90-Day AX Loop
One full cycle · On request
For whom
Mid-market companies starting their first AX cycle. Teams that want a working loop to inherit, not a deck to file. A full pass through all four stages.

Cycle
Four full loops per year. Conditions never freeze.
Includes
1–2 days per week embedded
Quarterly board memo (4 / year)
AI Strategy refreshed each loop
Orchestrator operated + governance maintained

If you only need one piece.
Sometimes a company needs just the strategy. Or just the governance. Or just the pattern read. The full Loop is best — but a single component is a real option, especially for PE-backed portcos with sharper, narrower mandates.
AI Strategy
A pattern-based AI strategy for your sector. Read the Pattern Library, run the Match against your sandbox, produce a board-ready strategy document. No Build phase, no orchestrator — just the strategy.
→ A one-page memo the board can read in five minutes and act on at the next meeting.
Pattern Library Sprint
A focused read of 10–20 companies that already shipped AI in your shape of business. Sector, scale, ownership model, regulatory environment. No strategy, no build — just the patterns, written up.
Maps to Read · ≈ 2–3 weeks
AI Governance
AI Council design, a one-page policy your CFO can sign, escalation paths, and the orchestrator framework — without the full strategy pass. For companies that already know what they want to do and need the rails to do it safely.
Maps to Build · Governance + Orchestrator · ≈ 4–6 weeks
Sandbox Audit
A diagnostic of your six constraint layers — information, departments, legal, culture, history, future. Maps where AI can be deployed safely and where it will quietly break things. Often run before an internal AI rollout.

For mid-market companies, roughly $100M–$1B in revenue. PE portfolio engagements available — single fund deployment across multiple holdings, with shared Pattern Library across portcos. All engagement pricing on request.
Five deliverables, sequenced.
Five outputs, each enabling the next. Together they form your AI Operating Model — bespoke to your sandbox, anchored to NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, and the EU AI Act.
01
AI Charter "What we follow."
A one-page corporate AI constitution. Purpose, Scope, Principles, Approved & Prohibited Tools, Data Rules, Do/Don't, Grey-Zone Path, Incident & Update. The CFO can sign it. The new hire reads it on Day 1.
02
Council Guide "Who decides, how."
The two-layer governance structure that operates the Charter. AI Council (8–12 senior decision-makers) plus Office of Responsible AI (3–5 operators). Decision rights, RACI, quarterly cadence, sunset criteria. Benchmarked against Microsoft, IBM, Mastercard, and Anthropic governance models.
03
30/90/180 Roadmap "When, in what order."
Foundation (30 days) → Pilot (90 days) → Scale (180 days). Stages advance on graduation criteria, not calendar deadlines. Easy → Middle → Hard department sequencing. Quick wins designed deliberately unglamorous — staying power over showy openings.
04
Data Risk Matrix "What goes where, by tier."
Charter §5 turned into a working enforcement matrix. Four data tiers plus special tags. Detection automated, response 60 minutes by a human. Classification drafted in a 90-minute workshop by the data-owning department — not by IT.
05
Standards Mapping "Aligned to what."
A 66-point gap analysis showing how the four deliverables above align with NIST AI RMF (24 pts), ISO/IEC 42001 (30 pts), and EU AI Act (12 pts). Treated as operating tools, not certification chase. Three frameworks read as complementary — 6-month baseline, 12-month operating, 18-month+ optional certification.
