Palantir Foundry
Ontology. Pipelines. Workshop.
BaileyFinch engineers have shipped production Foundry deployments inside federal environments. We design ontologies that actually model the operation, build pipelines that run reliably, and deploy Workshop applications your users will use. Not proof-of-concepts. Production.
Discuss Your Foundry Program →The Foundry problem we solve
The ontology gets designed by people who don’t understand the operation. Object types get modeled after the data schema, not after how work actually happens. Link types are added as an afterthought. Action types never get built at all. The result is a Foundry environment that technically runs but that no one uses.
Pipelines are a separate failure mode. Pipeline Builder workflows and Code Repository transforms get built by contractors who leave before they’re production-ready. Incremental logic is missing. Data health monitoring is an afterthought. The pipelines run in dev and break in production.
Our engineers embed with your team, model the operation accurately, and stay until the system is running.
What we build in Foundry
Not one workstream in isolation. We deliver the full capability: ontology to pipelines to Workshop, with data health and governance built in from the start.
Object types, link types, and action types designed to reflect how work actually happens. Not a copy of your database schema. A model of your operation that Foundry can reason over and act on.
Pipeline Builder low-code workflows and Code Repository transforms in Python and PySpark. Incremental logic built in from day one. Production-ready, not prototype-quality pipelines that need a rewrite before go-live.
Operational tools built for end users, not demos. Workshop applications wired to live ontology objects, with action types that write back and Object Explorer integrations that surface what decision-makers need.
Source systems connected to Foundry datasets with proper incremental logic. Data Lineage tracked from ingestion through transforms. Data Health monitoring configured so pipeline failures surface immediately, not days later.
What-if modeling with Scenarios for planning and decision support. Quiver time series analysis for operational and logistics data. Contour point-and-click analytics for analysts who need answers without writing queries.
Access controls and audit trails configured to your security requirements. Ontology management practices that keep the object model coherent as it grows. Governance built to survive team transitions without degrading.
Why primes choose BaileyFinch for Foundry work
01
Our SBA-certified SDVOSB status helps you meet small business subcontracting goals on covered federal contracts. Adding BaileyFinch to your Foundry program satisfies set-aside requirements without sacrificing technical depth.
02
Cleared personnel available for classified Foundry environments, including IL4 and IL5 deployments. Federal Foundry programs operate at classification levels that require cleared engineers. We have them.
03
Not bench resources waiting for Foundry training. Engineers who have built production ontologies, written Code Repository transforms, and shipped Workshop applications that users rely on. The learning curve is already behind us.
04
We integrate into your existing Foundry program without standing up a separate workstream. Your team structure, your ontology decisions, your delivery cadence. We add capacity and expertise where the program needs it most.
Engagement models
Three ways to bring BaileyFinch into your Foundry program. Each is scoped to a specific need and can expand as the program grows.
Staff Augmentation
Foundry-experienced engineers placed directly on your contract. They work inside your team structure, follow your delivery cadence, and contribute immediately. SDVOSB-eligible for set-aside credit.
Focused Builds
One defined deliverable: an ontology redesign, a pipeline migration, a Workshop application build, or a Contour and Quiver analytics layer. Scoped, time-boxed, and handed off production-ready.
Full Delivery
Ontology design through Workshop deployment. We own the full Foundry delivery workstream: data ingestion, pipeline development, object modeling, application build, and governance. We stay until it is operational.
