AI governance
in Maryland.

AI support for workforce administration needs clear limits around recommendations, sensitive information and human decisions. For teams in Maryland handling research-support project intake, use a project brief, approved source collection and access request to make the starting point concrete. RFA scopes AI governance in Maryland around the task, review requirements and people responsible for the result.

YOUR OBJECTIVE COMES FIRST

Workforce decision support
Make AI use understandable, reviewable and accountable.

Maryland Commerce highlights life sciences, cybersecurity and IT, advanced manufacturing, logistics and artificial intelligence among its key industries. A useful scoping example is research-support project intake. Follow a project brief, approved source collection and access request through the work with project leads, information owners and technical support. Project participation does not automatically authorize access to every research document. Which source material is each participant permitted to use?

Maryland Department of Commerce: industry context ↗
01

Inventory intended use and authority

Identify tools, users, inputs, outputs and any external actions. Distinguish experimentation from a workflow staff already rely on. Record the business owner and the decisions the system is permitted to support or perform.

02

Set practical information boundaries

Define approved sources, sensitive information, access and retention expectations with the relevant owners. Check how those expectations apply in the chosen tool and integrations. A written rule should not assume technical controls exist without verification. Working example: A permitted-use statement and reviewer checklist.

03

Match review to the consequences

Decide when a person must inspect evidence, approve an action or make a professional determination. Establish escalation for missing support, disagreement or unexpected behavior. Review requirements should reflect the task rather than treat every AI output as the same risk. For research-support project intake, agree how project leads, information owners and technical support contribute where those functions are involved.

04

Maintain evidence as the workflow changes

Keep use-case records, representative evaluation results and change decisions. Assign responsibility for prompt, source and permission updates. Give staff a way to report incidents and corrections so lessons reach the people who can change the workflow. Review check: Reviewers can identify the supported facts and challenge an output.

THE RIGHT FIT APPROACH

From your objective
to a scoped engagement.

01

Review real uses and responsibilities

Gather tool and workflow examples with business, technical and relevant specialist owners. Identify the decisions, information boundaries and operating gaps that need attention. Bring a permitted-use statement and reviewer checklist. Test the scope against this constraint: An inferred characteristic is not established evidence about a person.

02

Translate expectations into controls and guidance

Define permitted uses, review routes, evaluation needs and change responsibilities. Check the selected tool’s actual behavior against the intended requirements.

03

Introduce an ongoing review process

Prepare role-specific guidance and an incident route. Agree who reviews changes and what evidence is needed before a use case expands.

PLANNING THE ENGAGEMENT

Questions about support in Maryland.

Can AI make an employment decision?

Such decisions need careful review by authorized legal, HR and specialist owners; do not assume an assistant has that authority.

Does governance mean banning AI tools?

Not necessarily. The objective is a clear, accountable basis for permitted use, information handling and review. Different tasks may need different boundaries, controls and approval rather than a single blanket rule.

Who should review an AI result?

Choose the reviewer from the decision and the consequences of error. Relevant subject-matter or professional judgment may be required. Define the evidence the reviewer needs and when the work must stop or escalate.

How often should AI practices be reviewed?

Set a review rhythm and also review material changes to models, prompts, sources, permissions or intended actions. Changes can alter behavior even when the screen looks the same; retain representative tests and accountable approval.
