Pre-trained models which are used for development are monitored as part of AI system regular monitoring and maintenance. Pre-trained and transfer-learned models are treated as a monitored component in their own right, since their provenance and behaviour are not controlled by the deploying organisation.

where the evidence lives
teal = a system already holds it · olive = produced at each review. To go live: easy when half or more of the artefacts are already held by a system, moderate from a quarter to a half, hard below a quarter.

These are the artefacts auditors commonly ask for on this requirement, our guidance rather than text from the standard. Your assessor decides what is sufficient in your context, and asks for samples across the period when a report covers one.

  • Assessment of risks carried over from the pre-training data and objective · HR system / LMS

  • Identification of pre-trained models used, with version and provenance · Vendor register / contract repository
  • The procedure followed when the upstream model is updated or withdrawn · Vendor register / contract repository

First move

Start with the 1 of 4 artefacts that already live in a system (SIEM / log platform); keep the periodic reviews but log each one as a dated record with a named reviewer.
