Schellman becomes first certification body for ISO AI standard
Top 50 Firm Schellman has become the first ANSI National Accreditation Board-accredited International Organization for Standardization 42001 certification body, allowing the firm to certify organizations on the world’s first artificial intelligence management system standard. ISO 42001 is the first global standard that provides a certifiable framework for responsibly developing and deploying AI with security, privacy, and quality. Schellman is now authorized to audit for and grant certification with ISO 42001 compliance. Organizations seeking certification must align with the standard’s requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving their AIMS. Doing so mitigates risk, builds trust, and reassures customers, clients, stakeholders and society of the safe and responsible development and use of these AI systems. This is part of the firm’s emphasis on AI governance in 2024 as more enterprises are adopting AI tools.
