🇨🇦 Canada · AI Vendor Assessment
A three-artifact deliverable: an Executive Summary Word document for sign-off (recommendation, top risk flags, top strengths, sign-off block), a 30-question scored Excel workbook with auto-summing category totals and an Evidence Request List tab, and a companion Procurement Checklist with foundational readiness items. Aligned to ISO/IEC 42001:2023 Annex A or the NIST AI Risk Management Framework — your choice at form time.
The output is anchored on the regulations that apply to AI deployments in CA. The top frameworks cited:
LAPSED — Bill C-27 (including CPPA) died when Parliament prorogued 6 January 2025 and has not been reintroduced. Do NOT cite CPPA as active or pending law. Cite PIPEDA instead.
LAPSED — Bill C-27 (including AIDA) died when Parliament prorogued 6 January 2025 and has not been reintroduced. Do NOT cite AIDA as active or pending law. Cite PIPEDA and OPC voluntary AI guidance instead.
Organisations must obtain meaningful consent before collecting personal information, limit collection to stated purposes, implement safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information, and cooperate with OPC investigations.
Organisations using personal information to render a decision based exclusively on automated processing must inform the affected individual, who may then request human review and present observations to have the decision reconsidered.
You describe the vendor (name and product or service) and your organisation's context — jurisdiction, industry, staff size, risk appetite — and choose your alignment framework: ISO/IEC 42001:2023, NIST AI RMF, or both. The tool produces a structured, evidence-based assessment ready to hand to your procurement, legal, and information-security teams.
The Executive Summary Word document is a one-page sign-off artifact — recommendation (Approved / Conditional / Rejected), top three risk flags, top three strengths, sign-off block. The detailed Excel workbook is the working assessment instrument: 30 questions across six weighted categories, with evidence guidance, regulatory call-outs, and an auto-summing scoring sheet. Both are AI-assisted drafting aids intended to accelerate review by qualified practitioners.
