The Patented Methodology Transforming How Institutions Deploy AI

Skyline Consults is the principle licensee of Ontop+Within—a filed patent AI architecture designed for institutional contexts where enhancement beats replacement

Our Story: From Implementation Excellence to Methodology Innovation

For 20+ years, we've operated at the intersection of complex systems, challenging contexts, and institutional transformation. Managing donor-funded programs across 100+ districts. Leading financial oversight for national health infrastructure. Implementing systems for social protection programs serving vulnerable populations. Supporting USAID, CDC, PEPFAR, and DfID-funded initiatives with zero audit findings across every engagement.

This experience revealed a fundamental truth: institutions operating in constrained contexts don't need solutions designed elsewhere and adapted poorly. They need architecture designed from the ground up for environments where system replacement isn't viable, where solutions must work ontop of existing infrastructure while integrating within operational reality.

That insight became Ontop+Within—our proprietary methodology combining dual-axis intelligence with an architectural approach that enhances rather than replaces existing systems. We formalized this innovation through patent filing: UG/P/2025/31, "AI Adaptive Model for Legacy Infrastructure Augmentation," filed November 12, 2025, with jurisdiction in Uganda/Africa.

Founder & Methodology Architect

Solomon Thomas Baganja, FCCA, MBA

Founder & Managing Director | Ontop+Within Methodology Architect | Patent Holder

Solomon's 20+ year career trajectory explains why Ontop+Within exists. UK-educated (Oxford Brookes University BSc, University of South Wales MBA) with four years professional experience in London managing portfolios exceeding £2.5 million, he returned to Uganda in 2009 to apply international standards in African institutional contexts.

What distinguished his approach was pattern recognition across seemingly disparate challenges. Managing financial systems for a 100-district national laboratory services program revealed how solutions must work despite infrastructure limitations. Leading financial oversight for SAGE social protection across 15 districts demonstrated how effective systems integrate within existing government processes rather than replacing them.

Solomon formalized this approach as the Ontop+Within methodology and filed patent application UG/P/2025/31: "AI Adaptive Model for Legacy Infrastructure Augmentation" on November 12, 2025. The patent covers the dual-axis analytical framework, enhancement layer architecture, continuous learning integration, and applications across ten major industries.

The Ontop+Within Methodology

Dual-Axis Intelligence Framework

Most AI systems analyze single dimensions. Ontop+Within deploys dual-axis analysis, examining behavioral patterns and contextual factors simultaneously. Behavioral axis captures transaction frequency, payment patterns, service utilization, and historical performance. Contextual axis evaluates regulatory environment, market conditions, seasonal variations, and regional characteristics.

The methodology's power emerges at the intersection. A customer's consistent transaction behavior (behavioral) combined with stable employment in a growing sector (contextual) indicates reliability that neither dimension reveals independently.

Enhancement Layer Architecture

Ontop+Within creates intelligent enhancement layers that work ontop of existing systems while integrating within operational workflows. This architecture connects to current databases, applications, and processes through standard integration points—APIs, database connections, web services—without requiring core system modification. Deployment accelerates dramatically: weeks instead of years. Costs reduce substantially: enhancement versus replacement.

Our Values

Context-First Intelligence

We design AI solutions from deep understanding of institutional realities, not from generic frameworks adapted superficially.

Enhancement Over Replacement

Institutions deserve AI that works with existing investments, not solutions requiring wholesale rebuilding.

Methodology Over Marketing

We prove value through technical capabilities and documented implementations, not through generic AI promises.

Innovation From Constraint

Building AI architecture designed from challenging institutional experience and optimized for global deployment.
