What We Offer

Three products. One governance system.

The Decision Protocol Institute publishes structured AI governance infrastructure in three purchasable configurations. You can buy a single framework to solve one specific control problem, or the Complete Suite — which combines both frameworks with three exclusive components designed to bridge the distance between owning documents and deploying a functioning governance system.

Most organizations need both frameworks. Internal AI use and external vendor relationships are two sides of the same governance problem. Solving one without the other leaves a gap that auditors, regulators, and incidents will find.

The three Suite-exclusive components — Execution Library, Executive Briefing, and Deployment Roadmap — are the difference between owning documents and deploying a system. They are not available with individual framework purchases.

Governance Architecture

One architecture. Two entry frameworks.

The currently available frameworks solve two different internal control problems inside one broader governance architecture. They are designed to function immediately as standalone governance instruments, while also forming part of a larger internal governance system.

AI Use & Control Framework
For internal rules, literacy, triage, disclosure, and rollout control around everyday AI use.
  • Acceptable Use Policy
  • AI Literacy Checklist
  • Shadow AI Disclosure Protocol
  • Use Case Triage Tool
  • Governance Rollout Memo
AI Vendor & Data Control Framework
For vendor review, restricted-data handling, approval logic, onboarding, and escalation discipline.
  • Vendor & Data Control Policy
  • Vendor Review Checklist
  • AI Tool Onboarding Protocol
  • Restricted Data Triage Tool
  • Vendor Escalation Matrix

This is not a collection of generic templates. It is a structured internal governance layer designed for immediate organizational use.

Framework Contents

What exactly is inside

Each framework is delivered as a structured downloadable package. The documents are not isolated — they are linked by governance logic: policy defines rules, triage classifies risk, disclosure surfaces violations, approval routes decisions, and rollout communicates to the organization.

ComponentTypePurpose

A generic template pack gives forms. A governance framework gives structure, routing, interpretation, and internal control.

Real pages from the frameworks

Below are actual pages from two documents included in the AI Use & Control Framework: the Acceptable Use Policy and the Use Case Triage Tool. Use the arrows to navigate. These are not mockups — they are the real documents you receive after purchase.

Each full document is between 4 and 10 pages, professionally structured, and ready for internal deployment. The watermark shown here does not appear in the purchased product.

Document Structure

AI Acceptable Use Policy — §3

This is a real excerpt from the AI Acceptable Use Policy. Notice the structure: it is not advisory language. It is a deployable governance instrument with clear categories, escalation rules, and enforcement provisions.

AI Acceptable Use Policy
§3 — Use Categories
PERMITTED — Internal productivity, drafting, brainstorming, and summarization using approved tools with non-confidential data.
RESTRICTED — Use involving confidential data, external-facing output, or integration with operational systems. Requires documented approval.
PROHIBITED — Autonomous decision-making affecting rights, obligations, or safety. Use of unapproved tools with restricted data.

The full policy is 10 pages and covers: Scope & Applicability, Definitions, Permitted Uses, Prohibited Uses, Data Handling Rules, Approval & Escalation, Monitoring & Enforcement, and Policy Acknowledgment.

AI Use Case Triage Tool

This is a working excerpt from the triage tool. Answer the screening questions to see how the tool classifies AI use cases by risk tier. This is the actual decision logic your team would use.

AI Use Case Triage ToolInteractive
QUESTION 1 OF 5
Is the AI tool on the approved list?
Check the organization's current list of approved AI tools. Personal accounts on consumer AI platforms are not approved.
QUESTION 2 OF 5
What is the highest data sensitivity involved?
Classify all data you will submit to the AI tool: prompts, attachments, context.
QUESTION 3 OF 5
Is the AI output reviewed by a qualified human before external use?
External use includes: client communications, published content, reports shared outside the organization.
QUESTION 4 OF 5
Does the use case create operational dependency on the AI tool?
Would the process break or significantly degrade if the AI tool became unavailable?
QUESTION 5 OF 5
Is this an internal-only use case with no external impact?
Internal only: no client data, no external communications, no regulatory reporting.
STOP — Unapproved Tool
The AI tool must complete the AI Tool Onboarding Protocol before any use is permitted.
Reference: AI Acceptable Use Policy §6
PROHIBITED — Restricted Data
Restricted or personally identifiable data may not be processed through AI tools without explicit authorization.
Reference: Prompt & Data Handling Rules §4
RESTRICTED — Confidential Data
Use involving confidential data requires documented approval and additional safeguards.
Reference: AI Acceptable Use Policy §5
RESTRICTED — Human Review Required
All AI output for external use must pass through qualified human review.
Reference: AI Acceptable Use Policy §3
ESCALATED — Operational Dependency
Operational dependency requires a formal governance record and continuity plan.
Reference: Control Ownership Matrix — Tier 2
PERMITTED — Low-Friction Use
This use case qualifies for standard controls. Proceed under the AI Acceptable Use Policy.
Reference: AI Acceptable Use Policy §3
RESTRICTED — External Impact
Use cases with external impact require documented approval and a governance record.
Reference: AI Acceptable Use Policy §3
Assessment Trail

The full triage tool includes 10 screening questions covering additional dimensions: regulatory exposure, vendor dependency, model transparency, and output criticality.

§1 — Scope and Applicability
This policy applies to all employees, contractors, and authorized users of [Organization Name] who interact with artificial intelligence tools in any professional capacity.

In the purchased framework, every field across all documents is editable — including approval chains, escalation contacts, data classification levels, and compliance deadlines.
In Practice

Executed Example

The frameworks show what completed governance documentation looks like. This is one of 20 fully worked case records included in the Complete AI Governance Suite.

Marketing Content Use Case — Completed Governance Record
Use case
AI-generated first-draft marketing copy for product launch campaign
Classification
Restricted — external-facing output, brand and reputational risk
AI tool
ChatGPT (GPT-4) via approved organizational account
Data sensitivity
Internal product specifications shared with model; no PII
Human review
100% human review before publication; legal sign-off on claims
Approval
Marketing Director + Compliance review completed
Trade-off
Speed gain accepted in exchange for mandatory human review layer

A serious governance framework should not only tell teams what to do. It should also show what completed governance documentation looks like.

Deployment Logic

How a team would actually use this

A framework only has value if an organization can begin using it without needing external interpretation first.

D1
Review & Assign
Review the deployment guide, identify the governance owner, circulate the rollout memo.
D2
Establish Boundaries
Define acceptable, restricted, and prohibited use. Set approval requirements.
D3
Classify & Triage
Use triage tools to classify active AI uses. Route to standard controls or escalation.
D4
Surface & Control
Apply disclosure pathways to bring unmanaged AI use under governance.
W1+
Govern & Iterate
Use the framework for repeatable review, approval, documentation, and discipline.

The purpose of the framework is not only to define rules, but to make controlled organizational use possible immediately.
