AI & Technology Readiness Assessment
A joined-up view of whether the business can capture the technology and AI upside assumed in the strategy—and where risk, capability or execution could undermine it.
Assessment lens
AI readiness is more than model selection.
The assessment connects business strategy, data, architecture, governance, security, people and operating capability rather than treating AI as an isolated technology workstream.
Opportunity
Where can AI or technology materially improve product, growth, operating leverage or decision quality?
Exposure
Where could disruption, weak data, architecture constraints or governance gaps erode the thesis?
Execution
What capability, leadership, sequencing and controls are needed to move from ambition to delivery?
Scope

Roadmap
Separate what should happen now from what belongs in the next investment cycle.
The assessment is designed to produce both a near-term 100-day action view and a longer 12-month roadmap, with dependencies and leadership needs made explicit.
100-day view
Immediate risk reduction, governance, data, architecture and capability actions that unblock execution.
12-month view
Sequenced initiatives, capability build, platform evolution and measurable priorities for management and the board.
Scope boundary
Readiness conversation
Start with the business decisions AI and technology need to support.
The first discussion can focus on the investment thesis, portfolio priority, transformation programme or board question before defining the evidence required.
