Audit-Ready AI and Data Infrastructure
Archetype Core designs and modernizes governed data platforms for federal and regulated environments, specializing in Databricks, Unity Catalog, production data engineering, and traceable AI.
Databricks Partner
Building governed, reliable data and AI systems on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform.
Solutions
Archetype Core is a specialized consulting firm. We focus on four areas where architecture, governance, and evidence need to work together.
Trace one defined use case across data, system, and evidence readiness before committing to a larger build.

Practical analysis on modernizing data platforms, governing AI systems, and keeping technical decisions traceable.
Clear thinking for leaders and technical teams making consequential data and AI decisions.
Explore InsightsThe Standard
Across reviews, modernization, Databricks, and AI work, three questions matter: Can the data be trusted? Can the system be controlled? Can the organization reconstruct what happened later?
Can you establish where critical data came from, how it changed, who owns it, and whether it can be trusted?
Are pipelines, permissions, configurations, dependencies, and AI components controlled well enough to operate reliably?
Can you reconstruct what happened from authoritative source through system behavior and human decision?
Source → data / retrieval → AI / agent → output → human action → decision
The evidence has to survive each handoff.
Start Here
The AI & Data Readiness Review is a focused two-week architecture engagement for organizations preparing to modernize data platforms, introduce AI, or strengthen governance around an existing system.
From kickoff
Confirmed at intake
Fixed fee
Standard engagement covers one bounded use case confirmed during a short intake. Delivery starts at kickoff once required access and materials are available. Work outside the confirmed boundary is scoped separately.
This is an advisory engagement, not a penetration test, compliance certification, formal audit, or authorization decision.
Capabilities Behind the Work
The Readiness Review is one entry point, not a prerequisite. Archetype Core also supports directly scoped architecture, implementation, modernization, governance, and traceable AI work when the need is already defined.
Legacy ingestion, data pipelines, schema and quality controls, lineage, and AI-ready data architecture.
RAG, retrieval pipelines, model integration, citations, controlled access, and traceable AI workflows.
Audit records, decision traceability, monitoring, provenance, and the controls needed to reconstruct system behavior later.
Who We Serve
Archetype Core focuses on teams operating data and AI systems where provenance, access, reliability, and defensibility matter.
Modernizing mission data platforms, strengthening governance, or introducing AI into environments where reliability and traceability matter.
Supporting federal programs that need specialized Databricks, data architecture, governance, data engineering, or audit-ready AI capability.
Building consequential data and AI systems where provenance, access, reliability, and defensibility matter.

Explore the reference systems →Public Sector
For federal agencies and government contractors, the question is not only whether an AI or data workflow works. It is whether the team can later show what data it used, what happened in the system, what it produced, and what a person ultimately decided.
