Capability · Greenfield delivery

Requirements to production.
In weeks, not quarters.

New systems, new modules, new revenue surface. Our AI platform compresses the SDLC from requirements through deployment — senior engineers own architecture, security, and the production cutover. Plans trace to the PRD. Architecture is gated.

The case

Fast demos ≠ fast software.

Plainly A model that ships a demo in a weekend will ship a UAT escalation in six months.

Greenfield is where AI looks the best in a sales call. A prompt becomes a working prototype in an afternoon. The slide deck writes itself. The hard parts — load testing, idempotent migrations, secrets management, the fourth alert at 3am — are invisible at the prototype stage, which is exactly where most projects sign off on AI as the delivery model.

What follows is predictable. UAT exposes the half of the requirements the agent never inferred. Security review exposes the half of the architecture nobody owned. The cutover slips. Engineers get pulled in to repair a system they didn't help design. The original timeline survives only as a footnote in the post-mortem.

The honest version of greenfield delivery uses AI heavily — and constrains it harder. PlanTrace makes every plan item answer to the PRD. ArchTrace makes every change answer to the architecture. Senior engineers own the parts AI shouldn't. The result is software that ships in weeks and runs on a Tuesday.

The approach

Four things that don't bend. Everything else is configurable.

The platform compresses the SDLC.

Requirements analysis, solution design, code generation, test scaffolding, and deployment artifacts are produced by our internal agents — not by hand and not from scratch. Senior engineers spend their time on architecture and judgment, not on boilerplate.

Senior engineers own the architecture.

Choices about boundaries, data, security, and integration sit with a named senior engineer. Not the agent. Not a committee. The person whose name is on the architecture is on call for it after delivery.

Plans trace to the PRD.

PlanTrace produces a plan where every story carries its source — PRD section, paragraph, version hash. No orphan scope. No invented requirements. When a stakeholder asks why are we building this?, the answer is a link.

The architecture is gated.

ArchTrace runs before every AI session stops. SHACL shapes over seven named graphs catch drift the moment it happens. Reviewers see violations in the IDE, not in a PR thread three days later.

Where AI fits

Honest about the line. AI accelerates. Engineers decide.

Greenfield is where AI leverage is highest — and where the temptation to let it ship unchecked is strongest. We name both sides plainly. The engagement plan reflects what AI actually carries and where the senior engineers must own the keyboard.

AI is great at

The bulk of delivery work.

  • DesignDrafting solution design, API contracts, and data models from a PRD that's already been agreed.
  • TestGenerating regression suites, property-based tests, and the boring 80% of integration coverage no team writes by hand.
  • DocumentKeeping runbooks, ADRs, and architecture diagrams in sync with the system as it evolves.
  • IterateSpinning up, comparing, and discarding implementation variants in hours rather than sprints.
AI is bad at

The decisions that determine whether it ships.

  • BoundariesChoosing where one system ends and the next begins — and which contract you're going to live with for years.
  • SecurityThreat modelling, trust zones, secrets handling, and what to do about the question nobody wants to ask the regulator.
  • DataSchema decisions whose cost shows up two migrations later, not at the first commit.
  • ProductionCutover, capacity planning, the rollback path, and the conversation with the on-call team at 2am.
Inside an engagement

Four stages. One named team across all of them.

01 · FRAME

Frame

Outcome statement, constraint register, system context. The thing being built becomes the thing being measured.

~2 weeks · fixed-fee
02 · PLAN

Plan

PRD becomes a plan with full lineage via PlanTrace. Architecture map is drawn and signed. Cutover sketch on day one.

~2 weeks · fixed-fee
03 · BUILD

Build

Iterate in waves. Agents draft, generate tests, refactor. Seniors gate every change. ArchTrace enforces the architecture.

6–10 weeks · milestone-billed
04 · SHIP

Ship

Production cutover with a rollback path. Observability live before the first user. Same team carries the pager for the first sprint after launch.

The platform edge

Where the platform earns its keep.

PLANTRACE

A plan that survives contact with stakeholders.

Every plan item links back to the PRD section it came from. Approved plans are immutable; updates ship as diffs. Scope creep stops being a conversation about memory and becomes a conversation about evidence.

ARCHTRACE

Architecture that stops drifting the day the agents start.

Deterministic gate over seven named graphs. Every AI session is checked against the architecture before it stops. SARIF findings render in the IDE the senior engineer is already in.

Illustrative shape

What a greenfield wave actually looks like.

GREENFIELD MODULE · ILLUSTRATIVE BRIEF NDA. NAMES OMITTED.

A new claims-intake service for a regulated insurer, replacing a manual workflow that had outgrown its spreadsheet.

Client
European insurer, regulated lines. The claims-intake step was email and shared spreadsheet; the team had outgrown both and the auditor had started asking pointed questions.
Scope
A new claims-intake service: customer-facing form, agent dashboard, integration with the existing core, audit log to the regulator's required format. Plan traced to the PRD; cutover with rollback to the old workflow.
Team
4 IVBIS engineers. One senior architect (lead). One backend senior (domain and integration). One frontend senior (form + dashboard). One platform engineer (observability, cutover, on-call). Client side: a product owner and one engineer who'd been keeping the spreadsheet alive.
Duration
12 weeks. Two weeks frame, two weeks plan, six weeks build in three waves, two weeks cutover and stabilisation. Milestone-billed.
Outcome
Service live in window. Audit log accepted by the regulator on the first submission. Claims throughput up 3× in the first month because the form actually worked on the agent's phone — which the spreadsheet didn't. A claims-intake agent template, a regulator-ready audit-log pattern, and a cutover playbook became reusable IP. The next regulated greenfield engagement started two weeks ahead.
