Design the capability before you build it
Blueprint defines everything an AI capability needs to succeed in production: the workflow, the architecture, the data, the controls, and the people.
It takes a prioritized opportunity from Compass and turns it into a design your business, technology, security, and risk teams can all sign off on.
What Blueprint defines
Blueprint turns a promising opportunity into a design every stakeholder can review and approve, covering:
- Target workflow: how the work will be done, and where AI fits in it.
- Integration architecture: how the capability connects to your systems.
- Data requirements: what data is needed, from where, at what quality.
- Security model and access controls.
- Guardrails: what the AI can and can't do, and when it escalates to a person.
- Evaluation plan: how the capability will be tested for accuracy, safety, and fairness before launch.
- Operating model: who owns it, who supports it, and how it's governed.
- Adoption plan: how users will be prepared and supported.
- Measures of value.
What leaders ask about Meridian Blueprint
Practical answers to the questions that often shape the first conversation.
What are AI guardrails?+
Guardrails are the rules and controls that define what an AI capability is allowed to do, what data it can use, when it must ask a human and how its actions are monitored and logged.
How long does Blueprint take?+
It depends on the complexity of the use case and the environment, but Blueprint is scoped to produce a design your stakeholders can approve, not an open-ended study.
Who owns the Blueprint artifacts?+
You do. They're written for handoff, so your teams have a usable record of decisions, architecture, controls, and ownership.
