Abstract

After a publication of a UK 5 notice the Development Bank of Wales will enter in to a contract with a supplier to undertake AI consultancy services to support the automation of legal document generation and sanction paper drafting. The supplier will deliver an end to end AI enabled workflow covering design, prototyping, testing and operational rollout. This includes creating structured and repeatable AI augmented processes, establishing controls and guardrails, enabling modular “agent based” workflow steps, and refining outputs through real user testing. The work also includes a targeted half day readiness session to ensure users and governance stakeholders understand safe and responsible use, limitations, validation requirements, and escalation procedures.

The solution will expand on prototypes developed previously and will transform two must win internal workflows (legal work and sanction papers) into functional operational processes, enabling improved efficiency, quality, auditability and consistency across DBW teams.
