Specialist Focus.
Practical Results.
AI governance advisory done well requires a different kind of attention than generalist consulting. We bring focus, written outputs that are actually used, and a pace your team can work with.
Back to HomeSix reasons teams choose to work with us
Specialist, Not Generalist
We work exclusively in AI governance and documentation advisory. That focus means our templates, checklists, and process guides are built around the specific challenges of AI work, not adapted from unrelated contexts.
Written Outputs You Will Use
Every engagement produces clear, plain-language documents. Summaries you can share with leadership. Templates your team will reach for. Process guides a new hire can follow. Not slides. Not frameworks requiring interpretation.
Shaped Around Your Team
We do not apply a standard framework to every client. Before recommending anything, we learn how your team actually works — its rhythms, its constraints, its existing habits. The process we suggest will fit, not fight, your organisation.
Independent Perspective
We hold no vendor relationships, no certification affiliations, and no interest in selling follow-on tools. Our advice is independent, which means it is shaped entirely by what serves your organisation's needs.
Malaysian Operating Context
We understand how organisations in Malaysia are structured, how decisions get made, and what the evolving regulatory and market landscape looks like. Our work reflects that context rather than ignoring it.
Clear, Fixed Pricing
Our engagements are priced transparently from RM 540 for a Practices Review to RM 2,920 for a three-month advisory engagement. No retainer ambiguity, no scope creep surprises, no billing by the hour.
What each advantage means in practice
Professional Expertise
Our team brings direct experience from roles inside financial institutions, technology companies, and professional services firms — not from studying those environments from the outside.
- Combined 25+ years in technology strategy, internal audit, and process design
- Direct experience running cross-functional workshops inside Malaysian organisations
- Familiarity with AI project patterns and where documentation typically breaks down
We do not train on theory and apply it to clients. The documentation challenges we address are ones we have encountered firsthand — missed decision records, undocumented model changes, review steps that existed only in someone's memory.
Teams that complete our engagements leave with materials they can use immediately. The documentation review produces a written summary and templates on the same day. The governance engagement ends with a handbook ready for internal distribution.
Results and Outcomes
We measure success by whether the materials we produce are still in use six months after an engagement. Our focus is on outputs that become part of your team's working practice, not reports that sit on a shelf.
- All written deliverables ready at the close of each engagement
- Templates designed to be maintained without our involvement
- Process guides written for team members who did not attend the sessions
Value and Transparent Pricing
Our three engagement types are priced to reflect the scope of work involved, not to maximise billing. Each is a fixed-fee arrangement — you know the cost before you begin.
- Documentation Practices Review: RM 540 (one session + written summary)
- Internal Process Workshop: RM 1,390 (two sessions + templates)
- Governance Advisory Engagement: RM 2,920 (three-month advisory + handbook)
Payment terms and invoicing are discussed during the initial conversation. We do not require upfront payment for the full engagement before work begins. A clear payment schedule is part of every service agreement.

Things we do that others do not
Record Template Previews
Every engagement includes example record templates specific to your AI project types. You leave with a starting set of documents your team can adapt without starting from a blank page.
Versioned Notes Column
Our governance handbook format includes a structured column for version notes — so your team can track changes to its own processes over time, without needing a separate change-log system.
Plain-Language Priority
All our written outputs are reviewed for plain language before delivery. If a sentence requires a background in AI governance to parse, we rewrite it. Your records should be readable by the whole team, not just specialists.
Post-Engagement Availability
For a period following each engagement, our team is available for brief questions about how to apply the materials delivered. We do not close the file and disappear the day after the final session.
