Approved catalog
We define which models are allowed, where they run, how they are updated, and who approves changes before usage spreads.
Ollama and LM Studio deployments
We standardize local AI environments so engineering, IT, and operations teams can use approved models without configuration drift, unmanaged downloads, or unclear support responsibility.
Problem and risk
Ollama and LM Studio often start as individual experiments. Without a shared standard, teams accumulate unapproved models, inconsistent settings, unknown data paths, and support gaps that make the environment hard to secure or reproduce.
We define which models are allowed, where they run, how they are updated, and who approves changes before usage spreads.
Workstations, Apple Silicon pilots, NVIDIA servers, and local endpoints need documented baselines rather than ad hoc configuration.
Monitoring, operating commands, incident handling, and rollback steps make local AI usable by internal IT instead of a one-person experiment.
Fit and delivery
The engagement turns tool choice into an implementable topology, support model, and deployment backlog.
Engineering, IT, security, operations, and AI pilot teams that need supportable local models without letting configuration drift define the architecture.
Deployment topology, approved model catalog, access controls, hardening steps, monitoring points, hardware assumptions, ownership recommendations, and runbooks.
We size real workloads, document constraints, recommend a topology, and validate a controlled pilot against speed, reliability, data handling, and supportability.
Plan the model catalog, access controls, deployment topology, and operating runbooks before the tool spreads informally.
