The mandate

The clock is ticking. Only a 1:1 option fits.

Altura provides a single accountable partner, senior from first call to adoption. Fortune 100-grade judgment moving at the speed the mandate demands, with agentic tooling that closes the delivery gap.

A board sets an aggressive target. An investor ties funding to a milestone. New leadership inherits a turnaround window. You need AI-driven results on a defined timeline, and internal bandwidth won't get you there.

Large firm

Brand and rigor, but generic playbooks not built for your data or your stack, and a recommendation you still have to implement yourself.

Independent senior partner

Speed and direct access to the person doing the work, backed by the same judgment and rigor as a Fortune 100 engagement, without the layers.

Engagement models

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What is Altura Partners?
Altura Partners is an independent AI transformation advisory firm founded by Enrique Rico, a former Strategy& and PwC operator. It provides Fortune 100, large enterprise, and PE-backed leaders with senior level AI strategy and hands on execution. One accountable partner from first call through adoption.
What is an AI Operating Diagnostic?
A 4-6 week structured assessment of your organization's AI readiness against a board or investor mandate. It combines executive interviews, data review, and an operating model pressure test, and ends with a prioritized 100 day execution roadmap showing where the plan will break and what to sequence first.
How is Altura Partners different from a large consulting firm?
Large firms bring brand and rigor but typically deliver generic playbooks through layered teams, leaving implementation to you. Altura provides the same Fortune 100 grade judgment through a single senior partner who owns delivery end-to-end. No handoff to a junior team, and agentic AI tooling that compresses timelines a staffed team would need.
What does an engagement cost?
Every engagement is fixed scope and fixed cost, proposed in writing after a short scoping conversation. No lengthy sales process and no open ended billing. The initial conversation is free, and you leave it with a written point of view on fit either way.
Who does Altura Partners work with?
Leaders under a defined performance mandate: Fortune 100 and large enterprise executives with board set targets, PE operating partners and portfolio company CEOs tied to investment milestones, and new leadership teams inheriting turnaround windows.
What is an AI-native operating model?
An operating model where AI agents and automation are built into how work flows through the organization, not bolted on as tools people may or may not use. In practice this means redesigning processes, roles, and decision rights around what agentic systems can reliably own, so throughput gains survive after the engagement ends.
