The Pack

Eight artifacts, one AIMS

These eight documents are most of the documented information ISO 42001 asks for. We provide them tailored to your AI inventory as part of a consultation — because a template only becomes useful, and audit-ready, once it reflects your actual systems and risk criteria.

AI system inventory / use-case register

Every AI system with its intended purpose, owner, data sources, and risk classification — the foundation of the AIMS.

AI policy

A leadership-signed AI policy aligned to Annex A.2 and your other organizational policies.

AI risk assessment register

A structured register across the AI-specific risk categories, with likelihood, impact, treatment, and owner.

AI system impact assessment (A.5)

A template for assessing impacts on individuals, groups, and society — the artifact auditors probe hardest.

Statement of Applicability

A pre-built SoA covering all 38 Annex A controls, ready to mark applicability and justification.

AI supplier & foundation-model assessment

A questionnaire for evaluating third-party and foundation-model risk under Annex A.10.

Internal audit checklist

A clause-by-clause and control-by-control checklist for the mandatory internal audit.

Management review pack

An agenda and minutes template covering the inputs ISO 42001 requires at management review.

These integrate naturally with an AIMS and are available to download today — no form required. ISO 27001 is the ISMS your AI governance extends; DPDP and SOC 2 cover the data and trust obligations that travel alongside AI.

Looking for the AI-specific templates? They are part of the AIMS pack above. Learn the methodology behind them in the risk & impact assessment guide and the Annex A controls catalog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Honest answers about what's free, what's tailored, and why.

What templates do you need for ISO 42001?

The core set is: an AI system inventory or use-case register; an AI policy; an AI risk assessment register; an AI system impact assessment template (Annex A.5); a Statement of Applicability covering the 38 Annex A controls; a third-party and foundation-model assessment; an internal audit checklist; and a management review pack. Together these are most of the documented information ISO 42001 expects. The inventory comes first — every other template references it.

Are the ISO 42001 templates free to download?

Our related-framework resources — the ISO 27001 readiness checklist, the DPDP Act compliance template, and the SOC 2 assessments — are free to download from this page right now. The full ISO 42001 AIMS template pack is provided as part of a consultation or engagement rather than as a blind download, because the templates only deliver value once they are tailored to your actual AI systems, data, and risk criteria. Request the pack and we will scope it to your environment.

Why isn't the full AI template pack a direct download?

A generic AI policy or empty risk register downloaded cold tends to sit unused. ISO 42001 is risk- and impact-driven: the Statement of Applicability, the controls you implement, and the assessments you run all depend on your specific AI inventory and context. We provide the pack alongside a short scoping conversation so it arrives pre-aligned to your systems — which is also what makes it audit-ready rather than shelfware.

Can I reuse my ISO 27001 documentation for ISO 42001?

Substantially, yes. Because both standards share the Annex SL structure, your ISO 27001 scope, context analysis, leadership commitments, internal-audit machinery, and management-review cadence extend to the AIMS with AI-specific additions. That is why the ISO 27001 readiness checklist on this page is a useful companion: organizations with a mature ISMS typically cut ISO 42001 implementation and audit effort by reusing what they already run.
