ISO 42001 Certification:
What is it and when is it needed?

ISO/IEC 42001 (AIMS - Artificial Intelligence Management System) is the international standard for the requirements of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) management system. The standard helps organisations manage the use of AI technologies in a secure, compliant and transparent manner. An AI Management System (AIMS) according to ISO 42001 helps to identify risks in the use of AI and to reduce them to a level that is appropriate for the organisation.

ISO 42001 certification is particularly useful if organisations are developing or deploying AI applications that are classified as high-risk AI systems under the EU AI Act - and want to meet regulatory requirements and build trust with customers, business partners and regulators. Certification can also be an important building block in governance, risk and compliance strategies to demonstrate the responsible use of AI.

The result:
Responsible & traceable use of AI

Structured management of AI risks: Clear processes will be put in place to identify, assess and mitigate risks associated with artificial intelligence.
Regulatory compliance: Certification helps to ensure that legal requirements and industry-specific specifications are met when using AI.
Increased confidence in AI systems: Implementing a recognised standard creates transparency and trust among customers, partners and regulators - especially for sensitive data-based business models.

Frequently asked questions about ISO 42001 certification

What is ISO 42001?

ISO/IEC 42001 is the first international standard to specify requirements for an Artificial Intelligence (AI) management system. It helps organisations to manage AI systems responsibly and effectively by defining policies and processes for their development, implementation and monitoring.

For which organisations is ISO 42001 relevant?

The certification is aimed at any organisation that develops or uses AI technologies. This includes companies that offer AI products or services, as well as those that use AI internally for process optimisation or decision support, especially when it comes to high-risk AI systems as defined by the AI Act.

What are the benefits of ISO 42001 certification?

ISO 42001 certification demonstrates an organisation's commitment to structured and responsible AI practices. It builds trust with customers and partners, supports compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, and promotes operational efficiency through standardised processes for handling AI systems.

What makes ISO 42001 different from other management system standards?

ISO 42001 is specifically designed to address the challenges and risks associated with artificial intelligence. While other standards such as ISO 9001 (quality management) or ISO/IEC 27001 (information security management) deal with general management systems, ISO 42001 focuses on the responsible development and use of AI systems.

How does the ISO 42001 certification process work?

The certification process begins with the implementation of an AI management system in accordance with the requirements of ISO 42001. This is followed by an audit by an accredited certification body to verify that the management system complies with the standard. Upon successful completion of the audit, certification is awarded and must be periodically confirmed through surveillance audits.
