Same projects. Different combination. Greater results.
You can achieve higher returns with your existing projects.
We calculate the optimum scenario - before you decide.
Free of charge. Without obligation. Based on your existing projects.
StratePlan calculates the optimal portfolio where traditional tools reach their limits.
Instead of evaluating projects in isolation, we analyze all possible combinations - and identify the best solution.
The global optimum is not an assumption - it can be calculated.

CEO - CFO - Management Board and Supervisory Board corporate consulting with AI decision intelligence
Why traditional consulting is reaching its limits - and how calculated decisions are becoming reality for the first time
Executive Summary
Companies today are under unprecedented pressure to make decisions: increasing complexity, volatile markets, regulatory consolidation, reputational risks from the media and social networks and an exponential increase in strategic strategic options for action. For CEOs, CFOs and supervisory boards, this means Decisions must not only be made faster, but above all demonstrably better, more transparent and liability-proof.
Traditional management consulting - as valuable as it has historically been - is predominantly based on experience, heuristics, benchmarks and plausible narratives, Benchmarks and plausible narratives. These approaches reach their limits where Combinatorics, dependencies, budget restrictions and non-linear effects dominate.
This is where AI-based decision intelligence comes in. It does not replace intuition, but makes it calculable, validatable and reproducible. At the heart of this paradigm shift is a new generation of consulting: Decision Intelligence for the C-Level.
This article systematically classifies the field, introduces the people involved and then provides a direct introduction to StratePlan stratePlan - an operationally applicable decision-making and optimization platform for CEOs, CFOs and supervisory boards.
1. The new reality at C-level: decisions under extreme complexity
1.1 From linear problems to exponential decision spaces
As soon as more than seven projects, initiatives or investment options are considered simultaneously, the number of possible combinations mathematically explodes (2n). Traditional methods such as business cases, Excel models, scenario workshops, Scorecards or SWOT analyses are not designed to fully to fully capture such decision spaces.
The result is seemingly rational decisions that are subsequently are subsequently revealed to be suboptimal, risky or even liability-relevant.
1.2 The liability dimension for the CEO, CFO and supervisory board
As transparency increases, so do expectations: Why was project A prioritized and not project B? What alternatives were examined? What was the objective basis for the decision?
Management and supervisory boards are not liable for poor results, but they are certainly liable for inadequate decision-making processes. This is precisely where the need for comprehensible, documented and verifiable decision-making logic.
2. Why traditional management consulting is structurally limited
2.1 Experiential knowledge vs. system knowledge
Traditional consulting works with best practices, industry comparisons and and empirical values from similar projects. These methods are valuable - but they do not scale with complexity. Experience is by definition backward-looking.
2.2 Narrative instead of calculation
Consulting results are often translated into convincing storylines. These are necessary for alignment, but problematic, if alternatives are not fully calculated, Conflicts of objectives are not resolved mathematically and budget restrictions are only roughly taken into account.
The result: decisions are interpreted - not calculated.
3. AI decision intelligence: from gut feeling to calculated strategy
3.1 What decision intelligence really means
Decision intelligence is not reporting, not forecasting and not pure AI analysis. It is the ability to make decisions under real restrictions such as budget, Resources, time, dependencies and risks to calculate the best possible combination of options for action.
Not "What could happen?", but: Which decision will have the greatest impact under the given conditions?
3.2 AI as an enabler - not a decision-maker
AI does not make decisions. It analyzes millions of options simultaneously, recognizes non-intuitive combinations, quantifies trade-offs and makes implicit assumptions explicit.
The strategy still comes from people - CEOs cEOs, CFOs and market specialists. AI makes this strategy validatable and optimizable.
4. The brains behind the paradigm shift
4.1 Sascha Rissel - entrepreneur, system architect, initiator
Sascha Rissel has been an entrepreneur for over two decades, Managing director and strategic architect of complex business models. His career has been characterized by the development, scaling and sale of several companies and operational responsibility in technology and project-intensive markets.
From his practical experience, he recognized a structural deficit: Decisions with existential implications were regularly made were regularly made on the basis of incomplete models.
His aim was therefore not to repackage consulting, but to redefine decision-making processes themselves.
4.2 Dr. Igor Kadoshchuk - Mathematics, algorithms, decision logic
Dr. Igor Kadoshchuk is a mathematician and algorithm architect with a focus on combinatorial optimization, Decision logic under constraints and mathematical portfolio models.
His work moves where where classical AI reaches its limits: Not recognizing patterns, but calculating decisions.
The collaboration between Rissel and Kadoshchuk combines entrepreneurial reality with mathematical precision.
5. StratePlan the business "GPS" - decision intelligence as an operational consulting solution
5.1 What StratePlan is - and what it is not
StratePlan is not a simulation or a forecasting tool, not a classic BI system and not presentation software.
StratePlan is an operational decision-making and optimization platform, that calculates strategic options instead of interpreting them.
5.2 The core approach: calculating strategy with limited budgets instead of describing it
- Strategy input from CEO, CFO or market specialists
- Definition of real restrictions (budget, resources, time)
- Modeling of all relevant projects and dependencies
- Combinatorial calculation of all permissible portfolios
- Identification of the optimal decision options
- Transparent documentation of the decision-making logic
6. Fields of application for CEOs
StratePlan supports CEOs with corporate strategy, Transformation, growth, M&A, internationalization as well as product and market portfolios.
7. Fields of application for CFOs
CFOs use StratePlan for capital allocation, Budget optimization, portfolio logic and liability-proof governance decisions.
8. Fields of application for supervisory boards
- Validation of management board proposals
- Transparent basis for decision-making
- Reduction of personal liability risks
- Objective discussion instead of political majorities
9. Classic consulting vs. decision intelligence

| Intuition | Calculation |
| Narrative | Optimization |
| Individual decisions | Portfolio Logic |
| Excel & Slides | Algorithmics |
Conclusion
Companies today do not fail due to a lack of knowledge, but due to excessive complexity.
StratePlan makes it possible for the first time, To calculate strategy at the level of reality - not to guess.
For CEOs, CFOs and supervisory boards, this means: No longer having to explain why they believe something, but can show why it is objectively the best decision.
This is not vision. This is operational decision-making intelligence.
