How do we restrict Amazon Bedrock features to a pilot group using feature flags and policy controls?

Setting up Cloud Logging sinks and making sure the target Pub/Sub topic or Cloud Storage bucket has the right permissions are necessary for exporting Vertex AI logs to a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system with least-privilege scopes.

To train support teams for Azure OpenAI Service, provide comprehensive training on common tickets and troubleshooting, utilize Microsoft Learn resources and the Azure portal for guidance, and implement pre-prepared responses and a structured internal knowledge base for quick resolutions. Leverage tools like the Azure AI Foundry portal to practice fine-tuning and evaluate models, and foster continuous learning through internal communication channels and access to experts for complex issues.

To train support teams for GitHub Copilot, provide hands-on training focusing on its features and common issues, develop internal champions and resources like workshops and a dedicated discussion space, and use pilot programs to gather expected issues and refine best practices before broad rollout. Training should cover how to use the tool, troubleshoot installation and activation problems, understand common error messages, and how to guide users in generating useful prompts and reviewing code suggestions effectively.

Productivity KPIs

• Task Completion Time
• Compare how long it takes to finish the same workflows before vs after Gemini.
• Example: document summaries, email drafts, code reviews, or spreadsheet formulas.
• Automation Adoption Rate
• Percentage of employees using Gemini features regularly (measured via Workspace or Gemini usage reports).
• High adoption = real-world usefulness, not just hype.
• Output per Employee
• More docs written, bugs fixed, or reports generated with the same headcount → proof of scale.
• Manual Rework Reduction
• Fewer revisions or human edits needed after AI-generated content → higher first-time accuracy.
• Meeting/Email Load Reduction
• Gemini summaries, auto-drafts, or quick insights reduce manual coordination effort.
• Track average time spent in email, chat, or meetings pre- vs post-update.

Risk & Compliance KPIs

• Error/Bias/Leak Incidents
• Number of AI-generated content errors, data leaks, or policy violations detected.
• Should stay flat or go down.
• Security Policy Violations
• Track instances where Gemini accessed restricted data sources.
• Low or unchanged levels = safe rollout.
• Data Retention Accuracy
• Ensure Gemini outputs are stored or shared in compliance with internal data policies.
• Audit Findings / Compliance Breaches
• If post-update audits show zero new risk categories, that’s your proof the AI didn’t add exposure.

Rolling out Microsoft Copilot (or GitHub Copilot, depending on your stack) can feel like a game changer but proving it actually improved productivity without adding compliance or security risk is the real test. You’ll want KPIs that track both efficiency gains and risk stability side by side.

Productivity KPIs

• Task Completion Time
• Measure average time to complete routine tasks (code commits, document drafts, email responses) before vs after Copilot.
• Faster completion = tangible productivity gain.
• Output Volume per User
• For dev teams: LOC or PRs per engineer (normalized by complexity).
• For business users: number of documents, emails, or reports completed.
• Assisted Action Rate
• % of actions completed using Copilot suggestions.
• Tracks adoption and engagement, not just availability.
• Manual Rework Reduction
• Fewer rounds of edits, review comments, or corrections = higher first-time accuracy thanks to Copilot.
• Time Saved per Task
• Aggregate self-reported time savings (from Copilot analytics or surveys).
• Even modest daily savings across hundreds of users add up fast.

Risk / Quality KPIs

• Error or Bug Rate
• Post-update code quality (test pass rates, post-deployment defects) should stay stable or improve.
• If bugs spike, Copilot’s productivity gains are illusionary.
• Security Violations / Policy Breaches
• Track incidents of sensitive data exposure or license violations due to AI-generated content.
• Should stay at or below pre-rollout levels.
• Compliance Audit Findings
• Any new issues flagged during internal audits post-rollout indicate hidden risk.
• User Override Rate
• Percentage of Copilot suggestions rejected or heavily modified → proxy for trust and quality.
