Service access and navigation
Help residents understand programs, find services, complete tasks, and reach people when circumstances are complex.
↗AI FOR GOVERNMENTS
AI for Governments
Use AI to make public services easier to access and simpler to navigate while protecting rights, transparency, accessibility, and trust.
Enterprise perspective
Public sector AI must improve service while preserving public accountability
Define the service problem, affected rights and interests, statutory basis, expected benefit, and alternatives before choosing automation. The public value case should explain why AI is proportionate and necessary for the task. Canada’s federal approach uses an Algorithmic Impact Assessment to scale requirements by risk. Privacy, security, accessibility, inclusion, data, explanation, peer review, and procurement evidence should shape design from the beginning and be revalidated against the production system. People need notice when automation affects a service or administrative decision, understandable reasons appropriate to the impact, and a meaningful way to challenge an outcome. Human reviewers need the authority and evidence to change the decision.
