AI Governance Diagnostic™

Know where your AI governance stands before regulatory scrutiny does.

A fixed-fee assessment, delivered in three to four weeks. I map your AI use cases against the regulatory and governance frameworks that apply to you — EU AI Act, ISO 42001, and Gulf/MENA regulatory expectations — score the gaps, and hand your board a remediation roadmap it can act on.

It is built for Gulf financial institutions preparing for supervisory review, and for other regulated organizations — including those with European exposure — that need a clear picture of where their AI governance may fall short before a regulator, an auditor, or a counterparty's due diligence team finds it first.

Why an external diagnostic

Internal teams know their systems best, but that can make it difficult to step back and identify governance gaps objectively — particularly when requirements span multiple regulatory environments. An external diagnostic provides an independent perspective, tests the governance system against the frameworks that apply to the organization, and identifies where evidence, ownership or controls need to be strengthened.

How the engagement unfolds

The Diagnostic is the entry point. Most clients continue into Build; some add ongoing Monitor. Each phase is scoped and priced separately — there is no obligation to continue.

Phase 1·3–4 weeks

Diagnose

The AI Governance Diagnostic: map AI use cases against the regulatory and governance frameworks that apply to you — EU AI Act, ISO 42001, and Gulf/MENA regulatory expectations. Score the gaps and identify what a regulatory review would surface first.

Output

A board-ready risk assessment and remediation roadmap.

Phase 2·8–12 weeks

Build

Build the operational governance system: AI inventory and risk ratings, decision rights, human oversight, vendor controls, and monitoring, aligned to ISO 42001 and the applicable regulatory regimes.

Output

An operational AI management system that produces audit-ready evidence.

Phase 3·Optional

Monitor

Ongoing regulatory monitoring, framework updates, and board briefings as the EU AI Act and MENA frameworks evolve.

Output

Continuous governance intelligence and executive reporting.

Engagements are scoped before they begin. Delivered in English or Arabic. The Diagnostic does not constitute legal advice or a certification, and applicability of any regulatory framework depends on the facts, deployment context, and relevant jurisdiction.
