AI Governance for SMEs: What You Actually Need Before You Deploy
Not a framework. Four things on two sides of paper — an inventory, a never-list, a named human, and what happens when it is wrong.

Not a framework. Four things on two sides of paper — an inventory, a never-list, a named human, and what happens when it is wrong.
Document workflow, recalls, and care navigation support — where AI genuinely helps general practice, inside NHS information governance rather than around it.
POD chasing, invoice matching, status queries, and load quoting — the transport office is one of the best-fit environments for AI there is.
Event enquiries answered at midnight, reviews replied to in your voice, allergen paperwork that keeps itself current — where AI pays back in restaurants, hotels, and venues.
The written layer of practice — proposals, planning documents, minutes, RFIs — automates well. The architecture stays yours, and the profession's rules make the boundary easy.
Faster quotes, job-specific health and safety paperwork, and site notes that become records — where AI genuinely helps a UK construction firm, and what to keep away from it.
RFQs, order entry, quality paperwork, and supplier chasing — the office layer around the shop floor is where AI pays back for a 20–200 person manufacturer.
Job ads, call notes, CRM hygiene, and candidate comms automate beautifully. Screening is where the EU AI Act and UK GDPR are looking — here's how to draw the line.
Listing copy, enquiry triage, vendor updates, and compliance checklists — where AI genuinely pays back in a UK agency branch, with honest costs.
Recalls, letters, front-desk FAQ, and treatment plan follow-ups — the operational layer where AI pays back fast, and the governance that keeps the CQC and UK GDPR happy.
The Act follows the market, not the company registration. What went live on 2 August 2026, what moved to December 2027, and how to work out which half reaches you.
