The patient
work of making
large things
intelligent.
Marietta is an enterprise consultancy. For seventeen years we have worked beside the executives, engineers, and operators of large organizations — quietly rebuilding the systems they depend on, and lately, threading intelligence through them.

— Thesis
Intelligence is not a feature you bolt onto an enterprise. It is a property that emerges — or fails to emerge — from the way an organization holds its data, its decisions, and its time.
We are skeptical of platforms that promise transformation without first asking what is true about your business. Most of our work begins with two months of listening — to engineers, to operators, to the people on the receiving end of the system. The recommendations follow.
— Six practices
RARELY ENGAGED ALONE
Agentic systems engineering
We design, build, and operate production-grade agent systems — the kind that survive contact with regulated environments.
Platform modernization
Mainframe, monolith, mesh — re-platforming critical systems on a release cadence the business can absorb.
Data foundations
Lineage, contracts, semantic layers, and the unglamorous data plumbing every model depends on.
Embedded product teams
Joint teams shipping in your codebase, against your KPIs, until your team can carry the work alone.
Risk, security & compliance
Practical AI controls for finance, healthcare, public sector, and other industries where the stakes are real.

What clients
What clients
actually say.
We do not solicit testimonials. These are excerpts from board-letter language and post-mortems clients have given us permission to publish.
"Marietta is the only firm that turned down work from us. Twice. They also delivered the only program in five years that finished on time."
"They sit closer to the work than any consultancy I've engaged. By the end you stop noticing which engineers are theirs and which are ours — that is the point."
"What you are buying is judgment. The engineering is excellent; the judgment is the thing that's rare."
