AI/Data Maturity Assessment & Strategic Roadmap
Map where you are on the data and AI maturity curve, understand your strategic initiatives for the next 1-5 years, and build a practical roadmap that shows exactly how AI can accelerate your commercial ambitions.
TL;DR
- →What: Maturity assessment + strategic initiative discovery + AI-enabled roadmap that connects technology to business outcomes
- →Impact: Know where you stand, what's possible, and which AI investments will actually move the needle on your 1-5 year goals
- →Timeline: 3-4 weeks from kickoff to final roadmap presentation with leadership team
Connect AI Strategy to Business Strategy
Most AI assessments evaluate your technology stack and stop there. But technology without a clear line to business outcomes is just expensive infrastructure.
This assessment is different. We start by understanding your strategic business initiatives for the next 1-5 years—revenue growth targets, margin expansion plans, operational efficiency goals, new market entry, etc.
Then we assess where you are on the data and AI maturity curve, identify the gaps between current capabilities and what you need, and build a roadmap that shows exactly which AI investments will accelerate your business strategy.
What You'll Get
- Data and AI maturity scorecard across 5 dimensions: data, people, process, technology, governance
- Strategic initiative mapping—what you're trying to achieve in the next 1-5 years
- Gap analysis: capabilities you have vs. what you need
- AI opportunity assessment—where can AI accelerate your strategic initiatives?
- Prioritized roadmap linking AI investments to business outcomes
- Build vs. buy recommendations with ROI rationale
The Assessment Framework
Strategic Business Initiatives (1-5 Years)
We start here—not with technology. What are you trying to achieve? Revenue growth? Margin expansion? Market entry? New capabilities? This frames everything else.
Key Questions:
- •What are your top 3-5 strategic priorities for the next 1-5 years?
- •Where do you need to move faster than you currently can?
- •What decisions are you making on incomplete information?
- •Where is manual work constraining growth or speed?
Data & AI Maturity Assessment
Where are you on the maturity curve? We evaluate across 4 dimensions: people (skills, org structure), process (workflows, decision-making), technology (infrastructure, tools), and governance (policies, risk management).
Key Questions:
- •Do you have the data infrastructure to support AI use cases?
- •What's your current data quality and accessibility?
- •Do you have the talent and organizational structure?
- •Are there governance frameworks in place?
AI Opportunity Mapping
Which of your strategic initiatives can AI accelerate? We map AI capabilities (generative AI, predictive analytics, automation, etc.) to your business goals and identify where the ROI is highest.
Key Questions:
- •Which initiatives would benefit from better predictions or faster insights?
- •Where can automation free up capacity for strategic work?
- •What decisions would improve with real-time data?
- •Are there quick wins that prove value before larger investments?
Gap Analysis & Roadmap
What capabilities do you need vs. what you have? We identify the gaps, prioritize based on business impact and feasibility, and build a sequenced roadmap with clear build/buy/partner recommendations.
Key Questions:
- •What's missing between current state and what you need?
- •Which gaps are blockers vs. nice-to-haves?
- •Should you build, buy, or partner for each capability?
- •What's the right sequence—quick wins first or foundations first?
