Frequently asked questions
The questions operators actually ask.
If your question is not here, the working session is the right place to ask it.
What happens when you contact us.
What happens when I contact iQuantile?
A member of the team responds within 48 hours with proposed times for a 45-minute working session. The working session is operational, not a sales pitch. We listen, we ask precise questions about your operation, and we explain what the Blueprint would cover for you specifically.
How long is the first working session?
45 minutes. Enough time to understand your operation, your timeline, and your data position. Not enough time to waste yours.
What is the Blueprint?
The Blueprint is a four-to-six-week structured discovery, scoped to your operation. It maps every regulatory obligation, every data gap, and every dependency between systems. It produces the deployment plan for Telos, with timelines, integration points, and the metrics that will be verified.
How long does the Blueprint take?
Four to six weeks. The variance depends on the number of operating units, the complexity of your existing systems, and the regulatory geographies you operate in. The Blueprint is paid work, not a free consultation.
What does the Blueprint cost?
The Blueprint is scoped to your operation, so the figure is set during the working session once the scope is clear. We do not quote ranges in advance because the work is not standardized. What is true: every Blueprint is fixed-fee, fixed-timeline, and produces a deployment plan you own regardless of whether you proceed with Telos.
Who from iQuantile is in the room?
A senior operator from your sector and the engineer who will lead your Telos deployment. We do not staff working sessions with account executives. The people who scope the work are the people who do the work.
Telos and the platform
What Telos is, and what it does.
What is Telos?
Telos is the intelligence engine at the core of iQuantile. It describes what is happening across your operation, predicts where it is heading, and prescribes what to do about it. Telos sits on top of the systems you already run. It does not replace them.
How is iQuantile different from the systems we already use?
Your existing systems were built to record transactions and produce reports. They were not built to verify operational reality against regulatory obligations in real time. iQuantile is the intelligence layer that reconciles operational data with the evidence markets, regulators, and customers now require.
How long does Telos take to deploy?
Three months from the end of the Blueprint to operational deployment. The first 30 days connect Telos to your data sources. The next 30 days calibrate the model to your sector and operation. The final 30 days are parallel-running and verification.
Does Telos replace our ERP, CRM, or warehouse systems?
No. Telos reads from those systems. It produces the verified operational signature that those systems were never built to produce. Your existing investments stay in place.
What does Telos actually do day-to-day?
Telos monitors your operational data, flags variances against regulatory thresholds and internal targets, and produces verified outputs for capital allocators, regulators, and customers on demand. Donna, the agent layer, surfaces the items that require operator attention.
Who uses Telos inside our organization?
Operators use Donna for daily decisions. Finance and sustainability teams use Telos for verified reporting. Executive leadership uses the Blueprint outputs and the Commons evidence for capital conversations and board reporting.
Data and verification
Who owns what, and how verification works.
Who owns the data?
You do. iQuantile never owns, aggregates, or monetizes your operational data. Telos produces verified outputs from your data, and those outputs are yours.
What is the Global Impact Commons?
The Commons is a sector-governed repository of verified operational data, voluntarily contributed by member organizations. It serves capital allocators, regulators, and operators who want to benchmark, verify, and trust. Membership is voluntary. Governance is sectoral, not corporate.
What does verification mean in this context?
Every dataset that enters the Commons has a source, a method, and a signature. Telos verifies the chain before acceptance. Sector members govern what their sector's data looks like, who audits it, and how it is used.
What data enters the Commons, and what stays private?
Only the data you choose enters the Commons. Internal operational data, proprietary processes, and competitive information stay inside your operation. What enters the Commons is the verified evidence required by external stakeholders, governed by your sector's rules.
How does iQuantile prevent greenwashing?
Nothing enters the Commons unless Telos confirms it. Claims without verified evidence are structurally blocked. The Commons is the standard, and the standard does not bend to convenience.
Is our data ever sold or aggregated for resale?
No. iQuantile has no business model that depends on monetizing operator data. The platform is the product. The Commons is governed by its members, not by us.
The firm
Who is behind Telos.
Who is iQuantile?
iQuantile is the intelligent infrastructure platform built and operated by Lexington Advisory Group. The firm has spent two decades inside the operations of companies in fifteen sectors. Telos is the codification of that work.
What is Lexington Advisory Group?
Lexington is an advisory and operating firm that has run 500+ implementations across 50+ countries. The firm exists to make operational data work for the operators who produce it. iQuantile is the product the firm built when the gap between what markets demand and what operations produce stopped closing.
What sectors does iQuantile serve?
Fifteen sectors: Finance, Energy, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Aviation, Healthcare, Retail, Hospitality, Mining, Telecom, Automotive, Education, Food, Real Estate, and Security. Each sector has a named solution built on Telos.
Where does iQuantile operate?
Nine offices across six regions: New York, Washington D.C., Boston, Los Angeles, Munich, Toronto, Mexico City, Dhaka, and Nairobi. The firm operates in 50+ countries through its implementation network.
Why iQuantile and not a software vendor?
Software vendors sell tools. iQuantile builds infrastructure and runs alongside until it is load-bearing inside your operation. The team that builds your deployment is the team that operated similar businesses for two decades.
How established is the team behind Telos?
Twenty years of operational work, fifty countries, fifteen sectors, five hundred implementations. The team is not new. The product is the latest expression of work that has been ongoing since long before the term "intelligent infrastructure" existed.
