Schellman, a Tampa-based attestation and compliance services provider, has become the first certification body accredited by ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) to certify organizations against the ISO 42001 AI standard, the company announced.
ISO 42001, described as the world’s first global AI standard, provides a framework for organizations to establish, implement, maintain and improve their AI management systems. The standard aims to mitigate risks and build trust in AI technologies by focusing on responsible, ethical, secure and quality-driven development. This accreditation allows Schellman to assess companies’ AI systems for responsible development and deployment.
“This is a significant achievement for not only our ISO and AI practices, but our firm overall,” said Danny Manimbo, a principal at Schellman. “As a firm, we’ve prioritized AI governance in 2024 in terms of ensuring that our core service offerings can adapt and stay relevant to emerging technologies, such as AI.”
