How this maps to your situation

  • Before ISO 42001 implementation begins
  • During initial control mapping and evidence collection
  • After first audit cycle completion
  • During leadership or team transitions

Before vs. after

Before
Governance work resets with each cycle, relying heavily on tribal knowledge and last-minute efforts
After
Each audit strengthens the system, documentation, mappings, and narratives compound, requiring less effort over time
