Artificial Intelligence Strategy Workshop

Book Free Consultation ›

Evolve North’s AI Strategy Workshop is designed to help organisations understand the broader impacts of utilising and deploying AI tools within your organisation, including “inhouse” tools like M365 Copilot. Providing overview across key considerations and a recommendations and findings report, to ensure appropriate adoption and deployment of AI tools.

AI offers clear opportunities but also brings new responsibilities. Taking a structured approach now will help ensure adoption is secure, compliant and trusted.

Key Considerations for Implementing AI

To embed and deploy AI effectively and securely within your organisation, there are several areas to review:

  • Current use and future need: Which AI tools are already in use (authorised or otherwise)? Where could AI add value, and what functionality have suppliers introduced?
  • AI Policy: Define accountability, relevant legislation and standards (e.g. EU AI Act, ISO 42001), acceptable and prohibited uses, and your approach to supplier due diligence.
  • Risk assessment: Adapt existing processes to address AI-specific risks such as transparency, explainability, bias, accuracy, cyber threats and the use of personal data in training.
  • Supplier assurance: Check that third-party due diligence covers AI risks.
  • Automated decision-making: Ensure appropriate human oversight remains in place.
  • Procurement and contracts: Add AI-specific requirements, including obligations for suppliers to notify you of new AI functionality.
  • Testing and validation: Assess solutions before deployment and monitor outputs against expectations.
  • Staff awareness & AI literacy: Update training to include AI-specific risks and organisational responsibilities.
