Overview

The toolkit supports teams designing, procuring and operating AI products. It provides practical government guidance, rather than a new AI statute.[1]

Governance approach

It aligns with the Orange Book and covers identifying, treating, monitoring and reporting risks throughout an AI system’s lifecycle. Multidisciplinary teams should include legal and compliance expertise. Its risk categories address fairness, transparency, accountability, security and the ability to contest outputs and seek redress.[1]
