Solution##Compliance and regulatory alignment

  • EU AI Act: Shapes the system by requiring risk categorisation (e.g., high-risk AI systems like logistics route optimisation), transparency in model logic, and human oversight checkpoints for critical decisions.
  • ISO/IEC 23053: Guides the safe design of AI systems by specifying lifecycle documentation, risk assessments, and data quality controls for ML models.
  • Internal AI governance policy: Requires fairness reviews for models, transparency in decision logic, and audit trails for model updates.

  • Mitigation 1: Set monitoring thresholds for API availability; document alerts and mitigation actions in incident logs.
  • Mitigation 2: Implement workflow gating requiring fairness checks before deployment; maintain signed approval forms in the deployment package.
  • Mitigation 3: Conduct peer reviews for model logic and outputs; document findings and decisions in a model review log.Key artifacts: Model cards, risk register, deployment approvals, access logs, incident reports.

Audit readiness and escalation workflow

  • Audit readiness practices:Automated log capture for API requests, model predictions, and access events.

  • Quarterly compliance reviews with documentation updates.

  • Escalation workflow:Level 1: Minor anomaly detected → Document in monitoring log, model owner reviews.

  • Level 2: Confirmed fairness issue → Notify compliance team, pause model updates, conduct fairness audit.

  • Level 3: Regulatory breach detected → Notify legal team, inform regulators, initiate rollback, and publish post-incident report. What this example does well

  • Connects specific external frameworks and internal policies to system design and transparency requirements.

  • Maps risks across technical, operational, and ethical dimensions with clear ownership assignments.

  • Proposes actionable mitigation steps that align with compliance needs and ensures a strong documentation trail.

Tips for applying this skill in your role.

  • Use a risk register as a dynamic tool—update it regularly as risks evolve and mitigation strategies are implemented.
  • Ensure mitigation actions are practical, realistic, and easy to integrate into your team’s existing workflows.
  • Embed audit readiness into your daily practices—don’t wait for an audit to start documenting decisions and actions.
