Engineers on your floor,all the way to go-live
A forward deployed engineer (FDE) is not an outsourcer who delivers and leaves, but a partner who works on-site, side by side with your team.
01 — WHY FDE
The hardest part of adopting AI isn't the technology — it's the last mile.
Not an outsourcer who delivers and leaves —
a partner on your floor
On-site engineering partner
Many companies buy a system or run a proof of concept, only to find nobody uses it. Usually the developers don't understand the floor, and the floor doesn't know how to work with AI.
Minxun's FDEs walk into your factory and offices and work alongside production, maintenance, QA and management — observing, building and adjusting as they go — staying with your custom AI agent until it's live, used smoothly and part of your team's own capabilities.

02 — PROCESS
From requirements to go-live,an FDE at every step
- 01
Discovery
FDEs go on-site to understand your processes and pain points, review equipment and existing systems, and find the most valuable starting point.
- 02
Solution design
Plan the data architecture and agent scenarios, assess benefits and resources, and pair with government programs where relevant.
- 03
Custom build
Build your custom AI agent while connecting machines and systems in parallel, validating in small, fast iterations.
- 04
Go-live
Deployment, training and on-site support to make sure the tools are actually used — not shelved.
- 05
Improve
Iterate on user feedback and measured results, expanding to more lines and use cases over time.
03 — CONSULTING & PROGRAM
Not sure where to start with AI?
Start with a consulting assessment.
We help you see clearly what's worth doing, what it will cost and how soon you'll see results — and bring in program support to lower the barrier and the investment risk.
