We design governance around your vision — compliance and risk built in.

Ulyx Advisory, with a technology edge, works with state and local government agencies, mission-driven organizations, nonprofits, businesses, and growing veteran-owned companies to design the governance structure that carries a vision forward — with the compliance and risk mitigation your organization needs built directly into that design, so it becomes a source of speed and credibility.

About

We design the governance your vision needs to move fast, stay agile, and endure challenges and changes.

Ulyx Advisory partners with mission-driven organizations, nonprofits, state and local government agencies, businesses, and growing small and veteran-owned companies to design the governance, risk, and compliance infrastructure that carries their vision forward — built in from the start, not bolted on after the fact.

We are client-focused and design-minded: the work starts with what you're building, not with a checklist. Clients succeed because we innovate inside the compliance regimes that apply to them, finding the paths that maximize mission and vision achievement, agility, focus on customer experience, and market opportunity — while making sure the structure holds up when it's actually tested.

SDVOSB and Maryland VSBE certification applications are in process.

What we do

Eight focus areas — from the governance structures that carry a growing organization's vision, to the compliance programs that hold up when they're formally tested, to the technology and AI strategy that keeps you moving faster than regulations written for yesterday's tools.

Governance

Board Structure, Governance, and Purpose

We design advisory and governing boards from the ground up — charters and bylaws, voting and reporting procedures, candidate application and vetting processes, and ethics requirements for service — then train members on their obligations. Built for nonprofits, private companies, and state and local government.

Technology

Technology & AI Governance

Governance and acquisition policy for high-stakes technology — facial recognition and capture, AI platform adoption, and other major technology investments — designed so innovation and oversight move together.

Growth

AI Enablement for Growing & Veteran-Owned Businesses

We help small and veteran-owned businesses put AI to work — in communications, logistics, and rapid market-opportunity identification — with privacy and compliance designed in from the start, not added after the fact.

Privacy

Privacy by Design & Institutional Ethics

Privacy, records-management, and institutional ethics programs built directly into how systems and processes are designed — not layered on afterward — with FISMA and CIRCIA compliance as an additional focus.

Grants

Grants Compliance Frameworks

2 CFR Part 200 compliance frameworks for organizations managing federal or pass-through grant funding.

Performance

Governance Frameworks & Performance Standards

Practical governance and GPRA performance-management frameworks tied to how your organization actually operates.

Audit

Audit Remediation & Corrective Action

Root-cause remediation plans for audit findings, with corrective-action tracking built to close out clean.

Risk

Enterprise Risk Management & Internal Controls

Internal-control program design aligned to OMB Circular A-123, built to withstand independent testing.

How We Work

From idea to a launch that holds up.

Clients come to Ulyx Advisory with a vision — a new program, a new business, a new technology. They leave with a governance structure built to carry it.

1

Design the idea

We start with what you're building and who it's for — not with a compliance checklist.

2

Map the governance

A governance framework — board structure, decision rights, reporting lines — built around how you'll actually operate.

3

Build the compliance strategy

Risk, privacy, and regulatory requirements designed directly into that structure, so they move with you instead of slowing you down.

4

Launch and communicate

A rollout and communications plan so the structure is understood and adopted, not just written down.

Credentials

Veteran-owned. Design-minded.

Ulyx Advisory was founded by a principal with a legal, cybersecurity, technology governance, and federal compliance background. That background is the foundation for work that is client-focused and design-minded: we innovate inside the compliance regimes that apply to your organization to maximize mission achievement, agility, and market opportunity, and we build programs that are strong and endure when challenged by audits or business realities.

We do not provide legal representation, legal advice, or assistance with claims before any federal agency — Ulyx Advisory is a governance and compliance consultancy, not a law practice.
