Scoring Guide

0–6: Stage 1 – Discovery & Alignment

→ Start by assessing readiness and aligning AI use cases with strategy. Use the AI Maturity Index and Use Case Scoring Model.


7–13: Stage 2 – Governance & Investment

→ Formalize your governance structure and evaluate ethical risks. Use the AI Adoption Charter and Ethical Risk Pre-Assessment.


14–20: Stage 3 – Planning & Enablement

→ Design enablement plans by role and scope workflows across tools. Use Role-Based Enablement Maps and the AI Initiative Blueprint.


21–27: Stage 4 – Execution & Experimentation

→ Launch pilot sprints and collect performance, risk, and feedback data. Use the AI Agile Sprint Backlog and Bias Audit Checklist.


28–34: Stage 5 – Validation & Activation

→ Evaluate pilot value and make go/no-go decisions before scaling. Use the Business Value Scorecard and Ethical Go/No-Go Gate.


35–41: Stage 6 – Transition to Scale

→ Prepare for enterprise rollout with support, tracking, and training. Use the Production Readiness Checklist and Deployment Runbook.


42–48: Stage 7 – Optimization & Governance

→ Monitor AI in production and evolve governance with feedback cycles. Use the Model Drift Dashboard and Ethical Oversight Logs.


Next Step
