The AI Act is in effect.
Is your company ready?

87% of European companies are not compliant with the AI Act. Fines go up to €35M or 7% of global revenue. Beyond compliance, without a structured AI strategy, your scattered initiatives burn budget without generating value.

AI without strategy is burned budget

Do you recognize yourself in any of these situations? If so, you're not alone -- but it's time to act.

🛠

AI projects launched at random

A chatbot POC here, a data pilot there. Each department launches its own initiatives without coordination. Result: 70% of AI projects fail before production. This isn't a technology problem, it's a strategy and prioritization problem.

⚠️

Shadow AI is spreading silently

Your teams use ChatGPT, Copilot, Midjourney... without any framework. Confidential data ends up in unsecured prompts. Business decisions are made based on unverified outputs. The legal, reputational, and operational risk is real and growing every day.

📜

The AI Act exposes you

The European AI regulation is in effect. Risk classification, transparency obligations, AI system registry, impact assessment... Requirements are precise and penalties dissuasive. Most companies haven't even started inventorying their AI systems.

Our approach in 4 steps

From blank page to an operational governance framework. No 200-slide PowerPoints -- actionable deliverables.

01

AI maturity audit

360-degree evaluation of your organization: inventory of existing AI systems (including shadow AI), data maturity, skills, culture, decision-making processes. We measure where you really are, not where you think you are.

Deliverable: AI maturity score + risk mapping
02

Strategy and roadmap

Identification of high-ROI use cases aligned with your business objectives. Prioritization by impact, feasibility, and risk. Building a 12-18 month roadmap with clear milestones and measurable success criteria.

Deliverable: Prioritized AI roadmap + detailed business cases
03

Governance framework

Deployment of a complete governance framework: AI committee, roles and responsibilities, validation processes, usage policies, system registry, ethical framework. AI Act compliant from day one.

Deliverable: AI charter + policies + system registry
04

Trust Layer and compliance

Implementation of the trust layer: human oversight, decision explainability, bias auditing, data protection, European sovereignty. Impact assessment for each high-risk AI system.

Deliverable: AI Act compliance file + maintenance plan

What you get

A complete strategic and regulatory framework to deploy AI with confidence. Not an audit that ends up in a drawer.

🎯

Prioritized AI roadmap

A 12-18 month roadmap with use cases ranked by ROI, feasibility, and risk. Each initiative has a quantified business case and an identified sponsor.

🛡

Full AI Act compliance

System registry, risk classification, impact assessments, technical documentation. Everything needed to be compliant without regulatory paralysis.

🔒

Operational Trust Layer

Human oversight, decision explainability, bias auditing, technical guardrails. The trust layer that enables you to deploy AI confidently.

👥

Governance and AI committee

Roles, responsibilities, validation processes, usage policies. A clear framework so that every AI decision is traceable and aligned with strategy.

📈

Metrics and monitoring

Adoption, performance, and compliance KPIs. Executive dashboard for the management committee. No more AI projects advancing in the dark.

🎓

Team enablement

Awareness and training program adapted to each profile (executives, managers, teams). Successful adoption comes through understanding, not imposition.

Case study

Industrial Mid-cap — 2,000 employees — Regulated

The challenge

This industrial mid-cap had launched 7 AI initiatives in 18 months without any coordination. Three POCs had failed, two projects were duplicated, and shadow AI was spreading across all departments. The AI Act enforcement triggered urgency: the executive committee wanted a clear strategy and a compliance framework in under 2 months.

The solution

Full maturity audit in 2 weeks. Building a prioritized roadmap with 5 high-ROI use cases (including 3 from existing POCs properly reframed). Deployment of the governance framework: AI committee, usage charter, system registry, impact assessment for the 2 high-risk systems. Training for the executive committee and managers.

“Before this engagement, AI was an anxiety-inducing topic for the executive committee. Today, we have a clear roadmap, a solid governance framework, and above all the confidence to move fast. We avoided months of drift and probably regulatory sanctions.”

Frequently asked questions

Any company that deploys, develops, or distributes AI systems in the European Union. This includes AI tools used internally (HR, finance, operations) as much as AI products sold to customers. Penalties for non-compliance can reach 35 million euros or 7% of global revenue.

On the contrary, now is the right time. Companies that structure now gain a significant advantage: they avoid costly mistakes (shadow AI, projects without ROI, non-compliance) and accelerate 3x faster than those that improvise. A roadmap in 6 weeks is better than 18 months of scattered initiatives.

The budget depends on scope: maturity audit only, full roadmap, or governance framework deployment. A typical audit + roadmap spans 4-6 weeks. We calibrate each engagement to your real challenges, not a generic template.

We don't deliver a 200-slide PowerPoint that nobody reads. We deliver an actionable roadmap, a governance framework ready to deploy, and we stay to support execution. Our team combines strategy expertise + AI technical expertise -- not one without the other.

Shadow AI (uncontrolled use of AI tools by employees) is the number one risk in 2026. Our approach: map existing uses without banning them, deploy an acceptable use framework, and provide validated, secure alternatives. The goal is to channel adoption, not block it.
