ISO 27001 Information Security and ISO 42001 AI Management Systems consultancy services
ISO 27001 Information Security and ISO 42001 AI Management Systems consultancy services
The EU AI Act is law. Is your AI system compliant? We help UK tech companies implement ISO 42001 — the international standard for responsible, ethical and secure AI management.
The EU AI Act came into force in August 2024. High-risk AI systems face fines of up to EUR 30 million or 6% of global turnover for non-compliance.
ISO 42001 is the internationally recognised management system to demonstrate compliance.
If your company develops, deploys, or uses AI — including machine learning models, large language models, automated decision-making tools, or SaaS platforms powered by AI — you are within scope of the EU AI Act and emerging UK AI regulation. ISO 42001 provides the management system framework to govern your AI responsibly, demonstrate compliance to clients and regulators, and protect your business from reputational and legal risk. Accel Infotec is one of very few UK firms with an in-house team of certified ISO 42001 AIMS Lead Implementers and Lead Auditors — giving you implementation expertise and audit rigour under one roof.
Our in-house certified ISO 42001 AIMS Lead Implementers architect your bespoke AI Management System from the ground up, ensuring responsible, compliant, and secure AI development and deployment. Your AIMS will meet ISO 42001:2023 requirements and be audit-ready for third-party certification.
Moving beyond traditional IT security, we identify risks specific to AI lifecycles — including algorithmic bias, model drift, data poisoning, and complex societal impacts from automated decision-making. Our assessments give you documented evidence of due diligence.
Protect your brand from reputational damage before it happens. We establish clear transparency, fairness, and accountability frameworks tailored specifically for your machine learning models and AI-powered products — requirements increasingly demanded by enterprise clients and procurement teams.
We eliminate compliance confusion by mapping your AIMS controls directly to the EU AI Act, NIST AI Risk Management Framework, the UK AI Regulatory Principles, and evolving global AI safety standards — giving you one coherent compliance posture across all frameworks.
This service is designed for:
ISO/IEC 42001:2023 is the world's first international standard for AI Management Systems (AIMS). It provides a framework to manage AI responsibly throughout its lifecycle — covering risk management, ethical use, data governance and continuous improvement. For UK tech firms it demonstrates responsible AI to regulators, clients and investors.
ISO 27001 focuses on information security management, while ISO 42001 is specific to AI governance — including fairness, transparency, explainability and societal impact. Many organisations implement both side-by-side to align security and AI management.
If you develop or deploy AI within scope of the EU AI Act or supply enterprise clients with AI-enabled products, certification provides independent assurance and procurement advantage.
ISO 42001 maps closely to EU AI Act obligations for risk management, data governance, documentation and human oversight — making compliance demonstration far easier and more systematic.
Typically 3–6 months depending on AI maturity, existing ISMS and scope. Our lead implementers at Accel Infotec deliver a phased roadmap with templates and audit preparation.
