Work Programme - AI Standards in Manufacturing
European Standardisation body CEN/CLC/JTC 21
The European Standardization organizations CEN and CENELEC are tasked with developing a broad range of standards commissioned by the EU. Below is a timeline of their work program for the upcoming two years.
Although these standards are still under development, they are expected to play a key role in ensuring presumed conformity with the forthcoming AI Act.
This information was last updated in February 2026. For more details on their Artificial Intelligence work program, check out their official webpage where this table is taken from.
