Artificial Intelligence Governance Assessment

Artificial Intelligence Governance Assessment

AI is entering organisations through approved tools, vendor platforms, staff experimentation, productivity initiatives and embedded system features.

This assessment gives Chairs, CEOs, Directors, CFOs, CROs and Company Secretaries a structured board-level read on whether AI is visible, owned, governed through clear risk boundaries, subject to appropriate oversight, and supported by evidence.

What it covers

Ten questions across five areas: AI visibility and ownership; risk appetite and decision authority; human oversight and automated decisions; vendor, model and data dependency; and assurance, incidents and board records.

What you receive

• A completable Artificial Intelligence Governance Assessment (PDF with response fields)
• An interpretation of the gaps and uncertainties identified in your responses
• A reasoned conclusion, including whether any further action is needed
• A one-page summary you can share with the Chair, CEO or Company Secretary, or table at a board meeting

This is for your board if

• AI is being used, tested or embedded without a reliable inventory, or without board visibility of material use
• AI appears in reports as innovation, productivity or technology activity without clear governance ownership
• high-risk AI use cases do not have clear approval gates before deployment or material change
• AI-shaped decisions may affect customers, staff, pricing, eligibility, access to services or regulated decisions
• human review exists, but its authority, quality or effectiveness has not been tested
• vendor AI, embedded AI tools, foundation models or fourth-party dependencies are not visible at board level
• personal information, confidential data or commercially sensitive information may be entering AI tools without clear controls
• AI testing focuses on performance or productivity while bias, accuracy, security, customer impact and escalation receive limited attention
• board or committee records do not clearly show how material AI decisions were challenged, approved, conditioned or followed up
