Specialist consequence-control partner for BridgeAI Decision Critical / Assurance consortia

About

Halo Systems Ltd is seeking one qualifying BridgeAI consortium where an AI/ML system will make or support consequential decisions or actions in a real operational setting.

Halo contributes a bounded Authority-at-Execution Assurance work package. We test whether the evidence, mandate, delegated scope and standing authority supporting an AI-enabled decision still cover the exact consequence when it is about to execute — including cases where evidence becomes stale, authority is revoked or narrowed, circumstances change, or a technically executable action no longer remains admissible.

Best-fit use cases include agentic payments, delegated commerce, fraud/financial-crime interventions, underwriting/lending, risk decisioning and regulated operational workflows.

We are looking for:

1. a UK AI SME lead with an existing TRL 5–6 solution;

2. an eligible UK deployer able to provide a representative operational environment;

3. a consequential use case where this assurance boundary is material.

Halo operates read-only / shadow-only and does not require model weights, unrestricted source code, production write access or execution authority.

If your consortium has the AI solution and deployer but lacks a specialist work package around continuing authority, evidence freshness and admissibility at execution, that is the gap Halo is designed to fill.
