PMAID (PM AI Aid™): A Deterministic, EU AI Act-Aware Decision and Process-Design Framework for AI Delivery
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: PMAID (PM AI Aid™) is a local decision tool that tells a Technical Programme Manager whether AI fits a problem, classifies the intended system under the EU AI Act, and generates a governed eight-phase delivery plan. Recommendations come from a deterministic YAML rule engine, not a language model. An optional llama.cpp layer adds three labelled advisory features. The paper covers design principles, architecture, decision and screening logic, configuration, verification and limitations of version 1.2. Keywords: AI project management; decision support; rule engine; EU AI Act; risk classification; programme delivery; local LLM; governance Version: 1.2.
