The AI Readiness Score: Are You Ready to Implement AI in Your Business?
Published on October 5, 2025
Every organization talks about AI adoption, but the real question is: are you ready? Jumping into AI without preparation often leads to wasted resources and failed initiatives. That’s why assessing your **AI readiness** is critical before making investments.
What Does AI Readiness Mean?
AI readiness is your organization’s ability to successfully adopt, govern, and scale AI. It’s not about having the latest tools — it’s about whether your strategy, people, processes, and data can support sustainable AI integration.
The 5 Pillars of AI Readiness
1. Strategy
Do you have clear business objectives tied to AI adoption?
2. People & Skills
Are your teams digitally literate, trained, and motivated to use AI responsibly?
3. Data
Do you have accessible, high-quality, and well-governed data?
4. Governance
Do you have policies, oversight, and compliance structures in place (e.g., EU AI Act[1])?
5. Culture
Does your organization embrace change and encourage innovation safely?
Why It Matters
Businesses that assess readiness avoid the trap of “AI for AI’s sake.” Instead, they adopt AI responsibly, with measurable results. Organizations that skip this step risk being part of the **70% of failed AI projects[2]**.
How to Get Started
Assessing your readiness doesn’t have to be complex. Start with a structured questionnaire, get a clear score, and use it to build your roadmap. That’s exactly what the AI Readiness Assessment provides.
