03 · ONGOING RETAINER
Continuous compliance monitoring, regulatory update integration, new AI system assessment,
and audit support so your governance infrastructure stays current as enforcement begins.
WHY ONGOING MATTERS
The EU AI Act does not end with initial compliance. From August 2026, active enforcement begins. The European AI Office, national competent authorities, and sector regulators will issue guidance, investigate complaints, and conduct audits. New Annex III interpretations will change the classification landscape. Your organisation will deploy new AI tools that require assessment.
AI Governance-as-a-Service keeps your compliance infrastructure operational and current through a structured monthly retainer that handles the ongoing work so your team does not have to.
Regulatory updates from the EDPB, European AI Office, and national competent authorities translated into specific governance actions relevant to your organisation and sector.
MONTHLY · WRITTEN REPORT
A living register of every AI system in use classified by EU AI Act risk level, with owner, purpose, and status tracked in Microsoft Lists. No spreadsheet, no guesswork.
ON-DEMAND · AUTO-WORKFLOW
Intake workflows built in Copilot Studio for FRIA requests, DSAR submissions, and new AI use case reviews triggered from Teams, logged automatically, and routed to the appropriate reviewer.
QUARTERLY · BOARD-READY REPORT
Structured site architecture with document libraries for FRIAs, DPIAs, governance policies, incident records, and audit artefacts. Controlled permissions, version history, and sensitivity labels applied.
ONGOING · MANAGED UPDATES
Every GaaS activity is delivered remotely and documented in your Evidence Vault. Monthly briefings are written reports, not calls so your team receives the intelligence without calendar load. Quarterly health checks include a structured meeting with your compliance lead or legal counsel.
What your team provides: notification of new AI deployments (via the Copilot Studio intake agent), access to relevant business context during quarterly reviews, and escalation decisions on high-risk findings. Everything else is handled through the governance infrastructure already in place.
