Use case assessment
Minor improvement. Small efficiency gain with limited effect on overall turnover or bottom line.
Relatively straightforward. Off-the-shelf tools handle the core task. Implementation is well-understood with good examples to follow.
Light data requirements. Uses straightforward inputs — documents, product descriptions, customer records — that are usually accessible with minimal prep.
High risk. Significant external exposure or regulatory implications. Requires robust oversight and clear accountability.
Light people impact. A new tool slots into an existing workflow. Minimal training needed. Most people will adapt quickly.

Things to consider
H&S errors have serious legal and safety consequences — this is decision support for the H&S professional, not a replacement for their expertise.
The regulatory reference library in the RAG system needs to be current. Regulatory requirements change; the knowledge base needs active maintenance.
Any document flagged as compliant by the AI still requires qualified human sign-off before it's used operationally.
The most practical starting point is completeness checking — are all required sections present? — rather than accuracy checking — is the content legally correct? Completeness checking is lower risk and equally valuable as a first-pass filter.
Experiment starter: Take 20 recently approved risk assessments. Run them through an LLM with a completeness checklist covering required sections and mandatory fields. Compare the AI's assessment against the H&S professional's review. If the AI correctly passes all complete documents and flags all gaps, proceed to a pilot on new submissions.
