Generative AI Consulting
Use cases chosen for value, models chosen for the job, and guardrails built in, so generative AI reaches production and stays there.
Generative AI consulting takes an organization from candidate ideas to working systems: selecting use cases worth building, grounding them in governed data, choosing between frontier APIs and self-hosted models, building guardrails, and deploying to production with measurement attached. Most generative AI programs stall between the demo and the deployment, usually on data access, security review, or a use case that never had a business case. BD Emerson runs delivery and governance as one engagement: the same firm that builds the retrieval pipeline writes the AI policy that lets it pass review. Roadmaps are sized against your data and your risk tolerance, which is why they survive contact with production.
Value, data availability, and risk class are testable before any code is written. The workshop output is a ranked backlog with an owner and a number attached to each item.
Retrieval and fine-tuning run on data with known lineage and enforced permissions. Ungoverned data is the most common reason generative AI fails security review.
Filters, injection defenses, human checkpoints, and full logging go in before launch, and never after the first incident. Controls are designed together with the policy that governs them.
Every use case reports cost and quality against its business case. The portfolio compounds because weak items are cut early and winning ones get further investment.
One firm builds the system and writes the governance that approves it. There is no handoff between an AI boutique and a compliance shop, and no rework when the two disagree.
We compare frontier, open-weight, and routed hybrid options on cost per task, and we hold no reseller margin on any model, so the recommendation follows your numbers.
Roadmaps are scoped against your actual data quality and security posture, so pilots either reach production or die cheaply on evidence instead of living on as permanent proofs of concept.

We had a hard time finding the right company to partner with in support of our compliance journey. Some vendors sell the idea that they do the work, but then you end up doing everything. The ambiguity is what killed our last project. BD Emerson’s team has such great technical knowledge and understands the standard so well that they made us comfortable with moving fast. This has led to us closing major enterprise customers that were previously out of reach because of security and compliance.
Lead an enterprise initiative to overhaul the organization's technology stack from ecommerce, corporate tech, and corporate security.
Supported ISO 42001 exercise and served as internal auditor.
Rubrik's privacy and compliance team began with the backbone of BD Emerson. BD Emerson supported building out the privacy program, GRC (ISO 27001, SOC 2, CMMC, FedRAMP), and the appsec function.
We needed a partner who could move quickly, without sacrificing precision. BD Emerson brought the expertise, structure, and speed we were looking for. Their team became an extension of ours, embedding themselves across the organization, guiding us step by step, and giving us confidence in areas we hadn’t tackled before. The internal audit they conducted was so detailed that even the external auditors called it out. Achieving ISO 27001 with zero nonconformities says everything you need to know about the quality of the partnership.
