OneSix, a data and AI services firm, has acquired CTI Data, a data governance and management consultancy, marking a strategic expansion to address the critical need for trusted data foundations in enterprise AI scaling. The combined company aims to deliver end-to-end services that bridge governed data ecosystems on platforms like Snowflake with advanced analytics and AI capabilities, particularly for regulated industries.
OneSix acquires data governance consultancy CTI Data to expand its AI and data services.
The merger combines OneSix's AI/ML expertise with CTI's governed data foundation capabilities.
The focus is on helping enterprises scale AI responsibly, with a strong position in the Snowflake ecosystem.
CTI brings deep experience in regulated sectors like healthcare, life sciences, and higher education.
OneSix also expands its board with Frank Farrall, former Deloitte Digital cloud and AI strategy leader.
The move addresses the market barrier of data quality and compliance in AI adoption.
The acquisition is a direct response to enterprise challenges in moving from AI experimentation to production at scale. Dave Kilimnik, CEO of OneSix, stated the core thesis: “AI success starts with trusted data. By joining forces with CTI Data, we're bringing together governed data foundations and advanced AI capabilities to help enterprises deploy AI responsibly, at scale, and with measurable business impact.” The merger creates a unified service portfolio that spans from data governance and engineering to applied AI and machine learning.
CTI Data brings over three decades of experience, with a strong focus on data-intensive, regulated sectors such as healthcare and higher education. Harry Kasparian, Founder and CEO of CTI, highlighted the synergy: “Together, we can take on larger, more complex data, analytics, and AI initiatives and help clients turn trusted data foundations into insight, intelligence, and real business impact.” This deep domain expertise is critical for tackling the compliance and quality requirements that often bottleneck AI projects in these industries.
Concurrent with the acquisition, OneSix expanded its board with the addition of Frank Farrall, a leader with extensive experience in scaling AI and digital businesses at Deloitte Digital and in forging strategic alliances with major cloud platforms. This leadership reinforcement underscores the company's ambition to capture a larger share of the growing market for Snowflake-centric and cloud-based AI services.
The acquisition positions OneSix as a more formidable player in the data and AI consulting space, offering a combined value proposition of governance, compliance, and cutting-edge AI implementation to enterprises aiming to operationalize their data for intelligent outcomes.
