Our Services - The AI GainShare Lifecycle
Stage 1 - Discovery
AI Gainshare Health Check
Most organisations don’t know what they’re missing. Your providers do.
We assess your contract portfolio against our four-dimension diagnostic framework — your contractual position and disclosure rights, the health of your supplier relationship, where you sit in the renewal lifecycle, and the leverage you actually hold. We score your existing terms against the five AI contract blind spots and produce a board-ready report: what’s at stake, where the gaps are, and what to do about it.
What you get:
• Quantified estimate of annual value currently captured by your providers
• Contract-by-contract gap analysis across all five blind spots
• Provider AI maturity assessments by service line
• A prioritised action plan with ROI justification for next steps
If there’s no opportunity, we’ll tell you. If there is — and there almost always is — the case for action writes itself.
Stage 2 - Baseline
Evidence & Quantification
You can’t negotiate what you can’t prove. Before any commercial conversation with a provider, you need a defensible, auditable baseline — one built to withstand challenge.
We collect and validate 12–24 months of historical data across cost, FTE, volume, productivity, and quality for every relevant service domain: service desk, application development, platform engineering, QA and testing, and systems integration. We then construct an independent view of your provider’s actual cost of delivery — not what they charge you, but what it costs them.
That gap is where your gainshare lives.
What you get:
• Validated pre-AI productivity baseline by service line
• Independent estimate of provider delivery economics
• Benchmarked data triangulated against Trinity3’s market intelligence
• A negotiation-ready evidence pack
Providers challenge numbers they can’t verify. We build numbers they can’t ignore.
Stage 3 - Design and Negotiate
AI Gainshare Mechanisms
The baseline tells you what value exists. This stage locks in your right to a share of it.
We design bespoke AI gainshare mechanisms for your contracts — gain-share ratios, measurement protocols, transparency obligations, audit rights, and renegotiation triggers. Then we lead or support the commercial negotiation with your providers, using our insider understanding of how major systems integrators model AI productivity in their delivery economics.
Where contracts are mid-term, we identify and activate the clauses that open a legitimate path to renegotiation now — material change provisions, technology change clauses, innovation review points — without waiting for renewal.
What you get:
• Bespoke AI gainshare mechanism design
• Commercial negotiation leadership or support
• Mid-contract renegotiation strategy where applicable
• Contractual schedules, audit rights, and enforcement provisions
This is the commercial conversation most clients don’t know how to have. We do — because we’ve been on the other side of it.
Stage 4 - Implementation
Governance That Works
A gainshare clause in a contract is worthless without the governance to enforce it.
We embed the frameworks, measurement cadences, and reporting disciplines that make the mechanism real. Our governance model is maturity-based — it evolves as the relationship develops, rather than locking you into a framework that becomes irrelevant at the first contract review. We stay until the governance is working, not until the ink is dry.
What you get:
• Maturity-based governance framework calibrated to your contract and relationship
• Reciprocal accountability measures for both client and provider
• Joint progress forums and measurement dashboards
• Gainshare audit protocols tied directly to contract calculations
Good governance isn’t bureaucracy. It’s how you make sure the value keeps flowing.
Stage 5 - Sustain and Extend
Coaching, Capability & Ongoing Value Realisation
The goal was never for you to need Trinity3 forever.
Stage 5 builds the internal capability to own the AI gainshare conversation yourselves — using Trinity3’s EMCC-accredited coaching methodology. This isn’t a training course. It’s structured, accredited coaching that develops lasting commercial instinct in your CIOs, procurement leads, and delivery teams, built around the same four dimensions as our diagnostic framework.
For clients who want ongoing advisory support, we offer a retained model with a success-linked fee — our interests stay aligned with yours.
What you get:
• EMCC-accredited 1:1 coaching for CIOs, procurement directors, and delivery leads
• Team capability programmes across commercial literacy, relationship strategy, and lifecycle planning
• Board and executive-level sourcing support
• Ongoing advisory retainer with success-linked pricing
This is where most consultancies disappear. We stay — until you no longer need us.
Why Trinity3?
We’ve sat on all three sides of this conversation.
AS THE CLIENT - Designing AI gainshare principles and outcome-based contract frameworks delivering massive annual savings in scope.
AS THE SUPPLIER - Understanding exactly how major systems integrators model AI productivity in their delivery economics.
AS THE ARCHITECT - Building the contractual and governance frameworks that make gain-share enforceable, not theoretical.
That perspective is rare.
Combined with EMCC-accredited coaching methodology and a pricing model built for accessibility, it means you get enterprise-grade AI contracting expertise without the enterprise price tag — and without the conflict of interest that comes from advisors who are also selling you services.
