Description
The AI Governance Starter Toolkit Professional is the mid-tier bundle in Madalent’s GRC toolkit — the complete Essentials toolkit (12 core documents), plus 15 additional documents that turn a basic governance setup into something a consultant or auditor would recognise as a real client engagement: governance framework, decision authority, audit, compliance mapping, and SOP-level operational depth.
Built to the standard a Big-4 advisor would deliver, every document is editable, brand-ready, and aligned to ISO 42001, the EU AI Act, and NIST AI RMF.

Why not just use a free template?
Free AI policy templates from PwC, the National AI Centre, or generic blog downloads give you a single disconnected document — no audit trail, no cross-referencing between risk and compliance artefacts, and often a public attribution requirement. The AI Governance Starter Toolkit Professional is built as one coherent system: your Risk Register feeds your Audit Checklist, your Impact Assessment feeds your Compliance Matrix, your Decision Authority Matrix feeds your Governance Framework. That cross-referencing is what turns a folder of documents into something an actual auditor recognises as a governance program — and it ships fully yours, with no attribution or watermarks.
Who it’s for
Compliance officers, CTOs, and consultants who need a comprehensive, audit-ready AI governance library without building it document by document. This tier suits organisations already past initial policy setup and preparing for a formal audit, board reporting, or client-facing engagement.
Frequently asked questions
What file format is this toolkit in?
All 27 documents are delivered as editable Word (.docx) and Excel (.xlsx) files, plus the bonus poster set as print-ready PDF and editable source files.
Can I edit this template with my own branding?
Yes. Every document ships unbranded — add your logo, adjust formatting, and issue it under your own organisation’s name with no restrictions for internal use.
What’s the difference between the Essentials and Professional bundles?
Essentials covers the 12 foundational documents. Professional includes all 12 Essentials documents plus 15 additional documents — governance framework, audit, compliance mapping, and SOP-level detail — 27 documents in total.
Does this align with ISO 42001 and the EU AI Act?
Yes. Every document is cross-referenced against ISO 42001, the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and AU Privacy Act, so gaps are visible before an audit finds them.
