Your AI team,
embedded in your business.

Product leaders and engineers embedded in your operations, accountable from discovery to measurable impact.

Not staff augmentation. Not consulting that ends at a slide deck.

Own the right problem. Build the right solution.

One deployment pod

Two capabilities. One accountable team.

Forward deployed

Two disciplines. One accountable team.

Value to targetLess rework between business and engineering.

One embedded pod, from workflow decisions to production.

Measure: time to production and rework effort

The two roles

Who does what.

FD Product

Own the right problem and business outcome.

Forward-Deployed Product Lead

Turn business problems into deployable AI products with accountable outcomes.

Responsibilities

  1. Discover real pain points with business and frontline teams.
  2. Map processes, decision rights, and baseline metrics.
  3. Prioritize by value, feasibility, adoption, and risk.
  4. Drive adoption and realized business value.

FDE

Build and operate the right technical solution.

Forward-Deployed Engineer

Turn a validated problem into a secure, reliable production AI system.

Responsibilities

  1. Assess systems, data, permissions, and integrations.
  2. Choose the right approach: models, agents, or plain software.
  3. Build on Amplent Platform or third-party technology.
  4. Deploy with evaluation, security, and observability.

Shared accountability

Who leads, who supports, what is shared.

Scope and success criteria distinguish what Amplent controls from outcomes that depend on client inputs, decisions, data availability, and adoption. Accountability is measurable without promising outcomes beyond the team's control.

Engagement lifecycle

A named lead at every stage.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Interviews, observation, baseline metrics.

    FD Product-led
  2. 02

    Design

    Target workflow, approach, and acceptance criteria.

    Product + FDE
  3. 03

    Build

    Iterative delivery and integration.

    FDE-led
  4. 04

    Validate

    Acceptance, evaluations, and security checks.

    Joint
  5. 05

    Deploy

    Rollout with monitoring and rollback paths.

    FDE-led
  6. 06

    Operate & expand

    Track value and expand to adjacent workflows.

    Joint / managed ops

Worked example

Leasing, faster, with controls intact.

A real-estate organization wants to accelerate leasing.

Success is measured in turnaround time, accuracy, and adoption, not the number of agents built.

  • Baseline turnaround captured before any build
  • Approvals designed with the finance owner
  • Adoption tracked week by week

Ways to engage

One pod, shaped to the work.

The default is a forward-deployed pod with product and engineering together. Where the work calls for it, product leadership or engineering can be embedded on their own, and several pods can run as one program.

Ways to engage a forward-deployed team

Our promises

What makes the model different.

01

Outcome ownership

Accountable for KPIs, not tasks.

02

No lock-in

Amplent components where they fit, never forced.

03

Production responsibility

Built with evaluation and security in view.

04

Human accountability

Critical decisions stay with people.

Built with embedded teams.
