Engagements

Fixed scope. Fixed fee.
Defined deliverables.

Every engagement declares a boundary before it starts — what is in, what is out, and what ships. Fixed fee is risk transfer: overrun risk sits with ArcPoint rather than with your program. Pricing is scoped to the engagement and quoted in three business days.

MCP & Agentic AI Readiness Assessment
CISO · Architecture · Program
Where agentic workflows and tool-connected models create exposure that traditional model review does not catch — connector permissions, action authority, prompt-injection surface, and the human checkpoint that should exist and usually doesn't. Mapped to the OWASP LLM Top 10.
By scopeFixed fee
AI Risk Gap for CMMC Programs
DIB Contractors · CMMC Leads
Where AI adoption intersects an existing CMMC or SP 800-171 posture — and where a well-meaning AI rollout quietly undermines a control that was already assessed.

For organizations with no AI policy at all. Acceptable use, shadow-AI controls, decision authority, and a governance structure sized for an organization without a compliance department.

Owner · COO · Compliance
For organizations that already have some policy and need to know whether it survives contact with how staff actually work. Plain language, no framework theater.
By scopeFixed fee
AI Automation Risk Review
Operations · IT
Is what you have already automated actually under control? The risk companion to an automation program — what the workflow can do unsupervised, and who finds out when it does it wrong.
By scopeFixed fee
AI Tool Usage Workshop

Hands-on enablement — teaching staff to use AI tools well. Deliberately distinct from governance and policy work, and sold separately so neither pretends to be the other.
1 sessionFlat fee
AI Governance Retainer

Ongoing monthly advisory for organizations that have a policy and need someone to keep it true as tools, staff, and regulation change.
