AI Monitoring & Evaluation Policy Template

Defines requirements for continuous monitoring, performance evaluation, and periodic auditing of AI systems in production. (ISO/IEC 42001: Clause 9 — Performance Evaluation)

What This Policy Covers

Purpose and Scope-Policy objectives and AI systems subject to monitoring and evaluation.

Performance Metrics and KPIs-AI system performance indicators: accuracy, latency, throughput, and business metrics.

Model Drift Detection-Data drift and concept drift monitoring, alerting thresholds, and response procedures.

Fairness and Bias Monitoring-Production bias metrics, demographic parity checks, and remediation triggers.

Data Pipeline Quality Monitoring-Input data quality checks, schema validation, and anomaly detection.

Model Revalidation Schedule-Periodic retraining and revalidation cadence based on system risk level.

Internal Audit Requirements-AIMS audit scope, frequency, auditor independence, and reporting.

Management Review-Review inputs, outputs, corrective actions, and improvement decisions.
