How SMEs Should Prepare for EU AI Act Compliance

Published by Passorra

The EU AI Act is transforming how organizations deploy and manage artificial intelligence systems. For SMEs and startups, preparing early is the best way to avoid disruption later.

Step 1: Identify AI Systems

Organizations should start by documenting all AI tools used internally or embedded within products.

Step 2: Evaluate Risk Levels

Each system should be reviewed to determine how it fits within the EU AI Act risk classification framework.

Step 3: Establish Governance Processes

AI governance processes help organizations maintain oversight and accountability when AI systems are deployed.

Step 4: Maintain Documentation

Companies should maintain documentation explaining system purpose, risk classification, and oversight mechanisms.
