The AI Readiness Checklist
10 questions. 5 minutes. Find out where you stand.
Why Most AI Projects Fail
Gartner estimates that 85% of enterprise AI projects never reach production. The failures tend to follow three patterns.
The strategy gap
Organisations buy AI tools before defining the problem. Six months in, nobody can explain what the project was supposed to achieve.
The data gap
Every AI system needs clean, accessible data. What most organisations have is 14 spreadsheets and a legacy CRM from 2011.
The adoption gap
The system launches with a single 45-minute webinar. Three weeks later the team has quietly reverted to the old process.
This checklist catches these gaps before you spend the budget, so you'll know exactly where you stand in about five minutes.
How it works
Each of the ten points asks you to rate your organisation as Ready, Gaps to Address, or Not Ready. There are no trick questions and no points for optimism. An honest amber is more useful than a generous green.
If you're unsure how to score a particular point, that's usually an amber. Genuine greens feel obvious.
