Our engagement
Defined scope, agreed before we begin.
Each engagement has a clear shape and a clear output. Which one fits depends on the size of your board, your sector and what prompted the question, so we scope it in conversation rather than from a price list.
Start here
Board briefing
A single session that brings the whole board to a shared understanding of what AI means for directors, with a live measurement of where your directors believe you stand.
- Short preparatory call with the chair, chief executive or company secretary
- Live five-minute pulse measurement with your directors in the room
- What Australian regulators and standards now expect, in plain terms
- Where director exposure actually sits, and what good oversight looks like
- A one-page board note with recommended next steps
The usual first engagement, and often enough on its own to get a board moving.
The core engagement
Governance assessment and roadmap
A full assessment of your position, scored by category, with every recommendation traced back to the instrument that motivates it.
- Organisation profile covering jurisdiction, sector, size and structure
- A baseline inventory of AI use and tools, including unsanctioned use
- Director and management questionnaires, with evidence review
- Scoring across strategy, accountability, risk, privacy, suppliers, training and monitoring
- A board-ready report: maturity score, findings, evidence gaps and priorities
- A prioritised roadmap across 30 days, 90 days and 12 months
Available self-service online, or facilitated with your board and interpreted in the room.
Stay in control
Ongoing support
The part most organisations skip. Continuing advice between board meetings so that a report becomes progress rather than a document.
- Regular review of the action plan with the owners accountable for it
- A governance health view: score, trend, overdue actions and evidence gaps
- Monitoring of Australian, state, sector and international developments
- Periodic reassessment of the areas carrying the most risk
- Board pack summaries and agenda wording, ready to use
Scaled to the size and cadence of your board.
What every engagement includes
Whichever path you take, every finding is traced to the instrument that motivates it, and the report tells you plainly which kind of instrument it is.
A legal or regulatory obligation
Something you must do.
A regulator expectation
Something a regulator has said it expects to see.
A recognised standard
ISO/IEC 42001, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, the Voluntary AI Safety Standard.
An internal governance choice
Sensible, but a decision rather than a requirement.
Those four are genuinely different. Collapsing them into a single list of requirements is how organisations spend money on the wrong things.
How the work runs
Measure. Prioritise. Sustain.
Establish where you stand
A structured assessment across your board and management. You receive a maturity score by category, the gaps that carry the most risk, and a clear view of your current exposure.
Agree what matters most
Findings written in board language, each traced to the standard, regulation or duty behind it. A prioritised plan across 30 days, 90 days and 12 months, with named owners and board agenda items.
Keep it current
Governance is continuous. Actions tracked to completion, evidence gathered as you go, regulatory change monitored, and periodic reassessment so the board can see the trend rather than take it on trust.
Not sure which one fits?
That is the normal starting point. Take the free pulse check, or book a short conversation and we will work it out together.
