Know how your business uses AI and what to do next.
Whether your business already uses AI or is planning to start, put clear rules, ownership and proportionate controls in place.
The AI Governance Baseline is a fixed-scope £495 engagement to document your AI use, identify material risks and set practical next steps.
Eight questions. Around three minutes. No contact details required.
You may need this if…
- Staff are using personal ChatGPT, Claude or other AI accounts for work.
- Customer, candidate or other sensitive information may be entered into AI tools.
- AI is influencing customer, candidate or other material business decisions.
- AI features are being switched on inside existing business software without a clear approval process.
- Management cannot confidently list which AI tools and use cases are currently in use.
AI Governance Baseline
£495
Get a practical view of your current or planned AI use, the material risks and the controls worth prioritising.
We review up to five AI use cases and prepare a set of working documents for your organisation. Management can see what needs attention, who owns the actions and what should happen next.
Your input and delivery
You complete a short questionnaire and join a 30-minute management discussion and a 30-minute handover. We may need clarification as we review the information.
Normally delivered within five working days of receiving the required information.
Tell us briefly what you need. Sending an enquiry does not commit you to an engagement.
What you receive
- AI tool and use-case register - a record of the uses reviewed and who owns them. View the free register starter.
- Risk categorisation for up to five use cases - including sensitive-data exposure and proportionate controls.
- Short, tailored AI acceptable-use policy and one-page staff guidance. View the free policy starter.
- Action and risk register - priorities, accountable owners, targets and status.
- Concise management summary and a 30-minute handover.
A focused review with tailored documents and prioritised actions. Your organisation implements the controls; we flag where specialist advice is needed.
How it works
Understand your AI use
Complete the questionnaire and discuss your current or planned use with us.
Review risks and practical controls
We review up to five use cases and prepare the register, policy, staff guidance and prioritised actions.
Agree the next steps
Use the handover to understand the findings, clarify ownership and decide what happens next.
Practical, evidence-based governance
The approach is informed by current UK AI and data-protection guidance, ICO expectations, NIST AI risk-management principles and ISO/IEC 42001 concepts where proportionate. The focus is on practical controls for smaller organisations rather than unnecessary complexity.
We normally assess processes and use cases rather than asking for sensitive client, customer or employee data.
About Baseline Governance
Baseline Governance provides practical AI governance support for smaller organisations, helping management understand how AI is being used, where material risks exist and which controls are proportionate.
Our work is led by professionals with senior experience delivering complex technology, data and AI programmes, including within large and regulated organisations. We focus on practical, proportionate governance that smaller organisations can put into use quickly.
