Where AI and People Work as One Team.
Cortex, Our AI Partner
Cortex is a BridgePoint brand, and VMS International's partner for AI in the business. It is our current AI strength. Cortex is built for businesses and CEOs. It gives the organisation one controlled place for AI, where AI and people work as one team.
In Cortex, AI proposes and a named person confirms. Approvals and sign-off stay with people. There is an audit trail of what was confirmed, and the same place also covers operations planning and reporting.
Cortex does not detect AI used outside it, and it does not certify compliance with any standard. It gives you a record you can use.
The VMS International Group
VMS International is a strategy consulting practice underpinned by technology expertise. Alongside the practice sit E-Business Labs and VMS Ventures, so strategy, research and investment can sit together when that is what the work needs.

Learn More About VMS VenturesHow We Work
We provide more than strategy. Clear implementation roadmaps follow naturally, and our work in change management and e-learning helps the organisation put the plan into practice. When AI is part of that plan, we treat it as a business decision: where it belongs, how it is put to work, and how a named person stays accountable for what it changes, through our partnership with Cortex.
We Speak the Language.
Our strength in technology means we can identify issues quickly, work with your existing teams, and point to straightforward opportunities for step-change improvement, including how AI and automation can sit inside operations.
Advice That Has Been Road-Tested.
The best advice is both deeply considered and tested. E-Business Labs informs, and draws from, the work we do with clients, including experiments with artificial intelligence, automation and new ways of working.
AI in the Strategy.
We help you decide how AI fits the e-business strategy. For a controlled place to put AI to work, we partner with Cortex: AI proposes, a named person confirms, approvals and sign-off stay with people, and there is an audit trail alongside operations planning and reporting.
Built to Move.
As a nimble organisation ourselves, we practice what we preach. We build actionable e-business strategies that are flexible and responsive, and we work at the pace the situation requires.
Aligned Interests.
We work with companies of all sizes. For clients we believe in who adopt our recommendations, we can offer flexibility in pricing, including part fee and part equity arrangements.
