Data & AI Systems Engineering

AI that ships to production, not AI theater

We build AI-enabled systems that improve real workflows — with governance, accountability, and clear ownership from day one.

Where you start

Different starting lines. The same production-first delivery model.

Establish foundational AI fluency

Your team needs to understand AI before you can govern it. Big Impact Group delivers structured learning workshops that build practical AI literacy — so leaders and operators make informed decisions, not reactive ones.

Assess AI readiness

You have AI pressure from the board but no clear path from prototype to production. You need to understand what is possible, what is safe, and what to do first.

Build AI into existing systems

You have specific workflows where AI can reduce manual effort or improve decisions. You need integration that is governed, monitored, and production-ready.

Fix ungoverned AI

AI experiments are running without controls. You need governance, evaluation criteria, and accountability before something breaks.

Strategic Partnership

Delivery meets Strategy.
No gaps. No handoffs.

We’ve partnered with Big Impact Group to solve the disconnect between "AI strategy" and "AI engineering." They define the governance and value; we build the systems that deliver it.

  • System delivery & integration
  • Data pipelines & architecture
  • MLOps & observability
  • Production accountability

  • AI strategy & prioritization
  • Model design & evaluation
  • Governance frameworks
  • Change management
One unified delivery team

AI pressure without operational readiness

The board wants AI. Competitors claim AI capabilities. But there is no governance, no data foundation, and no clear path from prototype to production. Every shortcut creates risk that compounds.

AI experiments run without controls. Prototypes never reach production. When they do, nobody has defined what the system should refuse, when it should escalate, or who is accountable when it fails.

What we deliver

AI systems engineering with production accountability at every layer.

AI opportunity and workflow assessment

Identify where AI reduces manual effort or improves decisions. Separate viable use cases from AI theater based on data readiness and operational impact.

Data pipelines and AI-ready architecture

Build the data foundation that AI systems require. Storage, quality, governance, and pipelines designed for production use — not prototyping.

Vector DB

AI integration into platforms and CMS

Connect AI capabilities to existing platforms, content systems, and operational workflows. Integration that is governed, monitored, and production-ready.

MLOps, monitoring, and lifecycle management

Model monitoring, versioning, retraining, and lifecycle management. Production-grade from the start — no prototype-to-production shortcuts.

Security, compliance, and governance

Data privacy, access controls, audit readiness, and regulatory alignment. Guardrails and escalation rules defined before deployment.

Delivery principles

Production-grade from the start. Governed at every layer.

Controls before code

Every AI capability ships with a controls brief: what it does, what it does not do, when it escalates, and who is accountable.

Production-grade from the start

No prototype-to-production shortcuts. MLOps, monitoring, and governance are built in from the beginning.

Clear accountability

InGen owns system delivery. Big Impact Group owns strategy and governance. The client knows who is responsible for what.

Data quality first

AI systems are only as good as the data. We assess and fix data foundations before building AI on top.

Measurable outcomes

Every AI capability has defined success metrics before deployment, not after.

Engagements & Typical Ranges

Typical ranges shown. Final pricing depends on scope, data access, and compliance requirements.

Sustained AI system evolution, monitoring, and governance.

What changes

  • Manual effort reduced
  • Decision latency reduced
  • Adoption of AI features
  • Stability and uptime of AI-enabled systems

Why this feels different

We do not sell AI workshops or strategy decks. We build AI systems that reach production with governance, monitoring, and clear accountability.

Controls before code
Production accountability from day one
Clear ownership at every layer

Who this is for

  • CTOs and CDOs with AI pressure from the board but no clear production path
  • VP Engineering teams integrating AI into existing platforms and workflows
  • Organizations that need AI governance before or alongside AI delivery
  • Leaders who have had AI experiments fail to reach production

Who this is not for

  • Organizations looking for AI strategy workshops without system delivery
  • Teams that want a chatbot demo without production accountability
  • Buyers who expect AI results without governance investment
