Practical AI and digital resilience for owner-run firms in the North East
AI that asks first. Code that just runs.
Ninety minutes, £450, and the seven checks that keep the firm trading, written down for your firm by the end of the session. Owner-led, so you talk to the person who decides.
For owner-run firms in the North East
From a two-person practice to a factory with hundreds on the floor and a dozen in the office. If the decisions still sit with one or two people, this is the work. Member of the North East Chamber of Commerce.
The resilience session
Ninety minutes, £450, on-site or remote, with the seven checks completed for your firm by the end of the session. You leave with one page of answers, a dated record of what we found and what to do next, a backup restore to run yourself, and a list of who to ring when the till or the email stops.
The risk assessment
£1,500 fixed fee. The European Technology Risk Assessment worked through for one firm, on your systems, your data and your suppliers, with a walkthrough and a written assessment you own, normally 15 to 30 pages. It is not a penetration test.
The free guide
Digital resilience for firms: seven things to check. A one-page self-assessment: what to check before the morning the card machine stops and the email will not send. Free, no sign-up.
