AI for Government
Government entities carry an obligation no private organization has: decisions must be defensible to the public they affect. That raises the bar on explainability, bias testing and documentation well above what a commercial deployment would require.
The position
Dubai has also made AI a factor in procurement and launched the Dubai AI Seal, so an entity's own AI posture now shapes who it can buy from and how it is assessed in turn.
We help entities write AI policy that survives contact with real cases, prepare for Seal assessment, and set the standards their suppliers will be held to.
What is pressing
Four pressures specific to this sector.
01
Public accountability
An automated decision affecting residents has to be explainable in plain language, appealable, and evidenced. Accuracy alone is not a defence.
02
Dubai AI Seal readiness
The Seal assesses security, governance, transparency, ethics and compliance as an operating reality rather than a policy document. Preparation is mostly evidence-gathering.
03
Setting supplier standards
Entities increasingly define what they require of vendors' AI. Those requirements have to be specific enough to assess and realistic enough that suppliers can meet them.
04
Capability inside the entity
Policy written by people who cannot evaluate a model gets outsourced in practice. Internal capability is what makes oversight real.

What this sector asks first.
- What does the Dubai AI Seal actually assess?
- Security protocols, governance frameworks, transparency practices, ethical standards and regulatory compliance - as things an organization does, evidenced, rather than as documents it holds. Our full guidance on it is free to read.
- Should an entity write its own AI policy or adopt an existing framework?
- Start from an established framework and adapt it. Writing from scratch produces documents that read well and decide nothing. What matters is the local decision rules: what requires review, who signs off, and what happens when a system is wrong.
- How do we hold suppliers to an AI standard?
- Put it in procurement, not in a policy addendum. Specify required disclosures, performance evidence, change notification and audit rights at tender stage, when you still have leverage.
