What should already be in place — audit framing
2 August 2025 is 302 days behind us. The obligations on this page have been in force since then; treat any gap as an audit finding, not a planning question. The expected baseline under AI Act:
- conformity assessment for high-risk systems — should be done already
- technical documentation (Annex IV) — should be done already
- fundamental rights impact assessment for deployers — should be done already
If any of these are missing, the right next step is a gap assessment plus a documented remediation plan — not a re-design of the underlying programme.
