AI Governance Advisory

Trust By Design.

For The AI That Shapes Your Decisions.

AI governance advisory puts clear, practical guardrails around the AI systems that influence your decisions, without turning you into a law firm or an MLOps team.

We focus less on the code and more on how AI gets chosen, approved, used and monitored, so it stays aligned with your business, your regulators and your risk appetite.

In a regulated business, an AI decision you cannot defend is not a productivity problem. It is a liability.

EU AI Act Article 4 is Already in Force

Organisations deploying AI systems must ensure staff have sufficient AI literacy. The Regulation of Artificial Intelligence Bill 2026 is in motion. For organisations in pharma, life sciences, medtech and financial services, governance is not a future consideration. It is a current obligation.

What We Do

Map the AI that shapes decisions.

We identify where AI and generative AI are already influencing decisions about patients, customers, employees and operations, then classify each use by risk and regulatory exposure.

Build the artefacts you need to evidence it.

Use case records, risk and impact assessments, evaluation summaries, monitoring plans and runbooks, written in plain language so business, compliance and technical teams work from the same documents.

Design a right sized governance framework.

Simple, tiered processes for moving AI from idea to production: who is involved, which checks are required, what gets documented at each stage. It becomes part of how you already operate, whether that is your QMS, validation and change control in life sciences or risk and compliance in financial services, rather than a separate system bolted on top.

Bridge to regulation, without giving legal advice.

We align your internal governance with the frameworks that apply to you, from FDA and GxP expectations in life sciences through to the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001. Your counsel interprets the rules. We turn that interpretation into repeatable processes, templates and behaviours.

Make decision rights clear.

Using simple RACI style mappings, we define who approves a new AI use, who monitors it, and who responds when something goes wrong. No ambiguity about who stands over the decision.

How We Work

Three Stages. A Defined Output at Each One.

 Three Stages. A Defined Output at Each One.

Stage 01 — Audit and Assessment

We begin with an in-person assessment of your organisation's current AI position. This covers your existing and pipeline AI tools, your regulatory obligations, your data governance practices and the degree to which current activity is documented, governed and auditable.

The assessment involves your leadership team and relevant function heads. It is not a survey. It is a structured working session that surfaces the gaps, the exposures and the priorities.

Deliverable: A comprehensive written assessment of your current AI governance position across regulatory compliance, operational risk, data practices and internal accountability.

Stage 02 — Governance Roadmap

Based on the assessment, we develop a structured roadmap for your organisation. This is not a generic framework, it is built around your sector, your regulatory context, your team structure and the specific gaps the assessment identified.

The roadmap covers four areas: regulatory and compliance alignment, risk classification and management, governance framework design and implementation and audit readiness.

Deliverable: A full governance roadmap with prioritised actions, accountability assignments, timeline and the documentation structure needed to demonstrate compliance.

Stage 03 — Implementation

For organisations that want ongoing support through implementation, we work as a retained partner, reviewing progress, adapting the roadmap as regulation evolves and providing the senior governance expertise your team needs without the cost of a full-time hire.

Deliverable: Ongoing advisory support tied to the roadmap milestones your organisation has committed to.

Certainty Drives Growth

At the end of a Governance Advisory engagement, organisations have something most do not: certainty. Certainty that they are on the right path, that implementation can scale and that they are as covered as current regulation requires.

That certainty is what the board wants, what customers are starting to ask for and what an auditor will eventually need to see.
