Organisations face the challenge of integrating AI applications into their operations in a responsible, transparent and sustainable way.

Strengthening Trust, Transparency and Governance in the Use of AI

More and more organisations are using AI solutions in business processes, products and services. At the same time, expectations around transparency, traceability, governance and risk management are increasing. Customers, business partners and public-sector clients increasingly expect robust evidence that AI is being used responsibly.

Many organisations already use AI applications, but still lack the organisational structures, responsibilities and control mechanisms required for an effective AI Management System. This makes it more difficult to assess risks systematically, document decisions in a traceable way and address future AI compliance requirements.

ISO/IEC 42001 provides an internationally recognised framework for this purpose. It helps organisations manage AI systems in a structured way, continuously improve them and establish the foundations for auditability.

Building the Foundation for an Effective AI Management System

The AI Management System Readiness Program provides the knowledge and practical guidance required to establish a structured AI Management System aligned with ISO/IEC 42001. The focus is on translating the requirements of the standard into concrete organisational measures.

With focus on:

  • Understanding the structure and requirements of ISO/IEC 42001
  • Defining roles, responsibilities and governance structures
  • Establishing policies and processes for the use of AI
  • Integrating AI risk management into existing management structures
  • Documenting and monitoring AI systems
  • Building processes for continuous improvement
  • Preparing the organisation for future audits and certification

Participants gain a clear understanding of how to establish an AI Management System in practice and which organisational, procedural and documentation requirements need to be addressed.

More Insights on ISO/IEC 42001 and AI Management Systems

ISO/IEC 42001 is the first international management system standard for artificial intelligence. It defines requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an AI Management System (AIMS).

The standard is designed to help organisations use AI technologies responsibly. It focuses on areas such as governance, transparency, risk management, competence development and continual improvement.

An AI Management System can be implemented by organisations that develop AI systems as well as by those that use, procure or integrate AI applications into existing processes. Its requirements can also be combined with established management systems, for example in quality management, information security or compliance.
