Category: Guides & Templates

Practical guides, templates and buying frameworks for teams implementing AI governance — the working documents rather than the theory. This section covers the artefacts a compliance function actually needs to run a programme: AI risk assessment templates and the fields that make them defensible, AI inventory and register structures, evaluation criteria for governance software, checklists for classification and procurement review, and the evidence standards that separate a usable record from a box-ticking exercise. Each guide is written to be applied: the aim is that a compliance lead, DPO or risk manager can take the structure described here and put it to work in their own organisation, whether that means adapting a template into a spreadsheet, building requirements for a procurement exercise, or benchmarking an existing process against what auditors and regulators will expect. Where a guide relates to specific obligations under the EU AI Act or ISO/IEC 42001, it links back to the detailed analysis in those sections.
