AI Readiness Evaluation & Strategy
A pragmatic, executive-level framework to identify, score, and launch high-impact AI initiatives. Powered by a guided AI voice agent for rapid stakeholder discovery and an evidence-based prioritization model. Looking for services? Explore Consulting Services or view Project Outcomes.
Why AI Readiness Matters
Many organizations chase AI pilots without aligning to measurable value, resulting in stalled prototypes and sunk cost. A structured readiness evaluation reduces risk by validating strategic alignment, data sufficiency, workflow maturity, and change management capacity before you invest heavily. If you are still mapping initial opportunities, start with the readiness scoring framework before committing to large platform projects.
Voice-Agent Discovery Layer
Instead of weeks of manual interviews, a secure AI voice agent conducts semi‑structured stakeholder conversations (scheduled with consent), produces transcripts, extracts entities (systems, metrics, tasks), and groups pain points into candidate use cases. Human review ensures context and nuance are preserved—automation accelerates, it does not replace judgment.
- Interview templates tuned for operations, finance, clinical, product & customer success teams
- Automatic redaction of PHI / sensitive identifiers in transcripts
- LLM synthesis: tasks → friction → potential automation / augmentation patterns
- Quantification prompts capture frequency, volume, cycle time, error rate baselines
Scoring & Prioritization Model
Each opportunity is scored across six dimensions and plotted to create a balanced roadmap that blends fast wins with strategic foundation work.
Supports top OKRs or margin / compliance targets.
Modeled ROI via time saved, error reduction, revenue uplift.
Availability, cleanliness, access control maturity.
PHI / PII exposure, auditability, governance surface.
APIs, legacy constraints, orchestration needs.
Estimated pilot cycle and adoption friction.
Phased Roadmap (30 / 60 / 180)
A focused cadence ensures early credibility while building scalable foundations.
- 30 Days – Pilot Definition & Infrastructure: Finalize pilot use case, baseline KPIs, secure data access, implement governance guardrails, stand up observability.
- 60 Days – Pilot Execution & Validation: Build / integrate model or automation, embed into workflow, measure delta, collect user feedback, refine prompts & guardrails.
- 180 Days – Scale & Operationalization: Extend to adjacent processes, automate monitoring, establish retraining cadence, embed change management & enablement program.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do we need internal data science resources?
No. The framework meets you where you are. We can leverage managed model APIs initially and layer in more advanced MLOps later if justified.
Is the voice agent secure?
Interviews are encrypted in transit, transcripts are redacted for PHI/PII patterns, and you retain ownership of all captured data.
What industries benefit most?
Healthcare, SaaS, professional services, and operationally intensive mid‑market organizations see rapid ROI due to workflow and documentation complexity.
Can you help execute after the roadmap?
Yes—fractional leadership or targeted implementation engagements are available to ensure pilots convert into durable capability.
