Process
A practical path from assessment to production.
Private AI fails when teams skip the hard questions: where data crosses boundaries, how retrieval quality is measured, how agents get permission to act, how workloads are operated, and who owns the system after launch. Our process turns those questions into decisions, artifacts, and implementation steps.
Detailed flow
Six steps from first review to operational handoff.
Each step clarifies one part of the path: risk, readiness, architecture, implementation, operations, or ongoing advisory support.
Clients can enter at any stage. We can assess a prototype, harden an existing platform, or scope implementation work that moves the system toward production readiness.
Planning
01
AI Infrastructure Review
A direct conversation about your AI goal, regulated constraints, data boundaries, current platform, and main production risk. We tell you honestly whether private AI infrastructure is the right problem to solve now.
30 min · No cost
02
Readiness Assessment
We map model hosting options, data movement, RAG architecture, agent permissions, Kubernetes readiness, observability, cost exposure, and Day-2 operations before implementation begins.
1–2 weeks
03
Architecture Blueprint
We define the platform shape, service boundaries, deployment model, permission model, and ownership path. Your team walks away with ADRs, diagrams, tradeoffs, and a scoped implementation sequence.
1–2 weeks
Execution
04
Implementation Support
We build or guide the critical infrastructure, APIs, RAG pipeline, agent controls, deployment automation, observability, and runbooks needed before the system can be operated with confidence.
Scoped
05
Operational Handoff
We document how the system is secured, monitored, debugged, upgraded, and owned, including alert ownership, failure modes, deployment expectations, and cost visibility.
Included
06
Advisory Support
Focused optimization and retained engineering review where the platform needs refinement after production exposure. Scoped to hardening, scaling, cost controls, agent workflows, and model-hosting changes.
Optional
Artifacts
What your team can leave with.
- Private AI risk memo with go / no-go recommendation and prioritized risks
- Data-flow and trust-boundary diagrams showing where prompts, documents, embeddings, responses, logs, and metadata can live
- Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) documenting model hosting, deployment topology, access boundaries, agent permissions, and operational ownership
- Detailed architecture diagrams for RAG, model serving, agent workflows, Kubernetes platform components, and integration points
- Implementation sequence with 30/60/90-day milestones, dependencies, owners, and decision checkpoints
- Deployment documentation covering environments, configuration, secrets, rollback, observability, and release expectations
- Runbooks for monitoring, incident response, upgrades, cost review, access changes, and Day-2 operations
- Advisory recommendations for remaining risks, future hardening, and platform evolution
