Governed AI deployment partner: one critical workflow

Ahead of the BridgeAI: Accelerating AI Deployment competition, Holovast is looking for an industry adoption partner with a real operational AI challenge in critical physical work. The ideal partner is a medium or large organisation with one clearly defined, high-value workflow, for example assembly and inspection, workforce onboarding, maintenance of critical equipment, incoming-material checks or production release, together with access to the operational environment and data, agreed performance measures, and a route to broader adoption if the deployment succeeds. Holovast contributes its existing governed AI platform (step-by-step guidance, evidence-gated decisions, corrective guidance and audit-ready records, delivered via browser, tablet or AR), AI and systems-engineering expertise, responsible-AI controls, integration capability and a structured approach to measuring operational outcomes. The capability has been developed through three funded Innovate UK programmes and commercialises results from a prior Innovate UK collaboration under exclusive licence. We are open to forming a consortium or joining one being assembled, and also welcome regulatory, evaluation, systems-integration and commercialisation partners. We would be glad to arrange a short meeting before or after the 26 October event. Our immediate priority is the current BridgeAI competition, while we remain open to future deployment opportunities.
