+ Forward-Deployed Services

From AI ambition to
AI execution.

The experimentation era is over. We embed full-stack, forward-deployed teams

inside enterprises to close the gap between AI strategy and shipped, measurable business impact.

 

SETTING THE STAGE

Every enterprise is
in the middle of the
same transformation.

It is reshaping more than tooling. It runs through the operating model, and the lines that used to separate software, services, and staffing are dissolving.

THE STATE OF ENTERPRISE AI

The pilots have been run.
The platforms have been
bought. That era is over.

78%

of enterprises now use AI in at least one business function.

~80%

report no meaningful enterprise-wide business impact.

42%

abandoned most AI initiatives in 2025 — up from just 17% the year before.

Leaders aren't asking what's possible anymore. They want to know where the gains are.

The organizations seeing real results aren't running more experiments. They're aligning strategy, technology, operations, and talent around one question: how does work actually change with AI?

Curious how an embedded FDE turns your AI strategy into shipped outcomes?

THE ANSWER

Enter the Forward-

Deployed Engineer.

The consulting playbook was built for multi-year transformation

programs, roadmap design, and slow delivery cycles. The forward-deployed model is built for outcomes.

Group 15

Close the value realization gap

Move directly from problem to shipped, measured outcome, not another deck.

rayo

Speed legacy models can't match

Embedded teams compress the relay of traditional delivery into days.

Group 19-1

Aligned to how you pay for value

Outcome-based engagement that maps to business impact, not billable hours.

729%
growth in FDE job postings YoY, with strategic alliances signed every week.
65%
of enterprise buyers now prefer outcome-based pricing over time & materials.

WHY AN ACELLERATION NOW?

Understanding the problem and solving it

used to be two different jobs. Not anymore.

AI has made it possible for one person

to do what used to take a relay of five.
