SGS Presents its First FDIS ISO/IEC 42001 Certificate

We are proud to present our first FDIS ISO/IEC 42001 (artificial intelligence management system, or AIMS) certification to technology company AI Clearing.

The right place at the right time.

Sometimes everything just falls into place. We are attending the prestigious World Summit AI in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and it is Cybersecurity Awareness Month.

There is no better place and time to present our first FDIS ISO/IEC 42001 (information technology – artificial intelligence management system, or AIMS) certification.

AI Clearing, which specializes in construction progress monitoring through its cutting-edge software as a service (SaaS) platform, AI Surveyor^TM Engine, worked diligently throughout the audit process. This certification means they can implement AI more safely and efficiently.

What is ISO/IEC 42001?

In response to the rise of AI and the challenges it creates, the ISO and IEC have created the ISO/IEC 42001 standard.

This global standard specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an AIMS. The goal is to help organizations and society benefit the most from AI while reassuring stakeholders that systems are being developed and used responsibly.

What are the benefits of ISO/IEC 42001 certification?

ISO/IEC 42001 certification follows successful completion of an audit and enables you to:

• Implement AI safely, with evidence of responsibility and accountability
• Consider security, safety, fairness, transparency and data and AI system quality throughout the life cycle
• Show that introducing AI is a strategic decision with clear objectives
• Indicate strong governance concerning AI
• Strike a balance between governance and innovation
• Ensure that AI is used responsibly, especially concerning its continuous learning
• Ensure that all relevant safeguards are in place
• Combine key frameworks with experience to implement crucial processes like risk, life cycle and data quality management
• Contribute to multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

How can SGS help?

To implement an AIMS, you will need a solid understanding of ISO/IEC 42001's requirements. We offer training to provide the required knowledge.

Once the system is in place, we can provide a gap assessment. After the successful completion of an audit, we will issue your certificate, confirming the effective implementation of the standard's requirements.
