Problem

Employees spent time drafting documents and finding information. AGC wanted to make internal information available through its generative AI environment.

Approach

AGC introduced ChatAGC in June 2023 and added internal-data connections in August 2024. Employees used it for tasks including document summarization and code generation. AGC estimated savings by task using employee survey responses.

Results

Takeaway

The reported savings were survey-based estimates of avoided work, rather than directly measured changes in working hours.
