We Transform Data Anarchy into Certified Intelligence.

Who We Are

Bailiwick Ventures is a premier digital transformation consulting firm dedicated to a single, critical mission: making our clients a Certified Enterprise.

In an era where organizations are drowning in data yet starving for truth, we provide the strategic bridge between chaotic legacy systems and the promise of autonomous AI. We do not just implement technology; we architect the "Truth Layer" that governs it.

Targeting the Fortune 1000, we specialize in high-stakes operational environments—from multi-unit foodservice and hospitality to retail and manufacturing—where the cost of "bad data" is measured in millions. Our team is comprised of veteran operators, C-level financial strategists, and technologists who understand that digital transformation is not about gathering more data, but about knowing which numbers to believe.

Our Leadership

Michael L. Atkinson, Founder & Principal, is a leading strategist at the intersection of operations and technology. With over three decades of experience in operations, technology and corporate finance within the $1 trillion restaurant industry, Michael has lived the "Data Civil War" from the frontlines. From operator to CFO, he has witnessed the paralysis caused by conflicting metrics and the "AI Mirage" of garbage-in, gospel-out decision making.

He is a frequent blogger, speaker and most recently, the author of The Certified Enterprise: Taming Data Anarchy in the AI Era, the definitive guide to resolving the crisis of trust in modern business data. Michael founded Bailiwick Ventures and FohBoh.ai to solve the structural blind spots that sabotage digital transformation, bringing a practical, profit-driving focus to enterprise data governance.
