Founder, Control 21
Antony Goldschmied founded Control 21 to connect strategic advice with practical implementation and sustained operational capability.

Delivery network
The right capability for the engagement.
Control 21 team
People directly accountable for client relationships, governance, coordination and agreed delivery responsibilities.
Associates and specialists
Selected subject-matter capability engaged for defined work, with role, authority, confidentiality and quality expectations made explicit.
Technology and delivery partners
Approved organisations contributing products, platforms or specialist delivery where this improves the client outcome.
Control 21 does not represent contractors, associates or partner personnel as employees. Engagement roles and accountabilities are confirmed for each assignment.

AI-enabled capability
AVA — organisational adviser and service interface.
AVA supports guided discovery, structured intake, authorised knowledge retrieval, workflow coordination, evidence preparation, customer workspace functions and ongoing service support.
AVA is a Control 21 AI capability—not an employee, director, officer or independent professional adviser. AVA does not approve its own work, make uncontrolled commitments or replace the accountable human responsible for a decision.
AVA operates with
- Role-based access and customer-data separation
- Approved sources and controlled records
- Human review for material advice and decisions
- Traceable actions, approvals and escalation
- Defined boundaries for privacy, security and evidence
One accountable delivery model.
Regardless of who contributes, Control 21 defines the outcome, delivery roles, decision rights, controls, evidence and escalation path before work proceeds.
