Federated AI Governance Model
What is the Federated AI Governance Model?
A Federated AI Governance Model is a structure where AI governance is shared across the organization. Instead of one central team controlling everything, each business unit has its own AI responsibilities, while a central group sets the overall rules.
Think of it like federal vs. state government:
- The central teams sets the laws, standards, and guardrails.
- The business units apply those rules to their own AI projects.
It balances consistency with flexibility.
What does a Federated AI Governance Model Do?
A federated model:
- Gives each business unit ownership of its AI work
- Ensures all teams follow the same governance standards
- Allows faster decision-making closer to the business
- Keeps risk, compliance, and oversight aligned centrally
- Prevents "shadow AI" while also avoiding bottlenecks
- Scales AI across large or complex organizations
It is ideal for enterprises with multiple divisions products, or regions.
