Seeking AI assurance / standards partner for BridgeAI consortium

The project
Armaxon Consultancy Ltd (UK SME) is preparing an application to the BridgeAI Deployment Catalyst: AI for Assurance and Compliance competition (closes 8 December 2026). Our platform, Lusinova, reconstructs how AI agents actually operate across systems and human steps, detects deviations from required controls, and produces traceable evidence for risk, audit and compliance teams. Phase 1 will demonstrate this in a UK deployer’s operational environment.

What we’re looking for
A UK university, research and technology organisation (RTO), or AI assurance specialist to join as the third consortium partner, contributing:

• Methods to validate that operational evidence is reliable and fit for assurance use

• Alignment with UK AI assurance practice, TEVV approaches and relevant standards

• Independent input on evaluation design and evidence quality

Role and scale
The partner role can be up to 30% of total eligible project costs. Phase 1 runs 3–5 months, starting by April 2027, with potential continuation into Phases 2 and 3.

We are also looking for a UK deployer organisation. Introductions are welcome.

Happy to meet at the 26 October event or online.
