Service FAQs

We evaluate internal data pools, process redundancy, and expected ROI bounds. We target manual bottlenecks—such as unstructured document extraction or data parsing loops—where isolated model integrations drop operational friction quickly.

We deliver both approaches. Depending on processing prerequisites and resource profiles, we balance top-tier foundational model configurations (such as OpenAI, Azure AI, or Anthropic) with securely fine-tuned localized open weights architectures.

Sensitive data never leaves your governed environment without explicit controls. We deploy private inference endpoints, redaction and tokenisation layers, and full audit logging — keeping every integration aligned with GDPR and your internal data-handling policies.

Our practicing engineering architects hold certifications across Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure environments, handling complex hybrid data migrations and secure multi-cloud cluster structures.

We utilize a multi-phase technical roadmap. By implementing staging components, persistent memory sync layers, and orchestrating transition cuts during off-peak traffic zones, platform runtime integrity is sustained with zero disruption.

We embed FinOps practices from day one — right-sizing instances, auto-scaling policies, reserved-capacity planning, and tagging for cost attribution. Clients receive clear dashboards so cloud spend stays predictable and tied directly to business value.

Our assessments align perfectly with ISO 27001 parameters, Cyber Essentials Plus controls, and modern NIST baseline profiles, generating an exhaustive audit review of system weak points.

We completely remove internal network trust assumptions. By installing granular micro-segmentation, rigid context-aware authorization loops, and minimal structural access profiles, lateral compromise risk is fully mitigated.

For retained clients we operate defined incident-response runbooks with rapid escalation paths, containment playbooks, and forensic logging already in place. This lets us isolate affected systems, preserve evidence, and restore safe operations in the shortest possible window.

We cover permanent and contract IT placements across the full stack — from niche specialists in AI, cloud, and security to executive and leadership technology hires. Every candidate is matched on culture, capability, and ambition, not just a keyword on a CV.

Each candidate passes through structured technical skills assessment and reference vetting before reaching you. We benchmark hands-on ability against the real demands of the role, so the shortlist you receive is genuinely qualified and ready to deliver.

Pricing scales with scope. As a guide: a Diagnostic Technical Summary runs £1,500–£3,500; defined-scope cloud migrations £12k–£35k; AI strategy and LLM integration £18k–£60k (time-and-materials based); zero-trust security implementations £10k–£40k; and fractional architecture retainers £8k–£20k per month. Exact figures are confirmed after a discovery call and in writing before any work begins. Full detail lives on our services pricing section.

We offer capped time-and-materials and fixed-fee options on every engagement, each with a clear not-to-exceed cap agreed upfront. There are no hidden overages — you always know the ceiling before work starts.
