Where does your AI program actually stand?
Most AI maturity questionnaires give you a colour-coded dashboard and a marketing email. This one gives you a clear maturity profile across nine production-relevant dimensions, a written insight per dimension, and a board-ready PDF you can bring to the next steering committee.
Why take it
Three things you walk away with
01
See exactly where you are
A clear maturity profile across nine dimensions — not a vague "you're emerging" verdict. Each dimension gets a level (None / Ad hoc / Established / Advanced) and a written reason.
02
Know what to do next
Every dimension comes with a specific next move — what to fix first, why, and what "good" looks like at the next level. Not a generic best-practices list.
03
Make the case internally
A board-ready PDF report you can drop into the next AI steering committee. Bring the conversation up from 'we should do AI' to 'here's the gap and the plan'.
What you'll be asked
Nine production-relevant dimensions
The dimensions are chosen because they are where AI programs actually fail in production — not because they sound good in a maturity model paper.
Security
Runtime protection, prompt injection defence, supply chain
Governance
Policy framework, decision rights, audit trails
Observability
Traces, cost attribution, quality scoring
Data
Retrieval infrastructure, embeddings, RAG production
Development
Engineering practices, evals, release process
Operations
Incident response, on-call, change management
Value & ROI
Outcome metrics, business case, attribution
Risk & Compliance
NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, sector regulation
Adoption & Change
Internal capability, training, change muscle

Question
How does your organisation protect AI systems from threats?
The goal: defences against prompt injection, jailbreak, and supply-chain compromise that hold up under adversarial pressure.
Insight · Next move
Consolidate fragmented protection
Per-application guardrails fragment as adoption scales — every team writes their own, and security posture varies widely across the org. The next step is consolidating onto a shared layer that gives security one place to set policy while application teams continue to ship independently.
You receive one of these pages for each of the nine dimensions you complete. Plus a cover page, an executive summary, and a top-gaps section to take to the next steering committee.
Who it's for
AI leaders who need a structured baseline
AI program leads, CIOs, CISOs, Heads of AI, and transformation directors who need a structured baseline before they argue for investment, scope a roadmap, or report progress to a board.
Use it before you
- Pitch the next AI investment to the executive committee
- Scope a roadmap with a delivery partner
- Report AI progress to the board
- Stand up an AI Council or governance framework
