Why AI Must Be Governed Where the Work Happens

Governing AI in the Workflow: Why role-based access, guard rails and cost controls belong inside the systems where people and agents work.

Alan Moore argues, from years of transformation work in consulting, e-commerce and call-centre operations, that most companies govern AI in the wrong place. The usual approach puts controls around the technology: a policy, an approved tool list, a review of the model. Alan argues that AI has to be governed where the work happens, inside the workflows, systems and roles where people and agents actually act. In the governance platform Alan built out of RANDEMRETAIL's own AI program, staff sign in and get only the AI capability their role allows, with the guard rails and cost controls already in place. Listeners leave with a simple test for whether their AI controls sit next to the work or only next to the tools.

For podcast hosts, Alan brings a grounded perspective on AI governance, AI operations, SaaS entrepreneurship and enterprise transformation. He can speak about why AI needs to be governed where work happens, not simply where the technology sits, and why organisations need visibility into what AI is doing, who or what is responsible, what actions are being taken, what those actions cost and what impact they can have across the wider business.

Alan’s perspective is shaped by hands-on experience building SaaS products and transforming organisations for the AI era.
