Proof of work, not pitch decks.

Anonymized case studies from real engagements in regulated environments. Every metric is from delivered work. Sanitized excerpts of the operating documents we ship are below.

Eight AI applications, three phases, one governance framework

Designed and built a governed AI portfolio across executive intelligence, commercial operations, GRC, finance, competitive strategy, regulatory science, governance, and operations. Each application passed formal AI Council review before production deployment.

Zero to an executive control plane in four weeks

Built the complete AI governance operating model (charter, ethos & principles, intake & discovery guardrails, risk tiering model, governance review checklist, and lifecycle management) into a single executive control plane shipped in four weeks.

Full ownership transfer and no retainers — standard on every engagement.

The documents, up close.

Four genres of operating artifact — charter, tier matrix, debt ledger, evidence map — at reading distance. Each ships wired into a review cadence or a build pipeline, and each is shown as delivered, minus the client’s name.

How to use

Every system that performs inference is tagged in the build pipeline with a tier. Tiers above T1 must produce the corresponding evidence packet before promotion to production. CI fails closed when missing.

AI Risk Tier Matrix

A four-tier reference that maps system risk to required controls, review depth, and approver. Wired to the build pipeline so deployment gates fail closed without it.

Operability Debt Ledger

Tracks the gap between policy and production across four pillars. Promotion gates fail closed when debt exceeds threshold. The lever that turns governance from theatre into a shipping artifact.
