AI Impact Assessments: Guiding Regulatory Compliance and Rights Protection under the EU AI Act

Mandatory for compliance with the EU AI Act is the requirement for providers of high-risk AI systems to establish a quality management system (QMS) under Article 17. Peter Hill will examine the role of the QMS as the central framework for demonstrating compliance with the Act’s essential requirements (Articles 8–15). He will provide a pragmatic overview of how organisations can implement and maintain a QMS aligned with prEN 18286 (AI Quality Management Systems), covering topics like leadership commitment, governance and accountability framework, risk planning and risk management, operational controls and testing performance. Through practical examples and implementation guidance, Peter will illustrate how a well-structured QMS based on prEN 18286 AI QMS enables organisations to embed health, safety and fundamental rights protections from the outset, balancing visionary AI innovation with vigilant regulatory oversight.
