Service Overview
Twenty eight percent of AI deployments deliver the return they promised and one in five fails outright (Gartner, April 2026). Gartner also expects 40 percent of enterprises to demote or decommission agents by 2027 after governance failures. The reason is the deployment order: use case first, foundation never. Each pilot becomes an island and nothing compounds. This service builds the foundation first: a governed agentic layer in core enterprise IT that builds, provisions, monitors and governs agents, so every agent inherits observability, scoped identity, orchestration boundaries, audit trail and compliance by design, an API or MCP interface and a specialist or operator agent in front of every system. Orchestrated specialists instead of one monolithic model. Then it answers the question most programmes skip: who operates hundreds of agents, and what does run versus change cost.
What's Included
- Foundation blueprint: governed agentic layer, orchestration, persistent state, domain constraints, observability
- Agent operating model: run versus change split, ownership, model lifecycle discipline (a vendor model version is a release, tested before production, never auto adopted)
- Autonomy tiering with proportional controls (observe, advise, act with approval, act) and non human identity design
- Scaling roadmap and first governed use case in enterprise IT operations, pilot to production
- Agent readiness assessment: data, integration, identity and access, audit trail, cost
What you get
- A foundation every agent inherits
- Controls per autonomy level
- An operating model for the agent fleet
- One live, governed use case
Format
Two stages: readiness assessment first, then foundation blueprint and first governed use case. Each stage priced on its own.
