First Engagement

AI Platform Readiness Sprint

A focused 1–2 week technical assessment that maps your current AI usage, cloud environment, risks, architecture options, cost controls, and implementation roadmap.

Before Building

Before building an AI platform, understand what needs to be controlled

Many organizations are already using AI, but few have a clear view of the infrastructure, security, governance, and cost implications.

The Readiness Sprint helps answer

  • ?Which teams are using AI today?
  • ?Which tools and models are being used?
  • ?Where could sensitive data be exposed?
  • ?Which cloud platforms should be involved?
  • ?Is an AI gateway needed?
  • ?What should be logged?
  • ?How should usage and costs be attributed?
  • ?What is required before moving AI into production?
  • ?Which architecture should be built first?

Fit

Who this sprint is for

This engagement is designed for companies that:

  • Have AI pilots but no production architecture
  • Are concerned about shadow AI usage
  • Need secure model access across teams
  • Want to build internal AI assistants or RAG systems
  • Need better AI cost visibility
  • Use AWS, Azure, GCP, or private infrastructure
  • Need a technical roadmap for governed AI adoption
  • Want to prepare for GDPR and EU AI Act expectations

Scope

What is included

01

Current-state discovery

Review current AI usage, cloud environments, teams, data flows, and existing controls.

02

Cloud and infrastructure review

Assess AWS, Azure, GCP, private infrastructure, identity, networking, logging, and deployment readiness.

03

Security and data risk assessment

Identify sensitive data risks, uncontrolled access patterns, missing audit trails, and governance gaps.

04

AI access architecture

Define whether the company needs an AI gateway, model routing, provider abstraction, quotas, and policy controls.

05

Cost control review

Assess AI usage visibility, cost attribution, token spend, provider selection, and FinOps requirements.

06

Target architecture

Create a practical architecture direction for secure AI adoption across the relevant cloud and private environments.

07

Implementation roadmap

Prioritize the next steps into a clear roadmap that technical and leadership teams can act on.

Outputs

Why Here First

Why start with a readiness sprint?

A readiness sprint reduces risk before implementation begins.

Instead of building another isolated AI pilot, your team gets a clear view of the architecture, controls, cost model, and implementation sequence needed for secure AI adoption.

The sprint can lead naturally into

  • Multi-Cloud AI Gateway MVP
  • Secure RAG Platform Foundation
  • AI FinOps & Cost Control Audit
  • Private AI / Hybrid Inference Deployment
  • Managed AI Platform Operations

Get a clear roadmap for secure AI adoption
