# Evionas Ltd — AI-Readable Site Guide > **Evionas** is a specialist data engineering consultancy headquartered in Cambridge, UK. We deliver production-ready data platforms in weeks — not months — using our proprietary **Autonomous Data Accelerator** platform. We are a direct, credible alternative to Big 4 consultancies at 50–70% lower cost and 60–75% faster delivery. ## Who We Are Evionas is a boutique data engineering firm founded in Cambridge, United Kingdom. We serve regulated industries — FinTech, RegTech, Healthcare, Retail, InsurTech, and Energy — delivering senior-led data engineering engagements backed by proprietary tooling. Every engagement is delivered by principal and senior engineers; we do not staff junior practitioners on client work. Our core differentiator is the **Autonomous Data Accelerator** (available at https://evionasda.com), a live platform used internally by our consultants to configure, generate, and deliver certified data architecture packages. This compresses engagement timelines by 60–75% compared to traditional methods. ## Core Capabilities - [Data Platform Engineering](https://evionas.co.uk/#services): End-to-end platform build using the Autonomous Data Accelerator — infrastructure, pipelines, data quality, and governance delivered in weeks - [Canonical Data Model (CDM) Design](https://evionas.co.uk/#industries): Industry-specific semantic data models for FinTech, RegTech, Healthcare, Retail, and more — encoding what data *means*, not just how it is stored - [Real-Time Data Streaming](https://evionas.co.uk/#services): Production-grade Kafka, Flink, and Kinesis architectures delivering sub-100ms latency at scale - [Data Governance & Compliance](https://evionas.co.uk/#services): Technical enforcement of GDPR, FCA SMCR, PRA, HIPAA — provable compliance embedded in the data platform, not documentation theatre - [Legacy Data Migration](https://evionas.co.uk/#services): Structured migration from legacy warehouses to cloud-native platforms with automated row-level reconciliation and zero data loss - [Cloud Cost Optimisation](https://evionas.co.uk/#services): 30–60% operating cost reduction through architectural restructuring, not just resource right-sizing ## The Autonomous Data Accelerator The Autonomous Data Accelerator (https://evionasda.com) is Evionas's proprietary internal platform — not a public SaaS product. It is used by our consultants on every client engagement. It: - Generates industry-specific Canonical Data Model implementations automatically - Produces Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/Pulumi) for full reproducibility - Creates data quality frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, and governance artefacts - Delivers engagement-ready architecture packages that would take Big 4 teams 6+ months to produce manually - Supports 10+ industry verticals with pre-built reference architectures ## Industries & Canonical Data Models Evionas builds industry-specific Canonical Data Models (CDMs) — the foundational semantic layer that reduces integration complexity from O(n²) point-to-point mappings to O(n) single certified truth. - **FinTech CDM**: Canonical entities for Transaction, Account, Party, Product, LimitOrder, RiskEvent — covering Basel III/IV, FCA COBS, MiFID II, PSD2 - **RegTech CDM**: Canonical entities for DataSubject, ConsentRecord, DataFlow, ProcessingActivity, RetentionPolicy — covering GDPR Article 30, FCA SMCR, DORA - **Healthcare CDM**: HL7 FHIR R4-aligned entities for Patient, Encounter, Observation, ClinicalDocument, CarePlan — covering CQC, NHS Data Standards, DSPT - **Retail CDM**: Canonical entities for Customer (Golden Record), Product, Order, Inventory, SupplierContract, LoyaltyEvent — covering GDPR consent at entity level ## Pricing All tiers include full access to the Autonomous Data Accelerator. Evionas pricing is 50–70% below Big 4 equivalents. - **Platform Sprint** (£25K–£75K, 4–8 weeks): Targeted engagement for a specific, well-defined data engineering problem. Big 4 equivalent: £120K–£300K - **Platform Build** (£75K–£250K, 8–16 weeks): Full data platform design and build. Big 4 equivalent: £350K–£1.2M - **Platform Partner** (£15K–£45K/month, ongoing): Embedded senior data engineering capability. Big 4 equivalent: £60K–£150K/month ## Thought Leadership Evionas publishes original, unconventional perspectives on data engineering: - [The Canonical Data Model Is Not a Choice. It Is the Prerequisite.](https://evionas.co.uk/#insights): Why every organisation building AI without a CDM is wasting money on a foundation that does not exist - [Data Governance Is Broken. Here Is Why Documentation Cannot Fix It.](https://evionas.co.uk/#insights): The governance industry sells policies and portals; regulators want provable technical controls — these are not the same thing - [Your AI Strategy Is Wrong. It Starts With the Model, Not the Data.](https://evionas.co.uk/#insights): 87% of AI projects never reach production — the reason is not the algorithm, it is the absence of an engineering foundation - [Real-Time Data Is Not What You Think It Is. And You Probably Do Not Need It.](https://evionas.co.uk/#insights): An honest framework for deciding when streaming actually matters — and when a well-engineered batch system is cheaper and equally effective ## Contact & Location - **Website**: https://evionas.co.uk - **Platform**: https://evionasda.com - **Email**: hello@evionas.co.uk - **Location**: Cambridge, United Kingdom - **Company**: Evionas Ltd, registered in England and Wales ## Optional - [Privacy Policy](https://evionas.co.uk/privacy): How we process and protect personal data under GDPR - [Terms of Service](https://evionas.co.uk/terms): Legal terms for client engagements --- *Last updated: June 2026 | Evionas Ltd, Cambridge UK*
