AI Governance Framework

Structure

The BAUER GROUP integrates AI governance into the existing organisational structure. No separate governance apparatus.

Responsibilities

Role	Person/Function	AI Act Responsibility
AI Act Compliance Owner	Executive Management (Karl)	Strategic decisions, Go/No-Go
Technical Implementation	Head of Development	Implementation of requirements
Documentation	Project Management	Maintenance of compliance documentation
AI Literacy	HR / Onboarding	Training delivery and records

Processes

1. New product with AI: Assessment schema Art. 5 → Risk classification → Go/No-Go → (if Go) Compliance implementation
2. Existing product + AI extension: Same as new product, but review whether risk level changes
3. Internal AI usage: Ensure AI Literacy, observe deployer obligations
4. Annual review: Update AI inventory, review classifications, conduct training
