AI Oversight & Control

Keep your AI use transparent, accountable, and safely managed every step.

AI Control

Clear AI Control

AI Oversight & Control

Artificial intelligence is already being used across most organisations.
What is often missing is clear, ongoing ownership.

AI creates risk not because it exists, but because it spreads informally. Tools are adopted quietly. Use cases evolve. Decisions are made without being recorded. Over time, no one can clearly explain what is happening, why it is acceptable, or who is accountable.

AI Oversight & Control exists to solve that problem.

It provides organisations with a standing, external function that continuously oversees how AI is being used, how risk is managed, and how decisions are documented — without requiring them to build that capability internally.

What AI Oversight & Control is

AI Oversight & Control is an ongoing governance and risk function.

It is not a one-off assessment, a consultancy programme or targeting the introduction of new tools.

It is a subscription-based service designed to ensure AI use remains visible, controlled, and defensible as your organisation grows and changes.

Why organisations use this service

Most organisations reach the same point.

AI is already in use.
Questions begin to surface from leadership, legal, compliance, clients, or auditors.
The organisation realises it cannot confidently answer:

what AI is being used
where data is involved
how risks are being managed
who is accountable for decisions

At that stage, doing nothing increases exposure.

AI Oversight & Control allows organisations to respond calmly and credibly, without freezing progress or over-engineering controls.

What the service provides

AI Oversight & Control delivers five outcomes on an ongoing basis.

Ongoing visibility
A maintained view of how AI is being used across the organisation, including changes over time.
Active risk ownership
A live AI risk register that reflects real use, real exposure, and agreed mitigations.
Governance continuity
Policies, guidance, and controls that stay aligned with how the organisation actually operates, rather than drifting out of date.
Decision support
Clear, timely answers to questions such as “can we do this?”, “should we stop this?”, and “what needs to change?”
External defensibility
Evidence that AI risk is being actively overseen and reviewed, suitable for boards, auditors, clients, and regulators.

How this works in practice

Oversight is delivered through a predictable, low-friction rhythm.

Regular structured reviews with nominated owners
Change-triggered check-ins when AI use expands or shifts
Clear documentation of decisions, risks, and mitigations
Advisory access for emerging questions

The emphasis is on maintaining control, not creating work.

Who this is for

AI Oversight & Control is designed for organisations that:

are already using AI in everyday work
operate in regulated or client-sensitive environments
need clarity without disruption
want independent oversight rather than internal politics
understand that AI risk is ongoing, not a one-time exercise

Who this is not for

This service is not for organisations looking for AI experimentation, rapid tool deployment, or innovation procedure, and it is also not aimed at selling platforms, automate everything, or bypass accountability.

Engagement model

AI Oversight & Control is provided on a subscription basis, typically monthly, with scope aligned to organisational size, complexity, and risk exposure.

This allows organisations to treat AI governance as a maintained function rather than a recurring emergency.

Why this works

AI risk does not come from a single decision.
It emerges quietly as tools change, access expands, and behaviour evolves.

AI Oversight & Control exists to ensure that visibility, accountability, and control keep pace — without requiring organisations to build and staff a new internal function prematurely.

Next step

If your organisation needs a clear, defensible approach to AI use without over-engineering or delay, AI Oversight & Control provides that stability.

The starting point is a short conversation to understand how AI is currently being used and where oversight is most needed. Many oversight engagements begin with a focused period of policy and framework design. Once position, ownership, controls and evidence are in place, the oversight routine can concentrate on monitoring change rather than writing rules. That upfront work is described in our AI Policies & Governance Frameworks service.
