Bureau Veritas Launches An Independent AI Assessment Offering For European Enterprises Bureau Veritas announces the launch of an AI systems audit to help European enterprises assess and demonstrate their compliance with the European Union's AI Act regulatory requirements. This offering combines on-site audits, document analysis, and direct testing to deliver an independent maturity report. Since the EU's AI regulation came into force in 2024, companies have faced major implementation challenges. According to a recent report, 68% of them struggle to interpret the provisions of the text, while 60% have yet to put in place the governance needed to comply. Non-compliance can cost them up to 7% of annual revenue. Bureau Veritas has developed this new audit offering to help companies identify their compliance gaps and remedy them. Bureau Veritas's new audit offering comprises a pre-audit, document review, on-site audit, and direct testing, resulting in an independent report on the client's AI maturity. This assessment is built on eight standardized pillars covering the full spectrum of risks: security, robustness, data privacy, governance, fairness, explainability, controllability, and transparency. To develop this offering, Bureau Veritas relies on AWS AI Risk Intelligence (AIRI), the automated governance solution developed by the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center, a global team of AWS experts who help companies design, develop, and deploy AI solutions. AIRI enables automation of document review and direct testing, thus reducing audit cycles from several weeks to just a few days. Bureau Veritas has adapted this tool to its audit processes to meet the specific needs of its auditors. With this new offering, they have clear indicators enabling them to quickly and precisely identify vulnerabilities in AI systems, transform abstract governance concepts into measurable and actionable information, and formulate remediation recommendations to help companies achieve compliance. The offering targets large enterprises and mid-sized companies in Europe. Deployment will begin in the second quarter of 2026 in several key markets: France, United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and Nordic countries. In the United Kingdom, the offering relies on international standards, notably ISO, applicable independently of the European regulatory framework. Bureau Veritas plans to deploy this offering beyond Europe and adapt AIRI to integrate other regulatory frameworks and international standards related to AI. Duyuru • Feb 26
