| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for internal knowledge work |
| Capability | Research and writing stays visible to adjacent teams through Custom GPTs |
Story
Glencore grew internal knowledge work faster than the local tools around it. From Switzerland, materials teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Knowledge workers were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Custom GPTs put research and writing on OpenAI. OpenAI develops foundation models and ChatGPT Enterprise, used by companies to build assistants, analyze documents, and speed knowledge work. Glencore keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so knowledge workers do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier research and writing. Internal knowledge work is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join knowledge workers without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
