We align AI, infrastructure, and commercial strategy into one disciplined operating model, wrapping probabilistic systems in deterministic governance so AI remains a controlled dependency, not an autonomous authority.

Most AI initiatives fail not because the technology doesn’t work, but because the organisation has no operating model for it. We define the mandate, architect the systems, establish governance, and scale what delivers measurable commercial outcomes.

Our Method

From diagnostic
to disciplined scale.

01 Diagnose

Audit existing technology landscape, AI readiness, data maturity, and organisational capability. Identify where AI creates real leverage versus expensive noise.

02 Architect

Design the AI operating model: systems architecture, integration points, data pipelines, and the governance framework that keeps it commercially accountable.

03 Govern

Establish permission boundaries, cost controls, escalation paths, and compliance frameworks. Ensure AI systems meet regulatory requirements before they scale.

04 Scale

Deploy production systems, measure commercial impact, iterate based on performance data, and build internal capability so the organisation outgrows us.

Capabilities

Strategic AI leadership
across the full mandate.

AI Strategy & Governance

Board-level mandate definition. AI investment prioritisation. Risk frameworks covering the EU AI Act, data protection, and operational compliance. Governance that boards can actually use.

GenAI System Design

Production-grade GenAI deployments using LLM APIs, prompt orchestration, and MCP-driven workflows. Real systems in live commercial environments, not proofs of concept.

Revenue Architecture

Demand systems, conversion frameworks, and margin optimisation. AI-driven lead qualification, dynamic pricing, and customer interaction systems that directly impact the P&L.

Compliance & Assurance

GDPR, ISO 27001/9001, EU AI Act readiness, and operational compliance at executive level. AI governance frameworks that satisfy regulators and protect the organisation.

Board & NED Advisory

Independent AI governance advice for boards navigating seven-figure technology investments. Translation of technical capability into decisions the board can actually make.

Intelligent Infrastructure

Platform architecture, automation pipelines, analytics integration, and scalable cloud foundations. The operational backbone that makes AI systems reliable enough to trust.

Who This Is For

Built for leaders who need AI to work, not just exist.

We work with organisations where AI is a board-level priority and failure has material consequences. If you need a PowerPoint about AI, we’re not the right fit. If you need AI deployed, governed, and delivering ROI — we should talk.

Principal

Jamie Easterman

Founder & Fractional Chief AI Officer

30 years building, scaling, and governing technology at enterprise level. Founded one of the UK’s earliest digital infrastructure and SaaS businesses in 1996, scaled it through a 23-year advisory relationship with KPMG, multinational deployments for Amazon across four countries, and high-stakes platforms for the NHS, Royal British Legion, and FIFA, and exited through acquisition.

Now designs, builds, and operates production GenAI systems in live commercial environments wrapping LLM APIs, prompt orchestration, and MCP-driven workflows in deterministic governance layers. The rare combination of someone who has sat in the boardroom and helped CEOs and Boards make seven-figure investment decisions and can still architect the system that delivers on them.
