Your compliance committee needs to know where the AI governance risks are — not read a report to find out. The Gap Severity Matrix puts all nine gaps, their SRA obligation mapping, severity ratings, and EU AI Act cross-references on a single, high-resolution reference sheet.
Designed for COLP-led compliance agendas, internal audit dashboards, and SRA investigation preparation. Pin it. Project it. Print it. The complete ISO 42001 × SRA picture in one place, in the format legal compliance professionals actually use.

The first three rows are shown in full below. Rows 4–9 are available on purchase. Each row contains the gap, its ISO 42001 clause, the SRA obligation mapped, severity rating, EU AI Act article, and consolidated artefact.
A single-page reference document engineered for governance use — not reading. Designed to be printed at A3, projected in a committee meeting, or used as a dashboard anchor for your COLP-led AI governance review.
Every gap in the ISO 42001 Nine-Gap Audit framework is mapped. Including the four not covered in the free lead magnet — AI Policy (G1), Risk Assessment (G4), AI Lifecycle Management (G5), and Data Governance (G6). The free guide shows where your highest SRA risks are. The matrix shows the complete picture, with severity ratings across all nine.
Each gap is mapped to the SRA Standards and Regulations obligation it directly implicates — Code of Conduct section, Principle reference, and a one-line exposure description. This is the column that converts the matrix from an ISO compliance tool into an SRA regulatory risk document that a COLP can present to the management board.
Severity is calibrated to SRA regulatory exposure and client harm risk, not abstract ISO compliance score. A Critical gap is one where the absence of governance evidence is most likely to constitute a professional conduct issue under the Standards and Regulations. Gaps 4, 6, 7, and 8 are rated Critical. Use severity to prioritise your remediation roadmap and COLP compliance committee agenda.
The EU AI Act creates obligations that run parallel to ISO 42001 requirements. For law firms advising clients on AI matters, or using AI tools that meet the high-risk classification threshold, these obligations may apply directly. Each gap includes the relevant EU AI Act article — allowing your compliance committee to see where ISO 42001 compliance simultaneously closes EU AI Act exposure.
Each gap row identifies the consolidated artefact that closes it — the specific document or record the gap requires. This is the column that converts the matrix from a gap identification tool into a remediation action list. For each gap, you know not just that the gap exists, but what you need to produce to close it. Named, defined, and owner-assignable.
Delivered as a high-resolution PDF at A3 landscape — the format compliance committees and governance teams use for reference documents. Print and laminate for your compliance office. Project from a laptop in a committee meeting. Use as a standing agenda item backdrop. The design is engineered for these use cases, not general reading.
The matrix is a working document, not a reading document. It's for the people who need a complete picture of AI governance risk at a glance — and who need to produce that picture for the management board and the SRA quickly.

The matrix is delivered as a high-resolution PDF file formatted at A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm / 16.5 × 11.7 inches). It is print-colour-adjusted to reproduce correctly on both colour and mono printers. A high-resolution PNG is also included in the download package for digital use — presentations, intranets, screen projection, and Teams/Zoom sharing.
The free guide covers five gaps (G2, G7, G8, G9, G3) in long-form — with SRA investigation scenarios, Warning boxes, and First Fix actions. It is designed for reading and self-assessment. The matrix covers all nine gaps in a single-page reference format — designed for compliance committee use, management board presentation, and SRA investigation preparation. They serve different purposes and different audiences. The matrix is the logical second step after the free guide: you know what your highest SRA risks are, now you need the complete governance picture in committee-ready format.
Severity ratings are calibrated against SRA Standards and Regulations obligations and published enforcement guidance — specifically the SRA's enforcement strategy, Code of Conduct provisions, and published investigation and adjudication decisions. They reflect SRA regulatory risk — the likelihood that absence of governance evidence for a given gap will constitute a professional conduct issue under the Standards and Regulations. Critical gaps (G4, G6, G7, G8) are those where absence most directly implicates client harm obligations or personal COLP accountability. They are governance judgements, not statistical measures based on enforcement data.
EU AI Act references are current to Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 as enacted. The matrix includes article references and brief descriptions of the parallel obligation. For full EU AI Act compliance assessment — particularly for law firms advising clients on high-risk AI deployments — the matrix is a cross-reference tool, not a compliance programme. Firms with EU AI Act client advice obligations should take qualified legal advice on the regulation's application to their specific circumstances.
