Advisory & professional services

Expert guidance, from assessment to execution

Our advisors pair deep enterprise experience with the evum platform to move you from AI ambition to measurable outcomes — grounded in the evum AI Maturity Framework and anchored in ISO/IEC 42001 and the NIST AI RMF.

Who this is for

Built for the executives accountable for AI

Mid-market to enterprise organizations — 500 to 10,000 employees — actively spending on AI but lacking centralized visibility, governance, and compliance readiness.

CISO / Head of GRC

Pain: Rampantly growing shadow AI, lack of visibility into PII and IP exfiltration, regional data sovereignty violations.

Trigger: Upcoming regulatory audit deadlines (EU AI Act Article 50), internal compliance failures, or board-level transparency directives.

CTO / VP of Engineering

Pain: Decentralized tool adoption, lack of architectural standards, duplicate SaaS licenses, and unmonitored API credential sprawl.

Trigger: CFO mandates to reduce operating costs, upcoming software renewals, or platform consolidation initiatives.

Chief AI Officer (CAIO)

Pain: Demands to demonstrate ROI on AI investments, lack of standardized metrics, and extreme tool fragmentation.

Trigger: Board planning cycles, investor reviews, or the need to deploy a centralized, auditable system of record.

Engagement levels

A structured progression from discovery to transformation

AI Terrain Mapping & Assessment

  • AI spend and license consolidation analysis
  • CFO-ready cost rationalization report
  • Baseline evum registry, populated and live
4 weeks
