1Vendor Diligence Checklist
1. **Request the SOC 2 Type II Report:** Ask the vendor for their latest report. Do not accept a Type I or a simple "we are compliant" statement. The report itself is the evidence. Pay attention to the observation period and any exceptions noted by the auditor. 2. **Verify Data Usage and Training Policies:** Get a written statement confirming that your firm's data and your clients' data will not be used to train their global AI models. Look for this in their Master Service Agreement (MSA) or a dedicated privacy policy. 3. **Review Data Retention and Deletion Policies:** Understand how long the vendor stores your data and what the process is for deleting it. For Reg S-P, you need to ensure you can manage data according to your client's requirements, which may include specific deletion timelines.
2Core Principles for a Consulting Firm's AI Policy
1. **Client Data is Prohibited in Public AI:** No employee may input any client-identifying information, confidential data, or non-public material into any public AI tool (e.g., the free versions of ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini). All client-related work must be done using firm-approved, enterprise-grade AI tools that guarantee data privacy and have been vetted by IT. 2. **All AI Output Must Be Verified:** Every claim, statistic, citation, or piece of analysis generated by an AI must be independently verified for accuracy by a human before it is included in any client-facing deliverable. The employee using the AI is responsible for this verification. 3. **Disclose AI Use When Required:** Follow all contractual obligations and regulatory requirements regarding the disclosure of AI use in client work. When in doubt, err on the side of transparency with the client. 4. **Final Judgment is Human:** AI is a tool for drafting and analysis, not for final decision-making. The final professional judgment on any recommendation or conclusion rests with the human consultant, who remains fully accountable. 5. **Approved Tool List:** The firm will maintain a list of approved AI tools that have been vetted for security, privacy, and reliability. Use of non-approved tools for client work is prohibited.
