Not sure where to start with AI governance?
You don't have to figure it all out at once.
Start where it makes sense for your situation. No theory — concrete steps with clear outcomes. From initial clarity through policies and training to audit readiness.
N · A · T · I · V · E
Six steps from "we don't know what applies to us" to "we have it under control." Start where you are today.
Where are you today? Where do you need to get?
Each step moves you into a specific state. After each step, you will know what you have completed, what you can do, and what you can demonstrate in an audit.
Navigate
You gain a clear view of what applies to you, what matters most, and what the next step should be.
L1Align
You set the basic rules and responsibilities so AI use becomes safe and consistent.
L2Transform
You help people use AI in daily work so it genuinely improves performance.
L3Innovate
You create an environment where new ideas emerge, people share what works, and the organisation finds better ways of working on its own.
L4Verify
You understand your limits, what needs to be evidenced, and where specialist support makes sense.
L5Execute
You prepare a clear brief and move into delivery with the right partner.
Get clarity on your situation
You gain a clear view of what applies to you, what matters most, and what the next step should be. You do not need to read the regulations. You just need to know where you are and where to head.
Set the foundations
You set the basic rules and responsibilities. People will know what is allowed, what is not, and why. The company will have documentation that protects against risks.
Change how people work
You help people genuinely change how they work with AI. This is not about training on a tool. It is about people being able to use AI in their real, everyday work.
Create room for innovation
You create an environment where new ideas emerge, people share what works, and the organisation finds better ways of working with AI on its own.
Confirm the boundaries
You understand your limits, what needs to be evidenced, and where specialist support makes sense. Before you invest more or scale further.
Move into delivery
You prepare a clear brief and move into delivery with the right partner. You know what, you know why, you know with whom.
You do not have to start from scratch
The framework is not a list of services. It is a sequence. Enter where it makes sense for your situation.
Start with L0 if you first need to understand your situation.
Start with L1 if people already use AI, but everyone does it differently.
Start with L2 if you already have the basics and want to genuinely change how people work.
Start with L3 if you already see early attempts and want to turn them into new ideas, stronger collaboration, and continuous improvement.
Start with L4 if you are already facing demanding customers, audits, contractual requirements, or more sensitive use cases.
Start with L5 if you have everything in place and need the right partner for implementation.
