AI / Governance — EU AI Act
AI Governance & Compliance
Technical compliance, not legal theatre: classification, documentation, logging and governance built into the systems — in partnership with specialized legal counsel where required.
The technical half of a legal obligation
The EU AI Act regulates systems, and systems are our department. Classification depends on what the system actually does; documentation must describe what is actually built; logging must actually exist. Law firms interpret the Act — someone still has to make your architecture comply with it. That is this engagement. Where interpretation is genuinely legal, we work in partnership with specialized legal counsel rather than pretending engineering opinions are legal advice.
What we build
- System inventory and classification. Every AI-touching system catalogued and mapped to the Act’s risk classes — including the shadow-IT ones procurement never saw.
- Technical documentation. The architecture, data provenance, and evaluation records the Act expects — generated from the systems, so it stays true after the audit.
- Logging and traceability. Inputs, outputs, model versions and human overrides, retained and queryable — evidence, not vibes, when a regulator or customer asks.
- Governance process. Who approves a new AI use case, on what criteria, with what review cadence — sized so it runs in your organization rather than in a binder.
The sovereignty synergy
Compliance simplifies dramatically when data and models sit under European jurisdiction. Where that is the right call, the Sovereign Cloud hub is the substrate answer to the governance question.
