Llama Fine-Tuning in Glasgow
Fine-tuning Llama models for Glasgow organisations, where adapters change the economics. Training a small set of additional weights rather than the whole model brings the cost down enormously, keeps the artefact small enough to swap per task, and leaves the base model intact underneath so it can be replaced later.
Why this comes up
The problem
A full fine-tune was budgeted, the hardware cost is prohibitive, and the same result was available for a fraction of it.
What you get
What we deliver
- Adapter-based tuning used unless there is a specific reason for a full run
- Training data curated for quality, since defects are learned faithfully
- A held-out evaluation set kept entirely separate from training material
- Base model comparison run first, to establish what tuning actually adds
- Multiple adapters where several narrow tasks share one base model
- Serving arrangements planned, as adapters affect how the model is loaded

Working in Glasgow
Scotland
Glasgow's engineering and renewables base gives it an industrial character quite unlike Edinburgh's, and Scottish clients should note that contracts here fall under Scots law, which we account for in engagement terms.
Engineering and renewables clients dominate, with a recurring need for monitoring and reporting across distributed sites.

Llama Fine-Tuning in Glasgow — common questions
- What do adapters actually give us?
- Most of the benefit at a fraction of the cost. Training a small additional set of weights avoids updating the whole model, runs on far less hardware, and produces an artefact of a few hundred megabytes rather than a complete copy of the model.
- Can we tune for several tasks?
- Yes, and that is a genuine advantage. Separate adapters over one base model let you serve different behaviours without holding several full models in memory, which is both cheaper and simpler than the alternative.
- How much data do we need?
- Less than people expect, and it has to be good. A few hundred to a few thousand well-constructed examples typically outperform a larger set assembled loosely, because inconsistencies in the data are learned exactly as reliably as the intended behaviour.
- Should we tune before trying prompting?
- No. Establish what a well-prompted base model achieves first, because that is the benchmark tuning has to beat — and often it already meets the requirement, which saves the training, the serving complexity and the retraining later.
- Do you work with businesses across Glasgow City?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Glasgow and the surrounding Glasgow City area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Glasgow businesses do you usually work with?
- Engineering and renewables clients dominate, with a recurring need for monitoring and reporting across distributed sites. Beyond that we work across Engineering, Financial Services, Life Sciences, Creative Industries and Renewables.
- Do you cover the areas around Glasgow?
- Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Edinburgh. Glasgow is an urban area of roughly 1,000,000+, and we take on work across the wider Glasgow City region rather than the city boundary alone.
