I use AI every day in my work, and I’m open about it, because you should know how your system is being built.
What it does for you
AI helps me work faster and look deeper. It lets me read through a lot of material, such as your strategic plan, procedures, audit records and risk registers, and spot gaps and connections more quickly. It helps me draft first versions of plans, registers and templates, so my time goes on your site, your people and your decisions rather than on formatting.
For you that means quicker turnaround and more thorough work. When I scope a project, I can, if time allows, include things that would normally be extra, such as advice on business continuity, legal compliance and software, alongside the ISO work.
What it doesn’t do
How your information is handled
Your information is confidential. My proposal will include a confidentiality clause. I also encourage the use of NDAs for relevant projects.
Because I work with ISO 27001 and 42001, I apply the same standards to myself that I’d ask of you.
An example: Winget Limited
Winget, a UK manufacturer of concrete mixers, was changing its ERP system and wanted to use the opportunity to improve its processes rather than move old ones into a new system. I used AI to analyse their strategic plan and operational evidence and draft an initial gap analysis, then turned the priorities into objectives, an implementation plan, a drawing register and risk inputs for management review.
At each stage I tested the work against audit evidence, site observations and ISO 9001, and Winget’s leadership made the decisions. Their next surveillance audit had no major or minor nonconformities. [Read the full case study →]
The value wasn’t just faster drafting. It was that each stage built on work already approved, so the evidence, decisions and actions stayed consistent.
ISO 42001: using AI safely, and being able to prove it
Your team is probably already using AI, whether that’s drafting, analysis, estimating, customer service or software with AI built in. The question clients, insurers and tender assessors are starting to ask is: who decided how it’s used, and how do you know it’s under control?
ISO/IEC 42001 is the answer. It’s the international standard for an AI management system, and it can be certified. I help UK SMEs put in place a proportionate version of it, without a heavy bureaucracy.
Is it relevant to you?
It applies to organisations that develop, provide or use AI, so you don’t need to be a tech company. It’s relevant if:
What it covers
ISO 42001 follows the same structure as the other ISO standards, so it fits alongside them. It asks you to:
How I help
Already certified to another ISO standard? Most of the work builds on what you have, with one management review, one set of internal audits and one system. See Integrated Management Systems →Management Systems and ISO Implementation
