What changes when it is government & public sector

Sometimes the recommendation is to buy, not build. We say so, including when it means less work for us.

In government & public sector, procurement, data sovereignty and accessibility obligations shape the architecture before anything else. That single fact reshapes how ai readiness assessment has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.

The workload we are most often asked to take on first is records digitisation, usually integrated against grievance platforms. Every engagement opens with a measurement: the cycle time, the cost per transaction, or the error rate we are being asked to move.

Multi-model by default, so a provider outage is a routing decision rather than an incident. You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

Questions from this sector

Can AI systems be procured under GeM?

Yes, and we structure deliverables to fit standard procurement categories and evaluation criteria.

Does it work in regional languages?

It has to. Public services in India are multilingual by obligation, and we build for that rather than adding translation later.

How long does it take?

Two weeks for a focused assessment, four for a large multi-business-unit organisation. Longer than that and the findings start going stale before anyone acts on them.

What do we get at the end?

A scored use-case inventory, a data readiness verdict per use case, build-or-buy recommendations, and a sequenced roadmap with effort estimates you can budget against.

Will you recommend yourselves for the build?

Only where it fits. A fair share of our assessments recommend buying an existing product, and we say so plainly.
