Frequently asked.

What is an AI Governance Audit?
An operational governance assessment that produces a structured view of how AI is actually being used across an organization — across teams, tools and workflows — and identifies governance gaps that warrant prioritized action.
Who is it for?
Leaders of organizations where AI usage has emerged faster than governance — typically professional services firms between 25 and 250 employees, but the engagement adapts to smaller and larger contexts.
How long does it take?
Most engagements deliver a complete governance view within a single operational quarter. The Intake itself is a short conversational assessment that can be completed in one working session.
Do we need formal AI policies before starting?
No. The audit is designed for organizations that have already started using AI without a formal governance frame. Visibility comes before policy.
Is this compliance consulting?
No. This is an operational governance assessment. It is not a legal, regulatory, compliance or cybersecurity audit. It produces operational clarity that compliance work can later build on.
What if we already use AI responsibly?
Responsible practice in pockets does not equal organizational governance. The audit verifies the operational shape of usage and surfaces what remains implicit — even in mature contexts.
What do we receive?
A coherent set of deliverables: executive summary, findings report, risk register, governance gap analysis, prioritized recommendations and a 90-day implementation roadmap.
What happens after the audit?
An executive review session aligns leadership around the findings and the roadmap. From there, organizations typically move into structured implementation — and, when relevant, into AI Decision System design work.
How much involvement is required from our teams?
The audit is designed to minimize disruption. It relies on a small number of structured exchanges with designated contributors, scoped during qualification.
Can small organizations benefit?
Yes. The Visibility Snapshot is sized for smaller contexts and produces a meaningful governance reading rather than a generic overview.
