AI GRC Assessment

Overview

Before you can build effective AI governance, you need to know where you stand. The AI GRC Assessment is the starting point for every engagement — a structured evaluation of your organization's AI governance maturity, risk posture, and operational controls, delivering an evidence-based baseline and a clear path forward.

This is the ideal starting point for organizations that are new to AI governance or want to validate their current approach before making larger investments.

What We Assess

• Strategy & Leadership — AI governance sponsorship, organizational structure, and strategic alignment
• Risk Management — Current risk identification, assessment, and mitigation practices for AI systems
• Data Governance — Data quality, lineage, privacy, and security practices supporting AI initiatives
• Controls & Compliance — Existing policies, controls, and compliance processes for AI oversight
• Culture & Capability — AI literacy, training programs, and organizational readiness across teams

Deliverables

• Sentinel AI Maturity Index — quantified maturity score across five governance dimensions
• Sentinel Risk Register — comprehensive risk inventory with scoring and prioritized mitigations
• Sentinel AI Readiness Score — readiness across leadership, workforce, technology, and operations
• 30/60/90-Day Action Roadmap — prioritized controls with implementation sequencing
• Executive Report — board-ready summary of findings, risks, and recommendations

Approach

Our assessment combines stakeholder interviews, policy and process reviews, technical environment scans, and a validated maturity model calibrated for mid-sized organizations. The process typically takes 2–3 weeks from kickoff to delivery.

Who Needs This

Organizations that are deploying or planning to deploy AI tools and need to understand their governance posture before regulators, customers, or auditors ask. Also ideal for organizations preparing for AI-related certifications or responding to due diligence requests from partners or clients.
