Is your AI initiative worth funding?
Four questions against the five-dimension framework. A full investment readiness report — dimension scores, a prioritised fix list, and an unambiguous verdict.
What's the expected annual value of this initiative, at full scale?
Revenue gain or cost reduction — if it's genuinely hard to estimate, pick "Not yet quantified."
How mature is the technology path for what you're trying to build?
Think about whether this has been done before, somewhere.
What's your data situation?
The single highest-signal input in this framework — be honest.
How disruptive would this initiative be to the people who'd use it?
Consider workflow change, retraining, and realistic resistance to adoption.
Anything else to add? (Optional)
Describe the initiative in your own words, flag a specific concern, or add anything the previous steps didn't capture.
