AI Governance
Govern AI tool use before it governs you.
Most organizations adopted AI tools faster than they established rules for using them. Establish decision rights, control shadow AI adoption, reduce data exposure, and build a governance framework that matches how your business actually operates.
What the engagement delivers
- AI tool inventory across your organization
- Shadow AI exposure assessment
- Data classification guidance for AI processing boundaries
- Acceptable use policy framework
- Decision rights and approval workflow documentation
- Implementation roadmap prioritized by risk
- Executive briefing on AI governance posture
The Governance Framework
Five areas that define your AI governance posture.
Inventory and Visibility
Identify every AI tool in use across your organization, including tools employees adopted without approval. Most organizations are surprised by what they find.
Decision Rights
Establish who can approve new AI tools, under what conditions, and what review process applies. Governance without ownership fails.
Data Exposure Controls
Determine what categories of data can be processed by which AI tools. Protect client data, financial records, and confidential business information from unreviewed AI pipelines.
Policy Framework
Build acceptable use policies that are specific enough to enforce and practical enough to follow. Policies that exist on paper and policies people actually use are not the same document.
Accountability Structure
Define how AI-generated outputs are reviewed, labeled, and verified before informing decisions. Accountability means knowing who is responsible when an AI output causes a problem.
What to expect
The first 30 days.
Week 1
Discovery
We map your current AI tool footprint across teams, identify unauthorized or unreviewed tools in use, and assess data exposure pathways.
Week 2
Risk Assessment
We categorize tools by risk level, identify the highest-exposure scenarios, and document the gap between current use and a defensible posture.
Week 3
Policy Development
We draft acceptable use policies, data handling guidelines, and decision rights documentation based on your business context and risk tolerance.
Week 4
Briefing and Roadmap
We deliver an executive briefing on your AI governance posture, a prioritized implementation roadmap, and recommendations for ongoing governance oversight.
