Market data and deal flow

What risks belong in the purchasing budget?

Budget for supervision, exception handling and data governance—not just implementation and minutes. The ICO maintains AI and data-protection guidance and a risk toolkit for assessing effects on individuals’ rights and freedoms. These are relevant diligence resources, not certifications that a supplier or deployment is compliant. (ico.org.uk)

The desk recommends a written acceptance checklist covering:

  • Approved uses and prohibited technical or safety advice.
  • Booking permissions and human override.
  • Personal-data access, retention and supplier responsibilities.
  • Monitoring ownership and incident handling.
  • Usage caps and peak-volume pricing.
  • Account ownership, export and exit support.
  • Measurement of completed-job contribution, staff rework and complaints.

A pilot should be capable of producing a do not proceed decision. Counting answered calls or generated messages alone is insufficient evidence of operational improvement.
