Operate an AI governance programme

Internal teams govern a portfolio by combining shared policy and accountability with system-specific plans, assurance, and decisions.

Programme workflow

  1. 1Establish shared policies, roles, approval rules, and framework context.
  2. 2Create Projects that match programme boundaries without treating them as AI Systems.
  3. 3Register the AI portfolio and assign system owners.
  4. 4Use system-specific classification and Governance Plans to create work queues.
  5. 5Reuse controls and evidence where valid while keeping traceability.
  6. 6Review portfolio Findings, Risks, approvals, and recurring reviews.
  7. 7Monitor systems and coordinate reassessment across owners.

Portfolio visibility

Use cross-project views to prioritize overdue work, evidence requests, approvals, expiring decisions, incidents, and high residual risks. The portfolio view coordinates work; system records retain the detailed governance truth.
