STRATEGY, AI, ECOSYSTEMS

Clarity in the
age of AI.

In 2026, AI budgets and enterprise software contracts, including Cloud ERP, are approved before the organization knows which decisions must stay human and which risks the vendor will not volunteer. Alkemia is the executive-intelligence consultancy that sets the criteria, tests the assumptions, and reduces the risk of those decisions while they are still reversible.

Founded by Alexandre Pereira, former Vice President of ERP for SAP Latin America and the Caribbean.

The best decision is not the most modern. It is the most defensible.

What we do

Three practices.
One criterion.

How the system supports advisory
The cost of deciding in the dark

Capital allocated to AI without criteria accumulates exposure no one has priced. A Cloud ERP contract signed without the right protections becomes a number at renewal that was not there before. Alkemia prices the trade-off while the decision is still reversible.

Intelligence Report

10 enterprise AI decisions
that 2026 forces.

What the signals from SXSW and GTC 2026 mean for those deciding budget, governance, and architecture in the next 90 days. The criterion for turning market intelligence into decision.

Frequently asked

The criterion, in four questions.

What is an executive-intelligence consultancy?
Executive intelligence is the discipline of turning market signal, risk, and trade-off into decision criteria before capital is committed. Alkemia sets the criteria, tests the assumptions, and names the decisions that must stay human, while the decision is still reversible.
What is a defensible decision?
A defensible decision holds up when audited later: the criteria are explicit, the assumptions were tested, and the trade-off was priced before the commitment. It is the criterion Alkemia applies across all three practices, and the test an executive can run on any decision before signing it.
What is Alkemia's Decision Architecture?
The Decision Architecture names, before any AI tool enters production, the decisions that cannot be delegated to a system: where AI should operate, on what criteria, and under what governance. Architecture decisions belong to the client; the method, criteria, and governance stay with Alkemia; execution runs against the approved architecture, through a delivery partner.
