Pythian delivers solutions for QAD, a provider of next-generation manufacturing and supply chain solutions management in the cloud. The challenge was to determine whether Vertex AI Search and Conversation could improve employees' ability to conduct internal searches of information and enhance overall performance.

QAD, a long-time customer of Google Cloud, uses internal Google Sites to store useful information for employees. Google Cloud Search allows employees to use keyword searching to find information. QAD wanted to conduct a proof of concept of Vertex AI Search and Conversation on five internal Google Sites.

Pythian recommended an internal admin use Google Takeout to export HTML content from the Google Sites and then upload the content to a Google Cloud Storage GCS) bucket. Pythian created a Vertex AI Search and Conversation app to index the uploaded HTML content. They also trained employees on how to best use Vertex AI Search and Conversation.
