The Compliance Challenge
Why EdTech companies struggle to enter the WA market

Western Australia's AI Assurance Framework has created a unique and sophisticated compliance landscape that extends to AI products used in public education. The framework requires comprehensive documentation and risk assessment for AI systems, with submission to the AI Advisory Board required when residual risks are mid-range or higher, or when certain funding and cost thresholds are met.

Common Barriers:

  • Unfamiliarity with WA-specific requirements
  • Complex documentation and assessment processes
  • Lack of local expertise and relationships
  • Uncertainty about compliance standards

Market Impact:

  • Delayed market entry and lost revenue
  • Competitive disadvantage vs compliant vendors
  • Risk of non-compliance and market exclusion
  • Increased sales cycle complexity
