Artificial intelligence is already influencing how many organizations operate, make decisions, and report results. In many cases, AI is embedded in vendor platforms, internal systems, analytics tools, and employee workflows without clear visibility or formal oversight.
As a result, many companies are taking a closer look at where AI is being used, how it may be affecting important decisions, and whether appropriate governance and controls are in place.
Organizations that are taking AI risk seriously are beginning by identifying where AI is already present across the business and how it may be influencing operations, reporting, and decision-making.
They are also evaluating where risk may exist, including issues related to data use, explainability, third-party vendors, and potential operational disruption. At the same time, they are reviewing whether ownership, documentation, oversight, and monitoring are keeping pace with actual usage.
For many organizations, an AI risk assessment is the most practical place to begin.
It helps leadership establish a clearer understanding of current AI exposure — including where AI is being used, what risks may exist, and where additional oversight may be needed. It also provides a useful basis for deciding what actions should come next.
Some organizations may choose to perform that work internally. Others prefer an independent outside assessment that brings structure, objectivity, and experience with the kinds of issues already emerging across organizations.
AI Assurance provides a focused, independent review designed to help organizations understand how AI may be affecting operations, reporting, and decision-making.
We identify where AI is being used, evaluate key risks, review governance and controls, and provide a practical scorecard and action plan in an efficient and minimally disruptive way.
If you'd like to better understand how AI may be affecting your operations, reporting, or decision-making, we'd be glad to talk through whether an AI Assurance review is appropriate — and which Foundational level fits your organization best.
