One foundation. Four tiers. No governance upsell.

Every paid tier ships the same enterprise core — Policy-as-code, Zero Trust identity, Service Catalog, Stack Framework, multi-cloud inventory and two automation connectors. Tiers differ by breadth of environment, not by whether you get governance.

Pricing is quoted per environment after a short scoping conversation — cloud footprint, toolchain breadth and deployment model.

Always included

The non-negotiable enterprise core

This is the production-grade baseline in every tier at no extra charge. Governance is not a module you buy later.

Governance & Zero Trust
  • Policy-as-code enforcement with approval gating at every execution step
  • Immutable audit logging and full execution lineage
  • OIDC / SAML SSO with enterprise identity provider federation
  • Fine-grained RBAC and just-in-time execution access
  • Multi-tenant isolation with hard and soft security boundaries
  • Environment segmentation — Dev, Test and Prod as distinct execution contexts
Automation & inventory
  • Unified Service Catalog with versioned, parameterised automation services
  • Stack Definition Framework with multi-step dependency sequencing
  • Multi-cloud inventory — AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI
  • Kubernetes inventory — OpenShift, RKE2 and managed clusters
  • BYO automation — Ansible, Terraform and CI/CD ingested as catalog items
  • Two automation connectors included in every tier

Built by us. Delivered by us.

The engineers who wrote the connector framework write your connector. No partner hand-off, no gap between what was scoped and what gets built. Standalone engagements or multi-phase programmes, scoped to your environment.

01

Foundation Onboarding

Platform deployment and configuration so your environment is production-ready from day one.

  • Platform deployment and infrastructure configuration
  • Enterprise IdP and SSO integration
  • RBAC design and role hierarchy mapping
  • Initial Service Catalog build and template publishing
  • Automation connector configuration and validation
02

Automation Library Migration

Move an existing automation estate into the governed catalog — at scale, without a rewrite. Hundreds of playbooks, modules and pipelines rationalised, deduplicated and published as versioned catalog items.

  • Discovery and inventory of the existing estate across repos, runners and shared drives
  • Deduplication and rationalisation — the four playbooks that do the same thing become one
  • Parameterisation and input validation for every migrated artifact
  • Ansible, Terraform, PowerShell, Bash and CI pipeline ingestion
  • Execution boundary and policy attachment applied at ingestion
  • Cutover plan and parallel-run validation before the old path is retired
03

Custom Integration Engineering

Connectors for the systems that make your environment yours. If it has an API, an agent or a database, it can become a governed catalog target.

  • Custom connector development against the platform integration SDK
  • Legacy and in-house system integration — mainframe, proprietary ITSM, internal CMDBs
  • Inventory schema extension for resource types unique to your estate
  • Bi-directional sync design with conflict and reconciliation handling
  • Connector test harness, versioning and upgrade path
  • Handover documentation so your team can maintain or extend it
04

Complex Automation Development

Multi-system, stateful workflows that no single engine handles cleanly — the ones currently living in a runbook nobody wants to own.

  • Multi-engine Stack authoring with dependency sequencing and conditional branching
  • Long-running and stateful workflows with checkpointing and safe resume
  • Cross-system orchestration spanning cloud, Kubernetes, database and network tiers
  • Failure-path and compensating-action design — what happens at step 7 of 9
  • Approval topology and policy gate design for high-blast-radius operations
  • Load and failure testing before production promotion
05

Custom Agent Development

Purpose-built agents for your domain, operating inside the same policy boundary as everything else.

  • Domain-specific agent design — your runbooks, your terminology, your escalation rules
  • MCP server development exposing your internal systems as agent-callable tools
  • RAG corpus construction from your architecture docs, runbooks and post-incident reviews
  • LangGraph workflow authoring for multi-step reasoning and tool use
  • Model selection and tuning — Claude, Bedrock, OpenAI, watsonx or a private model
  • Agent evaluation harness with regression tests against known scenarios
06

AI & AIOps Enablement

Operationalise the agentic layer — telemetry normalisation through agent configuration and diagnostic playbooks.

  • Telemetry normalisation and AI data lake configuration
  • Diagnostic playbook development and catalog publishing
  • Elastic, Splunk and Datadog observability pipeline integration
  • Agent tuning for RCA, anomaly detection and NLQ workflows
  • Agentic workflow design for SRE and operations use cases
07

Compliance Sprint

Configure and validate against regulated-industry frameworks, cutting audit preparation and manual evidence gathering.

  • CIS benchmark automation and configuration validation
  • CNAPP posture workflow development and catalog delivery
  • FedRAMP, HIPAA and PCI-DSS pack configuration
  • Evidence collection automation for audit readiness
  • Continuous compliance validation pipeline setup
08

Managed Platform Operations

Ongoing operation of the control plane, for teams who want the capability without the headcount.

  • Platform upgrades, patching and connector maintenance
  • Catalog curation and template lifecycle management
  • Policy pack maintenance as your compliance obligations change
  • Quarterly automation health and cost governance review
  • Named technical contact and escalation path
Fit

Who this is built for

P

Primary — regulated enterprise

Financial services, healthcare, government and energy. Typically 3+ cloud accounts, 5+ Kubernetes clusters, 50+ database instances, with live compliance obligations.

S

Secondary — mid-market modernisation

Organisations accelerating cloud transformation, rationalising fragmented automation toolchains, or consolidating infrastructure estates post-M&A.

D

Deployment model fit

Customer-managed for air-gapped or sovereign environments. SaaS for teams minimising operational overhead. Hybrid for an isolated data plane with a managed control plane.
