ISO 42001 Gap Analysis: What to Check Before Starting Certification
An ISO 42001 gap analysis compares how you govern AI today with what ISO/IEC 42001:2023 requires. Do it before you commit to audit dates. You’ll learn what’s missing, what you can’t yet prove and what to fix first. Quick answer What it is: a structured review of your AI management system (AIMS) against ISO/IEC 42001:2023 clauses 4–10 and the applicable Annex A controls. Is it mandatory? No. The standard requires an internal audit and management review, not a gap analysis.
