Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS)
Plain-language explanation
A management system for establishing policies, objectives, processes, responsibilities, and continual improvement related to the responsible development, provision, or use of AI systems.
Why It Matters
An AIMS turns AI governance from a collection of separate policies into an organized management system with defined responsibilities, processes, monitoring, and improvement.
In Practice
An AIMS provides organizational structure around AI governance. It can connect inventory, risk management, objectives, resources, operational controls, monitoring, internal review, and improvement activities.
