A robot fleet management platform includes datastores configured to store a governance library defining governance standards. Processors execute computer-readable instructions to implement a governance-enabling intelligence layer that receives and responds to intelligence requests received from intelligence service clients. The intelligence layer includes artificial intelligence services including machine learning, rules-based intelligence, digital twin, robot process automation, and machine vision. The set of governance standards is applied to decisions made by one or more of the set of artificial intelligence services. An intelligence layer controller coordinates performance of the artificial intelligence services on behalf of the intelligence service clients and performance of analyses corresponding to the artificial intelligence services based on the set of governance standards. The intelligence layer returns decisions determined by the artificial intelligence services in response to the intelligence requests. The decisions are determined based on intelligence service data sources and the set of analyses.
