ISO/IEC 42001 AI Management System Specialist

Internal-audit-grade operating skill for ISO/IEC 42001:2023. Three decisions, no executive AI strategy:

1. Where are the AIMS gaps against Clauses 4–10? — coverage scoring per clause + remediation priority
2. What's the AI risk register, and which controls treat each risk? — Annex A.2–A.10 control mapping per ISO 23894 risk method
3. What's the Clause 9.2 internal audit plan? — 12-month schedule with scope, frequency, auditor independence checks

This skill is NOT a chief-ai-officer-advisor replacement. CAIO decides whether to build/buy a model and what business risk to accept. This skill operates the management-system discipline that captures those decisions in audit-ready evidence.

This skill is NOT an EU AI Act compliance skill. ISO 42001 is a voluntary management-system standard; EU AI Act is binding product-safety regulation. They overlap (a high-risk AI system per Article 6(2) of the AI Act typically requires the QMS in Article 17, which ISO 42001 can satisfy in part) but the artefacts differ. See compliance-team-eu-ai-act for Article-level conformity assessment.

This skill is NOT a substitute for ISO 23894 + 38507. 42001 is the management system; 23894 is the AI risk methodology that feeds Clause 6.1; 38507 is the governance lens. The ai_risk_register_builder.py tool implements the 23894 process; treat the references as the methodology bridge.

Quick Start

# Decision A: AIMS gap analysis against Clauses 4-10
python scripts/aims_gap_analyzer.py                           # embedded sample (mid-stage AI SaaS)
python scripts/aims_gap_analyzer.py path/to/aims_evidence.json

# Decision B: AI risk register + Annex A control mapping
python scripts/ai_risk_register_builder.py                    # embedded 7-risk sample
python scripts/ai_risk_register_builder.py path/to/risks.json

# Decision C: Clause 9.2 internal audit 12-month plan
python scripts/aims_audit_scheduler.py                        # embedded 4-domain sample
python scripts/aims_audit_scheduler.py path/to/scope.json

Key Questions (ask these first)

• Does the AIMS scope statement (Clause 4.3) name every AI system, including embedded models and third-party AI services? If "AI features added by our SaaS vendors" is not in scope, the AIMS is incomplete.
• Does the AI policy (Clause 5.2) commit to lawful use AND beneficial purpose AND human oversight AND continual improvement? Missing any of the four = nonconformity at certification.
• Has the AI risk assessment (Clause 6.1.2) been re-run since the last material model change? Concept drift is not a one-time event.
• Who signs the AI impact assessment for high-impact systems (Annex A.5.4)? If no signed accountability, the control is missing.
• What's the internal audit cadence (Clause 9.2)? ISO management-system standards expect ≥ once per 3-year cycle per clause; mature programs do annual.
• Is there a documented procedure for AI incidents (Annex A.9.3)? Untreated post-deployment monitoring is the #1 nonconformity in early adopters.

Core Responsibilities

1. AIMS Gap Analysis (Clauses 4–10)

The framework: ISO 42001 follows the Annex SL high-level structure shared with ISO 9001 / 27001 / 13485. Clauses 4–10 are the management-system requirements; Annex A controls A.1–A.10 are the AI-specific operational controls.

Run aims_gap_analyzer.py with an evidence inventory JSON to score each clause (full / partial / missing) and get a prioritized remediation list.

See references/iso42001_clauses.md for the full clause-by-clause walkthrough with audit evidence expectations.

2. AI Risk Register + Annex A Control Mapping

The framework: Clause 6.1.2 requires AI risk assessment; Clause 6.1.3 requires risk treatment. Annex A provides 38 controls organized into 10 control categories (A.2–A.10). The risk register must show each identified risk linked to ≥ 1 control that treats it.

Annex A control categories (the 10):

ISO/IEC 23894:2023 provides the AI-specific risk-management process (the methodology); 42001 Annex A provides the controls. The risk register is the bridge.

Run ai_risk_register_builder.py with an identified-risks JSON to produce a structured register with mapped controls + residual-risk verdict per ISO 23894 risk-treatment options.

See references/aims_controls_annex_a.md for the full 38-control catalogue with audit evidence per control.

3. Clause 9.2 Internal Audit Plan

The framework: Clause 9.2 requires "internal audits at planned intervals to provide information on whether the AIMS conforms to the organization's requirements and is effectively implemented and maintained." That's the management-system requirement; the how often and how deep are organizational choices.

Mature-program defaults:

• Cover every clause + every applicable Annex A control over a 3-year cycle (rolling)
• Annual full-system audit covering Clauses 4, 5, 9, 10 (the "always relevant" clauses)
• Quarterly or semi-annual deep dives on Clauses 6, 7, 8 by domain (per AI system or per lifecycle phase)
• Auditor independence: nobody audits their own work; A.6 lifecycle owner cannot audit Clause 8 operation

Run aims_audit_scheduler.py with a scope JSON (AI systems in scope, prior-year findings, certification cycle phase) to produce a 12-month plan with auditor assignments and independence checks.

See references/aims_implementation_guide.md for the maturity model and rollout sequencing (year 1 establish, year 2 certify, year 3+ continual improvement).

Workflows

Workflow 1: AIMS Gap Closure for Certification (4–8 weeks)

Goal: Identify gaps; prioritize remediation; close before stage 1 certification audit.

# 1. Inventory current AIMS evidence (policies, procedures, records)
python scripts/aims_gap_analyzer.py aims_evidence.json
# 2. Review gap matrix; group by clause
# 3. For each gap, identify owner + due date (target: close before stage 1)
# 4. Cross-check against ISO 27001 / 13485 existing artifacts — many can be reused
# 5. Cross-check against EU AI Act obligations (use compliance-team-eu-ai-act)
# 6. Output: prioritized remediation plan with owners + dates

Workflow 2: AI Risk Register Build (1–2 weeks)

Goal: Construct the Clause 6.1.2 risk register with full Annex A control coverage.

# 1. Run ISO 23894 risk identification across AI lifecycle (data, model, deployment, decommission)
# 2. Capture each risk with: source, event, consequence, likelihood, impact
python scripts/ai_risk_register_builder.py risks.json
# 3. For each high/critical risk, confirm ≥ 1 Annex A control is selected as treatment
# 4. Document residual risk acceptance with management signoff
# 5. Cross-check with cs-caio-advisor on executive risk acceptance for "tolerate" decisions
# 6. Log via management review (Clause 9.3)

Workflow 3: Annual Internal Audit Plan (1 day)

Goal: Produce the 12-month Clause 9.2 plan with auditor independence.

# 1. Pull last year's audit findings and certification cycle status (year 1/2/3)
python scripts/aims_audit_scheduler.py audit_scope.json
# 2. Confirm auditor independence per assignment
# 3. Confirm coverage hits every clause and every applicable Annex A control over rolling 3 years
# 4. Submit plan for management review approval (Clause 9.3 input)

Workflow 4: Cross-Framework Reuse Mapping (per system onboarded)

Goal: When adding a new AI system, map ISO 42001 evidence against existing 27001 + 13485 evidence to avoid duplication.

1. Pull existing ISO 27001 Annex A controls + ISO 13485 procedures relevant to the system
2. For each ISO 42001 Annex A control, identify whether an existing artifact already satisfies it (e.g., 27001 A.8.16 monitoring activities can extend to AI system monitoring)
3. Add the AI-specific overlay only where the existing control doesn't cover it
4. Document mapping in the AIMS scope statement (Clause 4.3)

Output Standards

**Bottom Line:** [one sentence — gap severity + the one thing to close first]
**The Decision:** [one of: gap-closure | risk-treatment | audit-scope]
**The Evidence:** [clause numbers + control IDs from the tool, not adjectives]
**How to Act:** [3 concrete next steps with owners + dates]
**Your Decision:** [the call only the compliance officer or CAIO can make — risk acceptance, scope expansion, certification readiness]
