Your firm bought AI. Your consultants cannot deploy it. Here is the governance layer. Built across 15+ engagements and PE portfolio operations.
Every AI deployment passes through 12 cryptographically-signed gates. No bypass. No exceptions. No "urgent" deploys without verification. This is what makes AI billable and board-defensible.
Client data integrity verified before AI touches it. Scope drift, engagement boundaries, confidentiality exposure — caught at the boundary.
Full test suite must pass. No exceptions for urgency. If the test fails, the deliverable fails.
Hash-verified artifact comparison. If the workpaper changed, you know exactly why.
Risk-tiered: confidence above 85% auto-executes. 70-85% requires validation. Below 70% escalates. Client-facing decisions always escalate.
HMAC-signed audit trail. "Done" is cryptographically verifiable, not a partner email.
Confidentiality logging, model drift detection, rollback triggers, engagement committee reporting. Gates 6-12 in the full operating model.
