As a young engineer in the 1990s, I took on the role of IT Manager, my first management position. We were experiencing the beginning of the digital era and things were happening. As a business we too were shifting from analog to digital circuits. On the design and engineering front, we were adopting advanced Computer Aided Design (CAD) technologies

Perhaps, walking the physical Gemba will be replaced by walking digital threads that provide transparency "Digital Threads: The Future of Compliance: https://www.leancompliance.ca/post/digital-threads-the-future-of-compliance

Engineering applies it. The engineer applies it, and answers for whether the bridge stands. Applying it to your business follows the engineering method. This engineering cannot be left to the AGI provider. It is true that they engineer, and heavily.

I am a professional engineer who studied electrical / computer engineering back in the 80’s. As it turns out, compliance is not so different from engineering at least the way it is now. Compliance added a new benchmark – a new design objective for engineering. This requires thinking in engineering terms such as: Design Thinking, Systems Engineering, Model Based Engineering, Digital Twins and Threads, Risk-based Thinking, and so on.

There are many ways in which choice architecture manifests itself in the digital environment.

By Raimund Laqua, Lean Compliance Engineer Mistakes aren't failures—they’re lessons. Because when compliance engineers make mistakes, people die. The connection is engineered to work every time. Now apply this to compliance. Engineering Reliable Delivery Build obligation fulfillment into the process.   Engineer commitment keeping.  Your car won't start without a seatbelt.

Multiplicity: Designing What This Is and What This Is Not With the essentials established, the engineer The Rub Here is where engineering demands expertise. The engineer's expertise lives in this tension: defining identity tightly enough that the thing remains This is the bridge between engineering and compliance. First Principles Engineering is about building things.

The following diagram is a slightly modified version of her model outlining engineering activities across At this level of analysis we are talking about AI Systems (i.e. engineered systems) not about systems A key takeaway is that AI engineering must incorporate and ensure responsible and safe design & practice This is where professional AI engineers are most helpful and needed.

From an engineering perspective, I propose three principles that organizations should consider when designing The engineering discipline here is straightforward but often overlooked: Map your existing safety controls This integrated view reflects how safety is actually achieved in mature engineering disciplines. Aircraft aren't safe just because engines are reliable. This is the work of engineering: not making perfect systems, but making systems that fail safely, that

System controls — engineered into the work, instrumented, outcome-bearing. Engineered into how work is done. 🧡 C2 / C1 — Process and functional safety.

Unlike traditional engineered systems with predictable inputs and outputs, AI systems exhibit emergent Ray Laqua, P.Eng., PMP, is Chair of the AI Committee for Engineers for the Profession (E4P), Co-founder
