AI Governance & Production Readiness Assessment
"Know where you stand before scaling AI."
A focused 4-week engagement that inventories organizational AI usage, uncovers compliance and operational risks, assesses governance posture against NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001, and delivers a concrete 90-day production roadmap.
The Five Assessment Dimensions
Evaluated via stakeholder interviews, architecture audits & tooling scansAI Inventory & Shadow Usage
Evaluates executive visibility into organizational AI usage, unsanctioned employee tools, and vendor AI features.
Risk Classification & Compliance
Assesses how effectively your organization categorizes use cases by risk level, privacy impact, and regulatory exposure.
Data Foundations & Grounding
Evaluates the architecture, accessibility, security, and quality of enterprise data required for reliable AI.
Production Architecture & Controls
Measures readiness to move beyond experimentation with human-in-the-loop controls, guardrails, and secure infrastructure.
Operating Model & Telemetry
Assesses ongoing observability, drift evaluation, latency tracking, cost management, and executive accountability.
