AI Integrators Council
Feb 26, 2026
The AI Integrators Council (AIIC) brings together industry leaders that help policymakers understand the rapidly evolving AI ecosystem and its real-world applications. As a founding member, Peraton brings deep experience integrating advanced AI into mission-critical environments to help shape practical and responsible technology adoption and governance.
The AI Integrators Council released its inaugural white paper outlining the essential role AI integrators play in enterprise AI adoption and the broader AI value chain.
As the paper explains, integrators serve as the bridge between foundation model developers and deployers — configuring, customizing, and operationalizing AI systems across sectors, including government and the Fortune 500.
Yet emerging policy frameworks continue to rely on a binary developer–deployer distinction that does not reflect how AI systems are actually brought to market.
The white paper provides:
- A clear framework for understanding the AI value chain
- Analysis of the limitations of the developer–deployer model
- Draft definitions and practical legislative tools to support proportionate, control-based accountability
As lawmakers and regulators continue to advance AI policy, recognizing the distinct role of AI integrators will be critical to aligning responsibility with actual control, reducing legal uncertainty, and sustaining enterprise innovation.
