Governance Framework

A governance framework is a structured set of policies, procedures, roles, and accountability mechanisms that organizations establish to manage and oversee their AI systems and operations. It typically includes decision-making processes, risk management protocols, compliance requirements, and performance metrics designed to ensure AI systems operate safely, ethically, and in accordance with applicable regulations. For enterprises, a robust governance framework is essential for managing AI-related risks, ensuring regulatory compliance, maintaining stakeholder trust, and establishing clear accountability across technical and business teams involved in AI development and deployment.
