ISO 42001 - Artificial Intelligence Systems
The new ISO 42001 has been claiming its own attention for the past few months after companies and businesses started implementing artificial intelligence as a key tool for their operations. However, the issue of fully compliance with it lies in whether it is needed for the place. ISO Pros is a top service able to work with you through the identification, definition, analysis, implementation, and certification process in case your business is within the parameters of ISO 42001.
But how can you determine whether it is or if you should be aiming for a different ISO?
Since most standards are designed to address particular areas of your company or operations, don’t see them as individuals as a whole. ISO 42001, for instance, is designed to help you build a structured framework for your space. This way, you won’t have to worry about AI risk management and how your systems are being handled.
Companies that heavily rely on AI management systems and any operations around them need compliance. However, others that are already following some such as ISO 27001, which is focused on information security, could benefit from ISO 42001 to have a well-established AI risk control.
Therefore, knowing if the investment is worth it goes beyond the basics of the ISO and who it is for.
How to Combine ISO 42001 with Current Standards
Adding a new ISO to your list of compliance and certifications does not mean you should neglect the rest or omit specifics regarding previous standards or some you may need to implement in the future.
ISO 42001 and ISO 9001 are good examples of how balance is needed in order to align with quality governance while still prioritizing AI compliance.
ISO 9001 and its focus on quality can be improved by following the processes under ISO 42001, but it also works the other way around. Hence, reviewing ISO 9001 in order to guarantee existing or better quality for assurance of your processes and AI management systems will be the best steps for your company or business.
How can you make it possible?
Since ISO 9001 is the most basic standard to follow regardless of the type of business or in what industry you are in, the idea is to understand well if your company is still compliant. From there, work on the way ISO 42001 will be implemented without affecting your current standards.
