Forward Deployed AI Assessment
Our AI Assessment embeds an Innovative Forward Deployed Engineer in your environment to evaluate your readiness for Generative AI — and prove it with a working proof of concept.
Assess, validate, and deploy with an engineer in the field
A Forward Deployed Engineer doesn’t hand you a slide deck and walk away. They embed with your team, learn your systems, and build a working proof of concept. The assessment is fast, the POC is real, and the recommendations come from someone who actually ran the code — not someone who theorized about it.
Discovery Workshop
Conducting GenAI business strategy, use case discovery, and data readiness workshop — led by your embedded FDE
Proof of Concept
Building a proof of concept on a mutually selected use case — deployed by the same engineer who assessed it
Deployment Roadmap
Delivering findings, recommendations, and a clear path to production — including a proposal for continued FDE engagement
What You Can Expect
Discovery Workshop
Your Forward Deployed Engineer will lead a structured workshop to understand your business objectives, data landscape, and strategic priorities. This isn’t a consultant reading a questionnaire — it’s an engineer who will be building your POC, asking the questions that actually matter for implementation.
What is covered during this phase:
- GenAI landscape review
- Current-state technology evaluation
- AI data readiness assessment
- Use case identification and prioritization
Proof of Concept
Your FDE builds and validates a proof of concept around the selected use case, leveraging your data where feasible. Because the same engineer who ran discovery is writing the code, there’s no translation loss between “what we learned” and “what we built.” The POC demonstrates real-world viability — not a demo, not a sandbox.
What is covered during this phase:
- POC on a mutually selected use case
- Utilizing your data where possible
- Deployed by your embedded FDE
Deployment Roadmap
Your FDE delivers comprehensive findings and a clear path forward. Because they’ve been in your environment, the recommendations are grounded in what they actually found, not assumptions. The roadmap includes a proposal for continued engagement through an FDE-led project, so the engineer who already knows your environment can keep building.
What is covered during this phase:
- Comprehensive implementation proposal
- Recommendations and justification of proposed approach
- Business case and ROI projections
- Technical requirements and resource needs
- Timeline, risks, and expected outcomes
- Customer sign-off and acceptance
Key Benefits
01
Engineer-Led, Not Consultant-Led
Your assessment is conducted by the same engineer who will build your POC. No hand-offs, no translation loss, no surprises.
02
Proven Methodology
Structured assessment framework designed specifically for GenAI readiness evaluation — refined across over hundreds of AI deployments.
03
Real-World Proof
Hands-on proof of concept with a selected use case. Not a theoretical exercise — a working solution you can evaluate.
04
Built for What Comes Next
The assessment is designed to flow directly into an FDE-led project engagement. Your FDE already knows your environment. They keep building.
