MCP INTEGRATION SERVICES BY DESIGN INDUSTRIES
Connect Every Enterprise Tool to AI. Securely. Seamlessly.
We engineer the neural pathways of your digital ecosystem. Like a Formula One pit crew, our integrations operate with precision, speed, and reliability to bridge your LLMs with your internal reality. We architect, build, and govern Model Context Protocol servers that give your AI agents safe, structured access to your enterprise data.

The Integration Challenge
Why modern enterprises struggle to bridge the gap between static data and dynamic AI agents.
Disconnected AI
Your LLMs are brilliant but blind to your business context. Without live access to internal databases, tickets, and code repositories, they hallucinate or provide generic answers that lack enterprise relevance.
Integration Fatigue
Building custom point-to-point connectors for every AI tool (Claude, ChatGPT, internal agents) creates an unmaintainable spaghetti architecture that drains development resources.
Security Concerns
Giving AI access to data often means handing over the keys. Enterprises lack granular control over what the model can read, write, or execute, creating significant compliance risks.
No Internal Expertise
The Model Context Protocol is new. Internal teams are already stretched thin and lack the specialised knowledge to implement standard-compliant servers effectively.
What Is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the open standard that enables AI models to interact with your data and tools safely. Instead of building separate integrations for every AI platform, you build one MCP server that any compliant AI client can talk to.
"Think of it as the USB-C port for AI applications—universal, standardised, and ready for plug-and-play capability."
By standardising how context is provided to Large Language Models (LLMs), MCP eliminates the need for fragmented, custom connectors. Every optimisation matters. Every day counts. Excellence is systematic, not accidental.

MCP in Action: Industry Outcomes
Every industry has fragmented data and disconnected AI tools. Here's what MCP integration delivers across the sectors we serve.
| Industry | Challenge | MCP Solution | Business Impact |
|---|---|---|---|
| Financial Services | Compliance teams manually cross-referencing regulations across siloed databases, audit trails, and document management systems. | MCP server connecting AI agents to regulatory databases, audit logs, and document repositories with role-based access controls. | Reduced audit time by 70%; 100% regulatory coverage with automated compliance checks. |
| Government | Citizen service enquiries requiring access to multiple government systems with strict data sovereignty requirements. | On-premise MCP deployment connecting AI assistants to citizen databases, case management systems, and policy documents without data leaving Australia. | Improved response accuracy with sovereign data handling; faster query resolution across departments. |
| Healthcare | Clinicians spending hours gathering patient history from fragmented EHR systems, lab databases, and imaging repositories. | HIPAA-compliant MCP server providing AI clinical assistants with structured access to patient records, lab results, and medical imaging with audit trails. | Faster diagnosis support with comprehensive patient context; secure PHI interaction with full compliance. |
| Enterprise IT | IT operations teams manually correlating incidents across monitoring tools, ticketing systems, and runbook documentation. | MCP integration connecting AI incident response agents to ITSM platforms, monitoring systems, configuration databases, and runbook repositories. | MTTR reduced by 45%; L1 support tickets automated with autonomous incident remediation. |
Outcomes are illustrative of the types of improvements MCP integration can deliver within enterprise ecosystems. Actual results depend on integration complexity, data quality, security requirements, and scope of engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can’t find what you need? Check out our FAQ or go to our Support Center or Contact us.
Is MCP secure for sensitive data? ❯
Absolutely. MCP runs locally or on your private infrastructure. The protocol is transport-agnostic, meaning we can wrap it in standard HTTPS/WSS with Mutual TLS, ensuring your data never leaves your controlled environment without explicit permission.
Which AI models support MCP? ❯
Currently, Anthropic's Claude Desktop is the primary consumer, but the standard is open-source. We are seeing rapid adoption across other agentic frameworks and IDEs like Cursor and Windsurf.
Do I need to replace my current API gateways? ❯
No. MCP servers often sit alongside or "behind" your existing gateways. They act as a translation layer specifically for LLMs to understand how to query your existing APIs effectively.
How long does it take to implement an MCP server? ❯
A simple Proof of Concept connecting one data source typically takes 2 weeks. Full enterprise deployment with complex governance can take 4-8 weeks depending on the number of integrations.
Can MCP connect to on-premise databases? ❯
Yes. Because MCP servers can be hosted anywhere, we can deploy them within your firewall to access on-prem SQL servers, Oracle DBs, or legacy mainframes securely.
What is the difference between MCP and a RAG pipeline? ❯
RAG is primarily about retrieval of static documents. MCP is about agency—giving the AI the ability to perform actions (query live data, update records, restart services) via tools, not just read text.
Do you offer ongoing support? ❯
Yes, our Digital Factory engagement model includes ongoing maintenance, updates to the MCP protocol as it evolves, and 24/7 monitoring of your integration servers.
