Use Case Management is the systematic process of identifying, evaluating, approving, and tracking AI applications across your organisation. A use case represents a specific business problem or opportunity where AI is being applied—such as customer service chatbots, predictive maintenance, or document analysis. Effective management means maintaining a central catalogue of these initiatives, documenting their purpose and ownership, assessing their risks and value, securing appropriate approvals, and monitoring their outcomes over time.
Without structured use case management, organisations often discover multiple teams solving the same problem independently, investing in AI with unclear business cases, or deploying systems without proper risk assessment. This dimension evaluates whether your organisation maintains a catalogue of AI initiatives, assesses their risks and benefits, and tracks their outcomes.
Why It Matters
Without clear oversight of AI use cases, organisations risk duplication, wasted investment, and unmanaged risk.
