The market is filled with technology vendors who are happy to sell you the latest AI equipment and wish you luck on your journey. These are "base camp" consultants. They can get you started, but they lack the deep, real-world experience to guide you through the treacherous terrain of implementation, integration, and adoption. They will sell you a generic, one-size-fits-all product that is ill-suited for the unique challenges of your industrial environment, leaving you stranded halfway up the mountain.

For over a century, Sherpas have been the indispensable guides for expeditions in the Himalayas. Their value comes not from the equipment they carry, but from their deep, intimate knowledge of the mountain. They know the safe paths, they can read the changing weather, and they understand the unique challenges of the environment. The principle is simple: when the stakes are high, trust the guide who has been to the summit before.
