Governed AI & Digital Resilience Sprint

Govern one important AI-enabled decision—from evidence to accountable action—in four weeks.

A fixed-scope pilot for regulated fintech, payments and financial-services technology teams, grounded in versioned EU AI Act and DORA mappings, 28 reviewed controls and a client-specific scope decision.

Published regulatory pilot basis

A governed starting point is already in place.

The private Standard Pack fixes the regulatory sources and control versions used by the pilot. It supports a disciplined assessment; it does not decide applicability or prove compliance.

Published Standard Pack

EU Regulated Fintech Pilot — AI & Digital Resilience

v2026.09
Maker–checker reviewed inside Octa

Published on 3 September 2026, the pack pins exact source versions rather than treating regulation as a generic prompt. A different authorized reviewer approved its sources, controls and final assembly after submission.

01

EU AI Act

Digital Operational Resilience Act

Regulation (EU) 2022/2554 · 12 controls

Versioned mapping for ICT risk, protection, incidents, recovery, resilience testing, third-party governance, contracts and the register of information.

03

Applicability and evidence overlay

Cross-framework · 5 controls

A shared boundary for entity and regulatory perimeter, traceability, evidence integrity, independent release and regulatory change.

Applicability stays evidence-led.

A real client enters only after its entity, licence, jurisdictions, authorities, AI role, use case, affected people and provider dependencies are recorded. Conditional duties are marked applicable or not applicable with reasons.

Inspect the delivery mechanics

A deliberately narrow starting point

Start where the need to prove the decision is already real.

The pilot is designed for one material workflow with a named owner and a time-bound assurance need. It is not an open-ended transformation programme.

01

A decision has a real deadline

An internal audit, board risk review, customer assurance request or procurement gate is approaching.

02

The evidence is difficult to defend

Sources, approvals, assumptions and remediation actions sit across documents, inboxes and different owners.

03

An accountable owner can engage

A risk, compliance, audit, data or technology leader can set the boundary and make the final decision.

What you receive

A decision pack with the record around it.

The output connects evidence, standards, accountable review, remediation and final release so the reasoning can be reconstructed later.

01

Scope and responsibility map

The decision boundary, stakeholders, decision rights and evidence responsibilities agreed at the outset.

02

Evidence and gap register

Accepted sources, rejected material, unresolved gaps and limitations retained as a reviewable record.

03

Applicable-control mapping

The evidence mapped against the exact published Standard Pack version selected after entity, role, jurisdiction and use-case scoping.

04

Prioritized remediation register

Material gaps translated into practical actions with accountable owners and target dates.

05

Independent decision review

A separate qualified reviewer challenges the reasoning, citations and release readiness before delivery.

06

Locked executive release

A traceable decision pack, release record and checksum-locked PDF, followed by an executive readout.

Four-week delivery path

Every week ends with a visible control point.

Later work adds to the record instead of silently replacing earlier evidence, decisions or review findings.

  1. 01

    Bound the decision

    Approve the entity, role, jurisdiction and use-case scope; then confirm permitted claims, Standard Pack and evidence request.

  2. 02

    Challenge the evidence

    Run structured evidence rounds, record gaps and preserve accepted sources and limitations.

  3. 03

    Assess and review

    Develop the control mapping and remediation priorities, then complete independent quality review.

  4. 04

    Release and decide

    Resolve review findings, issue the locked decision pack and agree the follow-up measurement baseline.

Clear commercial terms

A fixed investment for a bounded decision.

The UK pilot is offered at a £15,000 fixed fee plus applicable tax: 50% before evidence intake and 50% before final release. Any change in boundary is documented before work proceeds.

Responsible boundary

What the pilot does not claim.

  • The pilot is not a legal opinion, certification, conformity assessment or regulatory approval.
  • Publication of a regulatory mapping or control does not establish that a framework applies to a particular client or that the client complies.
  • It does not guarantee that an auditor, customer or regulator will accept the resulting work.
  • It covers one bounded AI system or AI-enabled process—not an enterprise-wide implementation.
  • Final scope, data handling, reviewer suitability and applicable standards are confirmed during contracting.

Bring one decision

Let’s test whether Octa creates evidence your organization can use and defend.

The first conversation establishes the decision, deadline, present evidence problem and accountable buyer. If the pilot is not a fit, we will say so.
