METANOWDubai’s new agentic AI initiative brings practical urban applications into focus. For a team preparing an automated workflow, an equally useful question is how each proposed action will be governed.
METANOW perspective
Begin with an accountable owner, a permitted data boundary and a measurable purpose. Define which tools an agent may use and place authorised review before consequential record changes, communications or service decisions.
Make the evidence, workflow version, proposed action and reviewer decision traceable. Test unsupported answers, failed tools and escalation paths before release, then use operational feedback to guide reviewed changes. These are design recommendations; specific controls and deployment requirements depend on the organisation.
