AROBS becomes the first company in Romania certified ISO for artificial intelligence management

Cluj-Napoca, February 10, 2026 – AROBS Transilvania Software (BVB: AROBS), the largest technology company listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange, announces that it has obtained the ISO/IEC 42001 – AI Management System certification, the first international standard dedicated to artificial intelligence (AI) management systems. AROBS is the first company in Romania to complete the ISO/IEC 42001 – AI Management System certification process and to receive this certification from Bureau Veritas, at a time when an increasing number of organizations are analyzing or initiating steps in this direction, but few have completed the full audit and certification process. This positioning comes in a context in which AROBS consistently integrates emerging international standards into its governance and compliance framework.

ISO/IEC 42001 defines the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an AI management system, applicable to organizations that develop, provide, or use AI solutions. The standard aims to support companies in responsibly addressing AI-specific risks, while ensuring alignment with the expectations of customers, partners, and regulators in a global context where the use of AI is becoming increasingly widespread.

For AROBS, ISO/IEC 42001 certification is a strategic decision, going beyond a compliance and governance exercise. Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming core to the products and operations of global companies, and the real differentiator will be the ability to govern it responsibly, in a scalable and predictable manner. By implementing this standard, we are building a clear AI governance framework – from risk management and accountability to performance monitoring and continuous improvement. It is a natural step in a market where trust, transparency, and control are becoming competitive advantages. For our clients and partners, this initiative confirms that AROBS delivers advanced technology solutions aligned with the highest international standards, in an increasingly regulated and complex global environment,” stated Voicu Oprean, Founder and CEO of AROBS.

The ISO/IEC 42001 – AI Management System certification was awarded by Bureau Veritas Romania following an audit process that assessed AROBS’ AI governance framework, the associated internal policies and processes, as well as the way risks and responsibilities are managed throughout the entire AI systems lifecycle.

The ISO/IEC 42001 certification obtained by AROBS confirms the maturity and responsibility with which the organization approaches the development and use of artificial intelligence. The audit highlighted a solid AI governance framework, with clearly defined processes for managing risks, responsibilities, and compliance across the entire lifecycle of artificial intelligence systems. For Bureau Veritas, this project reflects our commitment to supporting organizations in Romania in adopting emerging international standards that are essential in a constantly evolving technological environment,” stated Claudia Stancu, Certification and Training Manager Romania, Bureau Veritas.

Obtaining ISO/IEC 42001 strengthens AROBS’ governance framework at a time when organizations must demonstrate not only innovation in the use of artificial intelligence, but also genuine compliance with new European regulatory requirements such as the AI Act, CRA, and the NIS2 Directive. From an information security and cyber resilience perspective, this standard concretely complements the systems already implemented, providing clear control over AI-related risks, responsibilities, decision traceability, and data protection throughout the entire AI systems lifecycle. For our clients and partners, ISO/IEC 42001 represents a guarantee that AROBS solutions are developed and operated in a secure, responsible manner, ready to meet current and future compliance and security requirements,” stated Romeo Andreica, CISO of AROBS.

The ISO/IEC 42001 certification complements AROBS’ extensive portfolio of certifications, which support the company’s integrated approach to quality, information security, occupational health and safety, and environmental protection. AROBS holds ISO 9001 certification for quality management, ISO/IEC 27001 for information security management, TISAX for information security in the automotive industry, as well as ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 for environmental management and occupational health and safety, alongside other certifications specific to the activities and markets in which the Group operates.
