Inspect the highlighted sourceThe challenge
KPMG member firms' roughly 7,000 SAP-specialized consultants needed faster access to SAP's most current implementation guidance, configuration methods, and technical reference materials. The traditional way of accessing this knowledge involved working through documentation or relying on internal specialists, which could slow down delivery, especially for offshore teams.
The solution
KPMG member firms equipped their global SAP software consultants with SAP Joule for Consultants, a generative AI solution accessed through the Joule copilot, explored initially through SAP's Early Access Program. The solution gives consultants natural-language access to SAP's knowledge base of implementation data, reducing the need to sift through data manually. KPMG also used SAP Business Data Cloud (SAP BDC) to bring together structured and unstructured data from both SAP and third-party solutions.
Reported business value
Instead of a manual search for information across different platforms, consultants can now access what they need in the moment with just one prompt. The solution helps accelerate client research by summarizing system documentation, best practices, and process insights, and streamlines the creation of deliverables such as transformation road maps, system documentation, and change-impact assessments. KPMG firms report improved service quality through increased consultant productivity, reduced errors, and gold standards enriched by SAP's leading practices.

McKinsey's Firmwide Knowledge Copilot "Lilli"
McKinsey launched Lilli, a generative-AI platform that provides streamlined, impartial search and synthesis of the firm's internal knowledge to help consultants build client engagement plans. The firm's intellectual property spans more than 40 curated knowledge sources today, and McKinsey said there will be more than 100,000 documents and interview transcripts of internal and third-party content in the future. A user asks a question and Lilli scans the firm's knowledge base, surfaces five to seven of the most relevant pieces of content, summarizes key points, and identifies subject-matter experts. McKinsey piloted Lilli with real users and was scaling it from an initial team of three to more than 70 experts, aiming to reach thousands of colleagues by the end of the year.
