SOLUTIONS ENGINEERING

Platform + People.
Results in 30-90 Days.

ARPIA isn't just software—it's software plus the expert team that ensures you succeed. From discovery to production, Solutions Engineering deploys your first AI use cases while building your team's capability to scale independently.

80% of AI Projects Fail
Without Expert Guidance

Enterprise AI isn't failing because of bad technology—it's failing because organizations lack the expertise to deploy, govern, and operationalize AI at scale. DIY platforms leave you guessing. Traditional consulting is expensive and slow. You need something different.

"Figure It Out Yourself"

Pure platform plays give you the tools but no guidance. Your team spends 6-12 months learning, experimenting, and failing—while competitors deploy AI that actually works.

"Forever Dependency"

Traditional consulting delivers results but creates dependency. $500K+ engagements, 12-18 month timelines, and you're stuck with consultants forever because they never transferred the knowledge.

"No AI Engineering Talent"

You can't hire fast enough. AI engineers are scarce and expensive. Even if you build a team, they lack enterprise AI deployment experience. You need results now, not in 2 years.

Platform-Led Deployment:
Fast, Guided, Independent

ARPIA Solutions Engineering combines platform technology with deployment expertise—giving you the speed of a platform with the de-risked delivery of expert guidance, but without the dependency of traditional consulting.

Capability DIY Platforms Traditional Consulting ARPIA Solutions Engineering
Time to Value 6-12 months (trial & error) 12-18 months (waterfall) 30-90 days (proven process)
Cost Structure Platform fees only $500K-$2M+ projects Platform + deployment fee
Expert Guidance Documentation only Yes (expensive) Yes (included)
Knowledge Transfer None Minimal (creates dependency) Built-in (you own it)
Scalability Do it yourself Hire consultants again Deploy 10+ use cases independently
Risk Level High (80% failure rate) Low (but expensive) Low (with platform leverage)
Ongoing Dependency None (you're on your own) High (forever consultants) None (after 30-90 days)
Platform leverage (not custom code)
Time-bound engagement (30-90 days, not forever)
Knowledge transfer built-in (you become independent)
Proven deployment process (repeatable, not one-off)
Technical depth (AI engineers, not project managers)

Solutions Engineering FAQs

How is this different from consulting?
Traditional consulting builds custom solutions from scratch (expensive, slow, creates dependency). ARPIA Solutions Engineering deploys on our proven platform (fast, cost-effective, you own it after 30-90 days). We transfer knowledge so you can scale independently—consultants don't.
What happens after the 30-90 days?
You own it. The use case is deployed, your team is trained, and you're ready to deploy next use cases independently. We provide 30 days of post-deployment support, plus ongoing platform support and community access. Optional: You can engage Solutions Engineering again for additional use cases.
Do I need internal AI expertise to work with Solutions Engineering?
No. That's the point. We bring the AI expertise and transfer it to your team during deployment. You need: (1) business domain expertise, (2) access to your data systems, (3) stakeholder buy-in. We handle the AI engineering.
Can you deploy multiple use cases at once?
Yes (Enterprise Partnership tier). We can deploy 2-3 use cases concurrently with a larger Solutions Engineering team. Most customers start with 1 use case to prove value, then expand.
What if our use case doesn't fit standard templates?
ARPIA Platform is built for customization. Solutions Engineering handles unique requirements—whether it's unusual data sources, complex approval workflows, or industry-specific compliance. That's why we do discovery first.
How much does Solutions Engineering cost?
Accelerated Deployment (1 use case): typically $75K-$150K depending on complexity. Enterprise Partnership (multiple use cases): custom annual engagement. Platform-only: $3,500/month (no services). Schedule a discovery call for specific pricing.
Do you work with our existing vendors/systems?
Yes. ARPIA integrates with any system that has an API (ERPs, CRMs, databases, cloud platforms). Solutions Engineering handles all integration work. We're model-agnostic (Claude, GPT-4, custom models) and cloud-agnostic (AWS, Azure, GCP, on-premise).
What industries do you have experience with?
Deep experience in Financial Services, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Retail, and Defense/Government. See our Industries page for specific use cases. If your industry isn't listed, we still work with you—ARPIA Platform adapts to any domain.
Can we start with Platform tier and add Services later?
Yes. Many customers start exploring the platform themselves, then engage Solutions Engineering when they want to move faster or tackle complex use cases. You can upgrade anytime.
What's included in the 30 days of post-deployment support?
Bug fixes, performance optimization, minor enhancements, and answering questions as your team gets comfortable operating the use case. After 30 days, ongoing platform support continues through standard channels.
