Why Integr8te

Operator-grade integrity.
AI-amplified delivery.

The seat we have held.

The organisations we serve are under-resourced, carrying poor workflows, short of strategy and vision in exactly the areas that leak budget. We know because we have held the seat.

Our founder owned an asset owner's risk-based inspection programme, led a class survey on a major floating asset, then served as CAA UAV Accountable Manager for remote inspection operations. We have watched technical authority succession fail from the inside. We have carried the accountability that a regulated safety regime assigns to a named person.

The table we sit at.

Governance practice is only as good as the standards behind it. Integr8te's founder co-chairs OEUK's Asset Integrity Technical Group alongside the HSE principal mechanical regulator, plus supports the writing of the Energy Institute guidance on the use of big data and AI in integrity data.

Our clients get practical insight into where expectation is heading, rather than only where it stands.

How we hold ourselves.

Delivery runs under a quality management system aligned with ISO 9001: documented processes, evidenced decisions, corrective actions logged and closed. Built and maintained by a BSI-trained Lead Auditor. We are happy to show it.

Proof

The model is live with our anchor client in high hazard operations: accountability mapping, problem-area delivery, dashboarded governance.

Integr8te Ltd Integr8te makes integrity accountable. We map and fix the accountability gaps that organisational change leaves inside asset-owning businesses, so the right person owns every risk and the control holds in practice rather than on paper. Opportunity sits between procedure and practice. Procedure is what is written down: the roles, the ownership, the accountability. Practice is what happens on the ground. Merger, reorganisation, succession and asset life all pull the two apart. We work in the distance between them. What we do

The Accountability Gap Review . Who owns each risk. Who owns it after the change. Answered with evidence before a regulator, an insurer or an acquirer asks.

Problem-area integrity packages . The areas nobody fully owns: pressure systems, corrosion under insulation, dead legs, small bore tubing, relief devices, structural connections.

Standing governance . The accountability map stays live as the organisation moves.

Undeclared AI Review . Fixed scope, fixed price, ten working days, fully remote. Where AI already shapes the data underneath decisions your people sign.

Training and community . AI governance for boards, leaders and contract owners.

Free ISO self-assessments . ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 42001.

All of it runs under EVOLVE, the method Integr8te uses with every client. Six pillars: Evidence, Verify, Ownership, Leverage, Value, Embed. AI governance and the law Governance is what lets you use more AI, not less. Accountability for a decision does not transfer when the input to that decision starts being produced by a machine.

The Machinery Regulation bites nineteen months before the AI Act route that catches the same manufacturers. Who we work with Asset owners and operators in manufacturing and machinery, food, drink and alcohol, marine and shipbuilding, plus energy. High hazard, high commercial value, international where the legal position has to hold in more than one country. Also the supply chains that serve them. Why Integr8te Led by Grant Blackaby.
