I've led AI governance and digital programmes for enterprise groups, governments and new cities across Asia and the Middle East. The three engagements below carry the most weight. Further down are the systems I built myself to test the controls in my Governed Cognitive Layer, kept apart from client work.

Signature engagements

Enterprise

Global AI Governance Framework

My role: Designed the framework and wrote the standard, Meinhardt Group

One governance standard that met Singapore's IMDA framework, Saudi Arabia's NDMO requirements and Oman's TRA framework at the same time. No jurisdiction needed its own compliance stack. Annexes for each jurisdiction carried the local edge cases, so deployment teams never had to build their own compliance layer from scratch.

Meinhardt AI Centre of Excellence

My role: Led the programme and set its governance model, Meinhardt Group

A RAG platform built for this domain and deployed across six regional offices. It was trained on internal design standards, project documents and regulatory references. AI-assisted design review runs through human-in-the-loop governance gates, so an engineer, not the model, is accountable for every AI-assisted decision made on the platform.

NEOM Bay Airport Digital Strategy

My role: Designed the digital operations architecture and its measurement framework, with Meinhardt

An AI-first operating design for a greenfield international airport. Passenger flow prediction, baggage optimisation and integrated operations control were all designed before the airport opened. The prediction models were tested in simulation against similar airports. The measurement framework was built so real operating data sharpens their accuracy from day one.

AI assurance test beds

Systems I built myself to test the controls I recommend to clients: an internal audit agent, an AI security agent and the live demo for the Singapore AI governance case study. In each one the model reads and drafts, code does the numbers, and a named person decides. None of them is a client deployment.

Agentic Internal Audit System

Working system Client: Confidential

Audit teams cover ISO 27001, ISO 42001 and SOC 2 readiness with AI doing the reading and drafting, and an auditor grading every finding.

Before You Go

Behind every metric on this page is a room full of people who had to change how they work. That's the hard part, and it's rarely the technology. The projects I'm proudest of aren't the ones with the cleanest numbers; they're the ones where the team still trusts the system a year later because nobody cut a corner to hit a deadline. If you're mid-rollout and it feels slower than promised, that's usually a sign you're doing it right.
