What is ISO 42001?

ISO 42001 is the international standard for AI management systems. It sets out how an organisation governs the development and use of AI responsibly.

In health and care, AI also needs clinical safety assurance under DCB0129 and DCB0160. We bring ISO 42001, clinical risk management and AI assurance together in one approach.

Frequently asked questions

Who is ISO 42001 for?

Any organisation that develops, provides or uses AI systems and wants a recognised way to govern them.

Does ISO 42001 replace clinical safety?

No. In health and care, AI still needs clinical risk management under DCB0129 and DCB0160. ISO 42001 sits alongside it.

Can we combine it with ISO 27001?

Yes. ISO 42001 follows the same management system structure, so it fits well with an existing ISMS.
