Enterprise AI Consulting: Avoid the €100K Project That Fails
87% of AI projects never reach production. The difference: strategy before code. Maturity assessment, ROI-driven roadmaps, and EU AI Act + GDPR compliance from day one.
Service Deliverables
What you receive. Executable, not theoretical.
Eternal Pilot vs Strategy to Production
The problem with the approach you know.
The failed pattern: "let's do a pilot and see what happens". 6 months later: impressive demo that can't scale, data not ready for production, and zero organizational accountability. Our approach: strategy first, quick wins that demonstrate value, and roadmap to production from the start.
Executive Summary
For Leadership.
AI consulting has immediate ROI: avoiding a €100K+ failed project pays for the investment several times over. Complete phase of 6-8 weeks with executable deliverables.
Requirement: executive sponsor for AI initiatives. Main risk: organizational resistance to change. EU AI Act and GDPR compliance by design with servers in Europe.
Technical Summary
For the CTO.
Comprehensive assessment: data maturity (quality, access, governance), reference architecture for MLOps, EU AI Act risk classification per system.
Model selection framework (build vs buy vs API). Cloud/on-premise infrastructure evaluation. Servers in Europe for sensitive data.
Is It For You?
AI consulting makes sense for strategic AI initiatives.
Who it's for
- Organizations evaluating strategic AI initiatives needing a roadmap.
- Companies with strict EU AI Act and GDPR compliance requirements.
- Leadership (CEO, CDO, CTO) seeking to avoid eternal pilot projects without ROI.
- Corporations with multiple AI use cases requiring prioritization.
- Businesses in regulated sectors (finance, healthcare, legal) where governance is mandatory.
Who it's not for
- Early-stage startups needing to move fast without exhaustive compliance.
- Small-scope projects where consulting doesn't make economic sense.
- Teams with internal AI expertise who only need development.
- If you're looking for immediate implementation without a prior strategy phase.
- Organizations without an executive sponsor for AI initiatives.

Executive Questions
What Leadership asks.
What risks do I face if I don't comply with EU AI Act?
Fines can reach 6% of global revenue or €35 million. But the real risk is operational: systems classified as high risk without proper documentation can be banned. Our governance framework ensures compliance by design.
How do I classify my AI systems under EU AI Act?
The regulation defines four levels: unacceptable risk (prohibited), high risk (strict requirements), limited risk (transparency), and minimal risk (no obligations). We evaluate each use case and document classification with valid legal evidence.
Where is data processed and stored?
Servers in Europe, always. We guarantee full GDPR compliance. For clients with additional requirements, we deploy on their own European cloud infrastructure.
Do I need consulting if I already have a data science team?
It depends. If your team successfully takes projects to production, maybe not. But most data science teams are excellent at models and weak on governance, change management, and business alignment.
What happens after consulting?
Three options: 1) Your team implements with our roadmap, 2) We implement the prioritized projects, 3) We oversee third-party implementation. Prior consulting makes any option 40% faster.
Do you work with international companies?
Yes, we're AI consultants with 15+ years of experience. We work with clients across Europe and the Americas. Video conference meetings available.
How do you guarantee the ROI of consulting?
Deliverables include business cases with calculated ROI for each initiative. If none has positive ROI, you'll know before spending €100K. That alone is ROI.
What documentation do I need for EU AI Act audits?
For high-risk systems: conformity assessment, technical documentation, activity logs, quality management system, and human oversight. Our framework includes complete templates validated by legal experts.
Roadmap or Experiment?
Executive Alignment Session. We define if your use case has real ROI before investing in development. EU AI Act compliance verified. No commitment.
