Strategy, operations & technology consulting in San Diego, where the firm is based.

• 01
  Systems design

  Where a customer’s compliance or traceability demands have outgrown the systems a business runs on, the first job is deciding what each system is responsible for and where the record of truth lives — before anything new is bought.

• 02
  Process improvement

  For hospitality and visitor-economy operators, the margin worth recovering is likely to sit in the handoffs: booking to scheduling to invoicing. Mapping the process as it is actually run is how to find the steps that cost the most.

• 03
  AI strategy

  In a region where so much data is regulated, the first AI question is not which model but which data may be used at all, and where it may run. That decides whether an off-the-shelf tool, a private model or nothing is the right answer.

  Implementation, through Nexos

  When the answer is to build — an integration, an internal tool, an automation — the firm’s own technology division builds it, so the recommendation and the build are one engagement.

These are the services the region’s industry mix tends to call for — reasoning from the economy above, not a list of past engagements. All services

  Is Abrams & Luchanski actually based in San Diego?

  Yes. San Diego is the firm’s headquarters and where it was founded in 2024. There is no public street address; meetings happen at your premises or by arrangement.

• II

  Can you work with a business that has operations on both sides of the border?

  The consulting work itself — mapping processes, designing systems, deciding what to build — is the same wherever the operation sits. On-site discovery happens on the U.S. side; work involving operations in Mexico is done remotely with the people who run them.

  We sell into defense or life sciences. Can AI be used on our data at all?

  Sometimes, and it is the first thing to establish. The answer depends on what the data is, what your contracts and regulators say about it, and where a model would run. For a defense supplier handling controlled unclassified information, that means DFARS 252.204-7012 and NIST SP 800-171 (now assessed under CMMC), and ITAR for export-controlled technical data; for a life sciences company, HIPAA if it is a covered entity or business associate, and FDA’s 21 CFR Part 11 for electronic records. The firm helps a business work out what those obligations mean for its systems and which data an AI tool may touch — it is not a certification assessor, does not certify compliance and does not give legal advice. Where outside services are ruled out, a private model on your own hardware is one option; often the right answer is to automate the non-sensitive work first.

  What kind of San Diego business do you work with, and what is the first step?

  Owner-led and mid-sized businesses in San Diego County, where an operations or technology decision has real consequences. The first step is a short message describing the situation; we reply within one business day. Then comes the free audit: a call to establish what the problem is, followed by a written audit. If it makes sense to go further, you receive a quoted, fixed scope; that paid engagement’s discovery and leadership workshops happen in person at your premises, anywhere in San Diego County, and end in a written recommendation.

• V

  What does an engagement cost?

  The consulting scope — discovery, workshops and the recommendation — is quoted per project after the first call, once the problem is clear. Technology work carries Nexos’s published prices: the technology audit costs nothing, a fixed-scope build starts at $4,900, and a private model hosted for you starts at $890 per month.
