agents actually make sense

    Prioritized by volume, repeatability, and measured cost — which also means saying plainly which processes should be eliminated rather than automated.

  5. 05

    Implement it — not just deliver a strategy deck

    OLi ships to the desktop and acts at the point of work, surfacing the right knowledge, content, or completed action in the moment.

  6. 06

    Measure the result afterward

    The same activity graph that produced the baseline measures the change. 10% more productive time in 30 days, or the engagement is not billed.

Questions from Detroit

Frequently asked

Can OLi map a process that crosses OEM and supplier organizations?
OLi maps what happens on instrumented desktops within your own tenant. Cross-organization visibility requires each party to deploy separately. In practice, most Detroit deployments start inside one engineering or quality organization and use the resulting process map to renegotiate the external handoffs.
Does Dataken have an office in Detroit?
No. Dataken, Inc. is headquartered in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, Texas, and serves Detroit organizations remotely. OLi is desktop software deployed to your endpoints, so delivery, rollout, and support are performed remotely; on-site sessions can be arranged by agreement.
How do Detroit teams start with OLi?
Start with a 30-minute demo. Deployment scopes to a single operational function first, runs against a baseline agreed at kickoff, and carries the 10%-more-productive-time-in-30-days commitment.
