Controlled private AI implementation for industrial operations
Governance starts with a scoped implementation: define the data boundary, retention, access, source receipts, auditability, versioned knowledge, approval rules, recovery needs, connectivity, and third-party dependencies.
Drivers Seat offers Private LLM Training and Implementation, Role-Specific AI Systems, and Combined Operational AI. Each control is evaluated against the customer's requirements and supported infrastructure; unverified controls are not guarantees.
Derrick Brain provides the drilling-specific intelligence layer and first industry implementation. ROP supplies the operating environment and drilling expertise used to develop, test, and validate it.
Capabilities
- Data and retention boundaries: Define what the implementation can access, where data is retained, and how scope changes are handled.
- Access and least privilege: Plan role access and least-privilege rules for the selected environment and workflow.
- Audit and versioning: Scope source receipts, auditability, and versioned knowledge where the implementation supports them.
- Resilience and dependencies: Address backup, recovery, connectivity, encryption where implemented, and third-party dependencies during scope.
Privacy and safety
Drivers Seat scopes controls with each customer. Depending on requirements and supported infrastructure, an implementation may use on-premises, private-cloud, or hybrid options.
Scoping covers data boundaries and retention, encryption where implemented, role access and least privilege, source receipts, auditability, versioned knowledge, human approval, backup and recovery, connectivity, and third-party dependencies. Controls that are not verified or implemented are requirements to scope, not guarantees.
Frequently asked questions
What are the three ways to work with Drivers Seat?
Drivers Seat offers Private LLM Training and Implementation, Role-Specific AI Systems, and Combined Operational AI. The right scope depends on your data, workflow, and approval rules.
How are privacy and security controls decided?
Controls are scoped with the customer. Depending on requirements and supported infrastructure, the implementation may consider on-premises, private-cloud, or hybrid options, along with boundaries, retention, access, auditability, recovery, connectivity, and third-party dependencies. Unverified controls are not guarantees.
How does Drivers Seat approach high-consequence work?
Implementations use focused workflows, source-backed outputs, and human approval. The specific approval, escalation, and operating rules are defined during scope.
How does Drivers Seat measure whether an AI implementation works?
Drivers Seat defines task-level acceptance criteria before a pilot, then tests source use, factual accuracy, required approvals, exception handling, and agreed workflow measures. Outcomes are reported only from preserved evidence; a pilot is not presented as production proof.
How do we start?
Start with one high-value workflow, prove the result, then expand. Use the request-information form on the homepage, email Remoteops@ropinc.ca, or call +1-825-425-2767.
Are controls guaranteed before scoping?
No. On-premises, private-cloud, or hybrid options and individual controls depend on requirements, supported infrastructure, and implementation decisions. Unverified or unimplemented controls remain scope items.
