Services

Seventeen productised engagements across three tiers — headline AI, foundations, and accelerators — plus retainers and mentoring. Every one has a fixed scope, a fixed price, and a named senior architect. No pitch decks. No day-rate surprises.

Headline AI Services

What clients buy. The marketing front door.

Senior-led engagements that produce a strategy, a roadmap, a governance framework, or a programme architecture. These are the conversations that start with "we need to do AI properly" and end with a named architect in the room.

A 6–8 week senior-led engagement producing a sequenced, costed 12–24 month AI adoption roadmap — with named use cases, governance scaffolding, and a delivery operating model that survives board scrutiny.

3–5 use-case discovery workshops with prioritisation

What We Don't Do

Honesty saves everyone time

We say no to these things because saying yes would dilute what we're good at. If any of these is what you need, we'll tell you — and point you to someone who does it well. Full exclusions list →

Cloud migrations. Lift-and-shift, rehosting, datacentre exits.
Infrastructure. Servers, networking, VDI, on-prem anything.
Licence resale. Go to Insight, Softcat, Bytes.
White-label delivery. We don't deliver someone else's scope.
Sub-contractor fulfilment. We're not a body-shop for big consultancies.
AI ethics theatre. No workshops with no delivery component.
