AI Consulting in Pickering

Pickering sits on the Durham lakeshore and its economy is shaped by the nuclear generating station and the engineering, inspection and supply businesses that serve the energy sector around it.

Qualification is the workload

A 25 person engineering or inspection firm supplying the nuclear sector maintains quality programs, personnel qualifications, training records, calibration certificates and procedure revisions, at a standard set by a customer several orders of magnitude larger. The administrative load does not scale down with headcount.

Tracking every dated record and assembling qualification packages on demand is the highest value workflow automation available here, in the $4,000 to $9,000 band. What it removes is not typing. It is the chance that an expired record is discovered by an auditor rather than by you.

The approval rule is not negotiable

In this sector nothing that forms part of a quality record may be generated without a named human approval, and the approval must be recorded. Any supplier offering you unattended document generation into a nuclear quality system does not understand the customer you are serving.

That is also why a written AI use policy is worth having before a build here rather than after. Your customer will eventually ask what your rule is, and the right time to write it is not while answering the question.
