AI Use Policy
One-page rule sheet for crews and office, plus a full written policy.
AI governance for industrial operations
Practical rules for AI in industrial operations. We help Southwest Louisiana employers and contractors decide where AI tools are allowed, who may use them, and what has to be reviewed before those tools touch operations, customer data, or a safety decision. Written for a plant supervisor, not a software conference.
Why it matters
AI makes fake supplier invoices and voice-cloned “we changed our wire info” calls look and sound real, and they target the payments you send to suppliers and subs.
Estimators, project managers, and office staff paste bid numbers, specs, and client drawings into tools like ChatGPT, often with no rules about what is allowed.
Owners, operators, and GCs may start asking contractors how they handle AI and data. A written policy gives you a clear answer.
Services
A one-page rule sheet for crews and office staff, plus the full written policy: approved tools, what never goes into AI, which decisions stay with a person, and who to ask.
We find every AI tool in use, including ones nobody approved, rank the risks, and give you a prioritized fix list.
A 90-minute session on spotting AI scams, deepfake calls, and data leaks.
A plain-language pass on a proposed AI product: data leaving the site, retention, human override, and who is accountable.
A shift-ready explanation for supervisors and crews, so the rule survives its first week after being posted.
A record of the decision, the limits, and the review date, so the next audit is not a reconstruction.
Pricing
Flat-fee, scoped after a short call. No long contract.
One-page rule sheet for crews and office, plus a full written policy.

How to spot AI scams, deepfake calls, and data leaks.
Risk assessment mapped to the NIST AI RMF Generative AI Profile, plus a documented evidence file.
Prices in U.S. dollars, excluding taxes. Every engagement starts with a written scope and fixed price before any work begins.
Approach
The first conversation is with operations, safety, or the front office: the people who will have to live with the rule.
About 20 minutes. We learn how your team uses AI today, the data you handle, and what you need from a policy.
You get a written scope with deliverables, timeline, and a fixed price before any work starts.
We review your existing handbook and IT or privacy policies, then draft in plain English.
We walk your team through the draft, revise, and document the decision with a review date.
Frameworks
Our assessments follow the NIST AI RMF, including its Generative AI Profile.
Following the NIST framework can also support a recognized defense under Texas’s AI law (TRAIGA).
Advisory, not certification. We are not a law firm. Our work is not legal advice, and we do not certify, audit, or attest to compliance with any law or standard.
