Responsibility Model (Vendor, Customer, User)

How responsibility is distributed for effective and safe AI rollout

Effective AI only works when responsibility is clear across the full value chain.

Vendor responsibility

  • secure platform baseline and operating standards
  • clear configuration for roles, access, and policies
  • transparency on integrations, data flows, and limits

Customer responsibility

  • enforceable AI policies and internal governance model
  • clear decision on allowed use-cases per function
  • training and enablement process for all user groups

User responsibility

  • follow policies in daily work
  • critically review outputs (do not accept blindly)
  • avoid uncontrolled automation in sensitive decisions

Practical principle

  • technology alone does not solve compliance
  • governance without enablement is not adopted
  • enablement without guardrails scales risk
