AI governance for federal programs.
Unclassified, and built for the public-sector clock. NIST AI RMF · EO 14179 · OMB M-25-21 · CMMC-aware · SAM.gov registered.

We help federal agencies, public-sector primes, and mission teams inventory, classify, govern, and secure AI use cases under the NIST AI RMF, EO 14179, and current OMB federal AI governance guidance (M-25-21), and we build the underlying systems too. This is the public-sector proof lane on the site: governance, private AI, and delivery support for unclassified work under a public-sector control model.

§00 Where buyers start.
Route by pressure, not by contract type alone.

Three ways a federal AI buyer usually enters.

Some buyers need governance language for a program already moving. Some need a tighter private or controlled deployment. Some need the data and AI system itself built with handoff intact. This page is meant to route those paths clearly, not just act like a static capability sheet. For the cross-sector view, see the regulated-industries comparison; for the boundary decision itself, read when federal AI needs a stronger private boundary.

Governance path

Federal AI Readiness Brief.

A fixed-scope first engagement for unclassified programs that need AI use-case inventory, NIST AI RMF risk classification, system and tool-boundary decisions, and a readiness roadmap that program, security, and procurement leads can defend. Typical starting range: $18,000-$30,000 for one program or workflow.

NIST AI RMF EO 14179 OMB M-25-21
Control-boundary path

Private AI and secure deployment for sensitive workloads.

Where the issue is model boundary, data handling, or supply-chain trust, we scope the private AI architecture, logging, access controls, and operational evidence for a stronger deployment posture without pretending every buyer needs a custom platform.

Private AI LLM security CMMC-aware
Delivery path

Data engineering and mission-facing AI delivery.

RAG systems, ingest pipelines, agent workflows, model serving, and the runbooks and handoff artifacts a federal operator or prime can actually maintain after transition.

§01 What we do.
Why us, specifically.

Federal AI governance and delivery, under public-sector controls.

Federal AI governance buyers speak a specific language: an AI use-case inventory, a Chief AI Officer structure, risk classification under the NIST AI RMF, and the readiness current OMB federal AI guidance (M-25-21) and EO 14179 ask of agency AI. We do that work on unclassified systems, and we build and secure the systems underneath it. Every line below is written to be scanned fast and verified later.

Core competencies

What we'll be on contract to do.

  • Production AI/ML system delivery. LLM applications, RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, multi-tenant SaaS, inference infrastructure.
  • AI security & red-team. Threat modeling for LLM/agent systems, prompt-injection & exfil testing, supply-chain risk on model + dataset provenance.
  • Federal AI governance. AI use-case inventory, Chief AI Officer support, risk classification under the NIST AI RMF, and OMB M-25-21 / M-25-22 / EO 14179 readiness for agency AI. Use policy + governance charter ship together. Unclassified.
  • Cloud-native data platforms. AWS-native: Bedrock, SageMaker, Lambda, ECS, Step Functions. Bring-your-cloud on request.
  • Federal data ingestion & intelligence. SAM.gov, FPDS, USAspending ingestion. MongoDB / pgvector buyer-maps and entity resolution.
  • Computer vision pipelines. Re-identification, surveillance, edge GPU deployments (OSNet, InsightFace, Docker on jetson/edge).
  • Cost-routed inference. LiteLLM routing across 5+ providers, with per-tenant cost ceilings and on-prem fallback.
  • Observability & runbooks. Per-tenant traces, logs, cost. Runbooks a Tier-1 operator can follow without us in the room.
Differentiators

Why a CO would pick a small firm.

  • Delivery-led. Technical operators stay accountable for the work, rather than handing it through a sales layer.
  • Focused surge model. Surge from a vetted contractor network when the scope requires it, with named roles and documented handoff.
  • Fixed-scope, fixed-fee. Quote in 48 hours. No T&M scope creep, no time-and-materials drift.
  • Verifiable on GitHub. Our work is in the open: six MCP servers in prod, upstream dask contributions, eval harness libraries.
  • Cleared-staff capable. Specific levels available on engagement basis. CMMC-aware delivery as the default.
  • Full IP transfer. No vendor lock. Every engagement ends with you owning the code, the docs, and the runbook.
§02 Past performance.
Anonymized where required.

Six engagements, with numbers attached.

Where we hold the contract or have permission to name the client, we do. Where we don't, the receipts are still verifiable on reference.

Why a small firm beats the body shop.

The same principal who answers the phone writes the architecture diagrams, attends the demos, and signs the runbook. There is no juniorization. Your contracting officer talks to the engineer.

§04 Vehicles & teaming.
How we get on contract.

Three routes onto your contract.

As a small firm we'll prime small contracts, subcontract on existing vehicles, or team with primes for larger scope. We also pursue OTAs and direct-to-mission engagements. The governance method is the same one we run commercially: see AI governance readiness and the public mcp-warden integrity gate.

Preferred vehicles · sub or team

Sub on existing.

We'll team with primes who already hold these. Strong partner network in each.

Send the RFI.
We'll respond in business hours.

A principal monitors this inbox. Expect a substantive response — not a marketing reply. If we're not a fit for the scope, we'll say so quickly and refer to a firm that is.
