A fast-track approval lane streamlines the sign-off process for low-risk AI use cases, requiring only a single accountable manager's approval. Eligibility includes projects with no personal data or automated decisions. Embedded checkpoints ensure governance throughout, while audits prevent misuse. Successful implementations demonstrate both time and cost savings.
Implementing a standardised scoring model for AI use case triage expedites decision-making and enhances risk evaluation. By objectively assessing ideas on business value, feasibility, risk, and alignment, organixations can filter out non-AI requests and identify true AI opportunities, fostering organisational learning and refining data governance practices over time.

This content discusses the integration of AI into the DASUD framework, emphasising the importance of defining problems and capturing AI use cases effectively. It outlines a structured intake process and a tiered approval workflow to streamline AI implementation while ensuring governance. The goal is to create organisational learning and maximise return on AI investments.
