Abstract

This document specifies additional requirements to ISO/IEC 17021-1. The requirements contained in this document, when implemented, support the demonstration of competence, consistency and reliability by the bodies performing auditing and certification of an artificial intelligence management system (AIMS) according to ISO/IEC 42001 for organizations that provide, develop or use AI systems. Certification of AIMS is a third-party conformity assessment activity (as described in ISO/IEC 17000:2020, 4.5), and bodies performing this activity are third-party conformity assessment bodies. This document also provides the necessary information and confidence to customers about the way certification has been granted. NOTE This document can be used as a criteria document for accreditation or peer assessment.
