03 - AI Engineering

Software, built faster with AI.

From the AI software factory to autonomous agents in your delivery process - with governance that keeps quality and traceability intact.

The problem

Almost every engineering team now uses AI assistants. The organisation rarely gets faster as a result. Individual developers save minutes, but reviews pile up, testing lags behind and nobody can say which code came from whom - or what.

Productivity doesn’t happen in the editor. It happens in the system.

Our approach

We don’t bolt AI onto existing processes as a tool. We redesign the process around it:

  • AI Software Factory - a standardised pipeline from requirement to deployment, where agents handle routine work and humans make the calls.
  • Agentic Development - agents that read tickets, write code, add tests and prepare pull requests. With clear boundaries and human approval.
  • AI Governance - guardrails for models, data and accountability, so speed never comes at the cost of security or quality.

How we work

Phase Duration Outcome
Reality-check sprint 2-4 weeks Maturity, bottlenecks, prioritised use cases and a first measured result on one slice - fixed price, credited towards the pilot
Pilot 6-8 weeks One team, one product, measurable before-and-after
Rollout ongoing Factory set-up for more teams, enablement, operations

We make the first assessment from your description, without confidential content - legacy code included. Code access only after an NDA and your approval.

All of this also works in your environment - in your cloud, on-premises or without internet access. For classified or export-controlled data we work exclusively there, with security-cleared staff.

What you get

  • A delivery pipeline in which agents actually contribute - not just suggest code.
  • Measurable metrics: lead time, review effort, defect rate.
  • Governance rules that stand up to audits.
  • Teams that can evolve the system themselves.

AI makes good teams faster. It only makes bad processes louder.

Validation in one day instead of five

An AI decision assistant shows engineers which test is regressing and why. After a blind test on unknown data, it was industrialised across programmes.

Field test

From ticket to pull request: 162 hours become 64

A field test in one of our own projects: in one sprint, engineers implemented 14 real tickets in dialogue with a coding agent and estimated the effort with and without it. Around 60% less effort, with big differences per ticket.

Modernisation in live operation - around 60% faster with AI

A critical engineering application on an ageing stack was modernised iso-functionally - without service interruption and with AI as the accelerator.

300,000 documents a month - understood automatically

An AI pipeline of eight custom models classifies, extracts and enriches construction documents and blueprints - at around 90% accuracy.

Test operations with agents: 14 hours a day freed for more important work

An agent system monitors a continuously running test suite, triages every failure and fixes approved test defects. The system takes over around 88% of the routine work - the team has the time for further development.

Advising where customers ask today

An app inside one of the major AI assistants: customers describe what they are looking for in their own words - and get matching models, comparisons and available vehicles based on real product data.

The assistant that knows every price list

The request was a classic app for looking up equipment codes and prices. We showed that a chat does it more simply - as a working prototype: an answer in 5 to 10 seconds instead of 3 to 5 minutes in spreadsheets.
