The standard requires organisations that build or use AI systems to assess impact on people, treat risks, control the lifecycle from design to retirement and review performance over time.

Requirements

What ISO 42001 requires

Strip away the vocabulary and ISO/IEC 42001 requires a company to prove six things about how it governs the AI it builds or uses.

You know where AI is usedThe AI systems you develop, provide or use are identified, together with the role your organisation plays for each.
Leadership sets the rules for AITop management sets an AI policy and objectives, assigns accountability and provides resources for responsible use.
You assessed AI risks and impactsRisks from AI systems, and their impacts on individuals, groups and society, are assessed before and during use and then treated.
Each AI system is managed through its lifeDesign, data, testing, deployment, monitoring and retirement follow defined processes with records you can show.
Data and third parties are under controlThe quality and origin of data, and suppliers of models or components, are managed against your own requirements.
You monitor, audit and improveAI systems and the management system are monitored, audited internally and reviewed by management, with problems corrected.

ISO 42001 in Pune: questions clients ask

Why would a Pune firm consider ISO 42001?

Clients of Hinjewadi and Magarpatta teams are starting to ask how AI is approved, supervised and reviewed. The standard answers with policy, impact assessment and lifecycle controls. It is voluntary, and legal requirements on AI should be confirmed with your counsel.

What is an AI impact assessment in this standard?

It evaluates how an AI system could affect individuals, groups and society, considering purpose, data, accuracy, bias and misuse. The results feed risk treatment and approval. Keep a record for each significant system, reviewed when the system or its use changes. A short readiness review with Sterling helps settle this early.
