What Is the Gap?

The gap is the distance between the requirements of ISO 42001 and your current reality. In this workshop, we conduct a gap analysis that makes exactly this gap transparent.

Our goal: We uncover everything you need to build an AIMS (AI management system)—tailored to your individual situation, concrete and without guesswork.

🎯

Transparency instead of surprises: You learn precisely which resources and information you need, where to find them, and how to keep them up to date.

The Three Pillars of the Gap Analysis

How we translate ISO requirements into your reality

Understanding ISO 42001

Structure and requirements

Overview of the structure of ISO 42001
Each of the requirements explained
Which areas are relevant to you?
How are the requirements interconnected?

Your benefit: You understand what the standard really expects of you— clearly explained, without jargon.

Translating ISO ↔ Reality

Your individual situation

What specific information do you need?
Where can you find this information in your organization?
Who is responsible for it?
What is still missing and needs to be obtained?
How do we close the gaps?

Your benefit: No more abstract requirements—only concrete tasks tailored to your reality.

Automation & Sustainability

Keeping information up to date

How can information stay current without much effort?
Which processes can be automated?
How do you avoid manual maintenance work?
Which tools can support you?

Your benefit: A system that is alive and working— instead of dead documentation that is outdated the moment it is written.

What You Take Away

Concrete results for your next step

📋

Your Personal Checklist

At the end of the workshop, you will hold a clear checklist tailored to your situation:

🔧 Required Resources

What staffing capacity do you need?
Which roles need to be filled?
What external expertise is required?
What budget should you plan for?

📊 Required Information

What data and documentation are needed?
Where can you find this information?
Who is responsible for it?
Which information is missing entirely?

⚙️ Processes & Tools

Which processes need to be established?
Which tools can you use?
What can be automated?
How do you keep everything up to date?

🗺️ Your Roadmap

Which steps need to be taken, and in what order?
How long will implementation take?
Where are quick wins possible?
What are the critical success factors?

✅

No more surprises: You know exactly what lies ahead— and can make an informed decision about how you want to proceed.

Why This Kind of Gap Analysis?

👁️

Individual Assessment

No standard checklist, but an analysis that takes into account your specific situation, your AI systems, and your organizational structure.

💡

Practice-Oriented

We translate ISO language into concrete actions. Instead of abstract requirements, you know exactly where to find which information.

🔄

Built to Last

We show you how to keep information up to date through automation— so your management system stays alive instead of becoming a documentation graveyard.

🎯

Transparent & Honest

We don't hold anything back. You learn the full scope of what is necessary— so you can make realistic decisions.

Investment

The cost of a gap analysis depends on your individual situation. Every organization has different AI systems, processes, and requirements that need to be taken into account.

Price: On request

Duration: 2–3 days

Format: On-site at your organization

After an initial conversation about your situation, we will prepare an individual quote based on the scope and complexity of your AI landscape.
