Licensing & Adoption

License the MANDATE Suite products your organisation needs and put them to work through a structured 90-day adoption. An ongoing licence keeps them current.

Tailor instruments to your structure, risk appetite and regulatory obligations. Align stakeholders.

Days 61–90

Board resolution and handover

Board resolution pack, KRI baseline and handover.

Licensing Options

Initial licence and adoption

Your licence covers MANDATE plus the products you select, with a 90-day adoption programme:

​

  • Gap mapping against ISO/IEC 42001 and the EU AI Act

  • Product selection to fit your governance needs

  • Instrument tailoring to your structure, risk appetite and obligations

  • Board resolution pack so every instrument traces to Board authority

  • KRI baseline for your starting position on the Board KRIs

Ongoing licence

AI governance is not a one-off exercise. Authority that was admissible when it was delegated may not be admissible today. Your ongoing licence keeps MANDATE current:

​

  • Updates to the instruments in your licensed products as regulation and standards change

  • The option to add further products at any time

  • Periodic Board KRI reviews

  • Readiness reviews ahead of internal audit or regulator engagement

Pricing

Pricing is based on the products you license and the size of your organisation, and is agreed with you directly. It comprises an initial licence and adoption fee, followed by an ongoing licence fee.

MANDATE, the foundation product, is required for all other EDS Governance Framework products.
