Build an audit-proof Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS) spanning all 38 Annex A controls across 9 objectives. We guide your enterprise seamlessly through Stage 1 and Stage 2 certification audits.
Standardized 5-Phase Technical Methodology
We define the organizational context, boundaries, and scope of your Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS), drafting policies and the initial Statement of Applicability (SoA).
- Defining internal/external context, interested parties, and legal/regulatory requirements
- Formulating the overarching AI Policy aligned with executive leadership objectives
- Establishing AI roles, authorities, and internal reporting channels (Clause A.3)
- Drafting the Statement of Applicability (SoA) evaluating all 38 Annex A controls
We implement Annex A access controls, resource tracking, data provenance safeguards, and AI vendor management protocols across designated priority AI systems.
- Compiling machine-readable AIBOMs documenting compute, data, and tooling resources (A.4)
- Institutionalizing AI System Impact Assessment (AIA) protocols and documentation (A.5)
- Implementing lifecycle verification procedures from development through deployment (A.6)
