Building Governed, Production-Ready Agents

Our Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Accelerator moves enterprises from AI experimentation to production with a secure, governed platform for running agents at scale. In eight weeks, you get a production-ready runtime with observability, identity controls, access boundaries, and audit trails, providing the visibility, control, and accountability needed to deploy agents across the enterprise.

Fast-Track AWS Modernization

Our migration approach is grounded in the AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP), enhanced with AWS Transform, and strengthened by proven processes to help enterprises. Using automation, repeatable patterns, and tested templates, we accelerate the shift from outdated tech stacks to modern cloud environments.

Assessments or POCs only go so far. The next step is deploying workloads that run at scale and hold up under operational pressure. Whether you're just starting or already deep into your roadmap, our teams bring AWS competencies, industry experience, and proven delivery methods to help you increase resilience, accelerate delivery, turning your roadmap into measurable results.  

AI and ML Solutions Built for Enterprise Scale 

AI is no longer a side project. It's reshaping how enterprises operate, making decisions, and deliver value. But most organizations still struggle to move from experimentation to production. That's where disciplined engineering and enterprise-grade governance matter.  

We deliver end-to-end  AI/ML and GenAI lifecycles, from model selection and enhancement to Bedrock architectures, agentic solutions with AgentCore, SageMaker, and AI-driven data and application workflows. Our expertise enables intelligent processes, real-time insights, and new digital capabilities. We also accelerate Nova Forge model creation and spec-driven development with Kiro.

Cloud Foundations That Hold Up

A strong cloud foundation requires guardrails, identity boundaries, and operational discipline to keep teams moving fast without losing control.

We build secure, scalable AWS environments using best-practice foundations across IAM, multi-account governance (Control Tower / Organizations), VPC networking, landing zones, and baseline operational controls. 

Financial Discipline, Engineered for Cloud

Cloud spend is only a problem when no one sees the full picture. Finance and operations need shared visibility, accountability, and a clear path to turn cloud cost into business value.

We analyze cloud spend to identify inefficiency and overspending, then bring finance and operations teams together to align spending with business goals. The goal is not cost-cutting for its own sake; it is strategic optimization that supports performance, growth, and financial accountability.  

Solution:

  • AWS FinOps Jumpstart: Our FinOps Jumpstart assesses your environment, configures monitoring tools, and delivers actionable cost insights. In four weeks, you gain visibility into spend, governance to control it, and a targeted plan to eliminate waste before it compounds. 
Cloud Operations Built for Velocity

Cloud Operations shouldn't slow teams down. They should increase efficiency and reliability while reducing complexity to manage online environments. AI-powered operations help teams identify issues, automate responses, and keep pace with changing business demands.  

We deliver AI-first cloud operations across automation (CloudFormation/Terraform), DevOps, monitoring, resilience engineering, and continuous optimization to keep AWS workloads cost-efficient, compliant, and reliable. 

Data That Drives Confident Decisions

Data fuels innovation if it's accessible, trusted, and ready for activation. Most organizations already have the data. What they also need is a cloud-native foundation that  unifies information across systems, applications, and sources.

We build cloud-native data platforms on AWS services such as S3, Glue, Redshift, Aurora, and DynamoDB, enabling organizations to consolidate, govern, analyze, and activate data. Our partnerships with Databricks and Snowflake allow us to tailor each platform to the organization’s broader enterprise data strategy.  

Legacy to Cloud-Native, Fast

Legacy systems slow teams down, increase cost, and limit AI adoption. Modernization isn't optional, but it must  be structured, predictable, and grounded in real engineering discipline.  

We accelerate cloud adoption with AI-enabled migration and modernization services. We combine AWS-native tools, GenAI assistants, structured refractoring, and move-and-improve patterns to transform legacy workloads into modern, cloud-native architectures. 

AI-Driven AWS Transformation

Reduce technical debt, accelerate cloud adoption, and modernize VMware, .NET, mainframe, and custom applications faster with AWS Transform and Perficient. 

Platform Engineering That Accelerates Development

When infrastructure becomes a bottleneck, application delivery stalls. We help teams move faster  without sacrificing security or reliability by applying proven architecture and engineering practices to build resilient AWS platforms that scale with demand.

Our platform engineering approach turns infrastructure into an enabler. We design and implement modern application platforms using Terraform and CloudFormation across Kubernetes and Amazon EKS, serverless architectures with AWS Lambda, API platforms, and integrated engineering toolchains. Each platform is built to support cloud-native delivery at enterprise scale. 

A Spec-First SDLC for the AI Era

AI-driven development requires more than faster code generation. It requires clarity, consistency, and quality from the outset. Kiro brings structure to AI-assisted development by turning requirements into technical designs and executable implementation tasks.

Kiro’s spec-driven development approach by establishing repeatable workflows across requirements, design, implementation, testing, and documentation. The result: AI-assisted coding that is structured, governable, and scalable across delivery teams.
