ServiceNow/AI governance

AI Control Tower & AI Risk

See where AI is operating, who owns it and whether it is properly controlled.

Establish a governed AI inventory, intake process and evidence model in ServiceNow, connected to risk, controls, services and the wider technology estate.

The business problem

The capability exists. The operating conditions often do not.

AI is appearing across cloud platforms, copilots, SaaS products and locally built agents faster than governance processes can keep pace.

Registers alone do not provide operational control. Organisations need ownership, workflow, evidence and a clear understanding of discovery boundaries.

What changes

From fragmented activity to a controlled outcome.

Current position

Before

AI assets, owners, risks and approvals are scattered across systems and spreadsheets.

AI Digital intervention

With the control tower

Inventory, intake, assessment, controls and evidence are connected through ServiceNow workflows.

Resulting position

After

Leaders can see governed AI activity and teams have a practical route for introducing new use cases safely.

How it works

A practical route from the current problem to an operational result.

01

Discover & register

Bring known AI assets and supported discovery sources into one controlled inventory.

02

Classify & own

Establish purpose, type, criticality, ownership and accountable business context.

03

Assess & control

Link risks, policies, controls, assessments and evidence to the relevant AI record.

04

Operate & improve

Run intake, review, exception and reporting processes as an ongoing capability.

Capabilities

What the solution brings together.

01

AI inventory

A consistent record of agents, models and AI-enabled services within the supported scope.

02

Intake & approval

A governed route from proposed use case to assessment, decision and implementation.

03

Risk and control mapping

Trace obligations, risks, controls, testing and evidence.

04

Service and CMDB context

Connect AI use to applications, services, owners and operational dependencies.

05

Reporting and oversight

Provide leadership views of ownership, status, exposure and outstanding action.

06

Integration-aware design

Be explicit about what each source exposes and where manual or custom integration is required.

What you receive

Possible engagement outputs.

Scope, deliverables and ongoing responsibilities are agreed for each engagement.

  • Defined AI inventory model
  • Governed intake workflow
  • Risk and control relationships
  • Ownership and accountability model
  • Oversight dashboards and reporting
  • Integration and discovery roadmap

Approach & potential benefits

Governance that operates, not another static register

The value comes from joining records to decisions, controls, workflow and evidence. Discovery coverage must be stated honestly: some sources expose agents and linked models, while standalone models or deeper relationships may require other methods.

Where it fits

Use this solution when…

  • You cannot confidently answer where AI is already operating.
  • New AI use cases lack a consistent approval and risk route.
  • Risk, technology and business teams hold different versions of the truth.
