The Diagnostic: AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™

  

Your vendor says the program is on track. You need an independent answer.


 The AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™ is a fixed-fee, 2-week audit identifying exactly where your governance is failing, why your vendors are not accountable to the business case, and what it will cost to fix it.

Green status reports are not the same as green programs

 

Most failing programs look fine on paper until they do not. Milestones slip. Budgets expand. Vendors point at each other. By the time leadership has enough evidence to act, the cost of recovery is three times what early intervention would have been.

The problem is rarely the technology. It is the governance layer sitting above it. When no one owns the outcome independently of the vendors delivering it, accountability disappears and the business case erodes.

The 2-week forensic audit. Fixed fee. Board-ready output.

What this is

WEEK 2: Readiness and Recovery

WEEK 1: Governance Forensics

 The AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™ is a 21-point executive audit of your program's governance, vendor accountability, financial velocity, and delivery risk. It runs in two weeks and produces three outputs your leadership team acts on immediately. 

WEEK 1: Governance Forensics

WEEK 2: Readiness and Recovery

WEEK 1: Governance Forensics

 Map the decision-making structure. Identify where accountability leaks. Audit Statements of Work against actual delivery and surface the performance gaps your status reports are not showing. 

WEEK 2: Readiness and Recovery

WEEK 2: Readiness and Recovery

WEEK 2: Readiness and Recovery

 Score the program across all 21 dimensions. Determine whether the asset is salvageable, needs structural change, or should be stopped. Deliver the full scorecard and recovery roadmap to leadership. 

What you receive: Three deliverables. All of them actionable

The AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™

The AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™

The AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™

 A scored assessment across five dimensions: governance maturity, technical execution, vendor alignment, financial velocity, and delivery risk. You see exactly where the program stands and where failures are concentrated. 

Go/No-Go Framework

The AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™

The AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™

 A formal recommendation with supporting evidence: Go (validated path to remediation), Pivot (structural change in strategy or vendor partnership), or No-Go (the evidence to stop the program before it consumes more capital). This is the document your board needs to make the decision. 

ROI Roadmap

The AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard™

ROI Roadmap

 For programs with a viable path forward, a prioritized remediation plan with the governance changes, vendor accountability mechanisms, and delivery milestones required to close the Execution Gap and protect the original business case. 

Why This Is Different

 

Standard consultants want a year-long engagement. We provide the truth in 2 weeks. We operate above the technical stack to ensure internal teams and external vendors remain accountable to the business case. 


"The Diagnostic provided the objective data we needed to reset our vendor relationship. We identified $250K in wasted spend that internal reports had missed." — VP of Operations, Financial Services 

This audit is built for high-stakes AI transformation programs

  

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

Your program has missed two or more major milestones in the last six months. You suspect vendor underperformance but do not have the audit trail to prove it. You need an outside perspective before the next board funding cycle. Your internal team is reporting green while delivery is slipping.

THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF:

You are looking for a checkbox exercise. You are not prepared to act on what the audit finds. Your program is under $5M with no plans to scale.

Fixed fee. No surprises. Credit if you advance to The Build service

 

Fixed fee, based on program complexity. Scope is confirmed before the engagement begins. Delivered in 10 business days.

For organizations not ready for a full retainer, the Diagnostic is the right entry point. It answers the question your leadership team is asking before you commit to ongoing governance support.

Start with the truth about where your program stands

 A 30-minute call is enough to determine whether the Diagnostic is the right fit. No pitch, no deck. A direct conversation about what is not working and whether a 2-week audit gives you the clarity to act.

Because strategy is a theory. Delivery is the reality.
