AI readiness assessment: a ranked AI plan in 2 weeks

An AI readiness assessment checks whether a company’s workflows, data, systems, people and risk controls can support AI, then names the projects worth building first. Ours takes 2 weeks and costs $2,500 fixed. You get a ranked list of AI projects, each with a cost, expected hours saved, risks and an owner.

Frameworks differ, but most score five pillars: strategy and use cases, data, technology and systems, people and skills, and governance and risk. Some group them into three: data, technology and people. Our assessment scores all five for each workflow, so the plan shows what to fix before a build and what can start now.

Maturity models usually run from awareness, through experiments and pilots, to AI in production and then AI across the business. Teams in one company often sit at different stages. Our AI maturity assessment places each team on that scale and names the one step that moves it forward, with a cost.

Ours costs $2,500 fixed and takes 2 weeks. The full fee is credited to your first build with us, so the assessment is free if you go ahead. Pilots on the top-ranked workflow start at $7,000, and production rollouts start at $13,000. Our AI implementation cost guide shows typical ranges.

You get a readout with your leaders and a written plan. It ranks the AI projects worth building, each with a cost, expected hours saved, data gaps, risks and a named owner. It also covers the AI policy and approvals you need. The plan is yours to use with us, another vendor or your own team.

No. The AI readiness quiz gives an instant score from 12 questions you answer yourself. The assessment is 2 weeks of work with your team: interviews, real document samples, a review of your systems and a ranked plan with costs. Many companies take the quiz first, then book the assessment.

Yes. For larger companies we assess one business unit or a set of workflows at a time, so each plan stays specific. We work from read-only access or sample exports and sign an NDA before you share anything. Our largest reviewing client is a government agency with more than 10,000 employees.

An AI maturity assessment measures how far each team has come with AI, from first experiments to AI across the business. A readiness assessment asks what you need for the next build. Ours covers both in the same 2 weeks. Each team gets a maturity stage, and the company gets a ranked list of AI projects with costs.

Two weeks. In week 1 we interview process owners and sample real documents and tickets. In week 2 we score each idea, and at the end of week 2 we present the ranked projects and costs. Your leaders join the kickoff and the readout, and each process owner joins an interview.

You need a sponsor who sets the goals and joins the readout, and a process owner for each workflow. Add someone from IT who can grant read-only access or exports. Security or compliance should review the risk findings. On our side, people who build AI run the interviews and the scoring, so every cost comes from real builds.

You choose the first project from the ranked plan. The next step we recommend is a pilot on the top-ranked workflow, from $7,000, then a production rollout from $13,000. The $2,500 fee is credited to that first build. You can also take the plan to another vendor or your own team, because it belongs to you.

No. Finding data gaps is part of the job. We map where each workflow’s data lives, who owns it and how usable it is. Then we mark what to fix before a build and what can start now. If a gap is large, the plan may include a data readiness review, priced at $3,500.

Yes, as a first pass. The AI readiness quiz and the checklist on this page help you score data, systems, people and risk. An outside assessment adds tests on your real samples, costs from real builds and a ranked plan your leaders can fund. Use the quiz to decide whether the full assessment is worth it.

Yes. For each workflow we check the privacy, HIPAA and state AI rules that apply, and we mark where a person must approve AI output. The plan lists the AI policy and approvals you need before the first build. For a full review of one AI system, our AI risk assessment costs $6,000 fixed.
