Understanding your AIRI result

It is a common misconception that AI adoption is only suitable for larger or technology-based organisations. On the contrary, AI Unaware and AI Aware organisations, even if they lack data, talent, or ML infrastructure, could adopt ready-made AI solutions for their core or peripheral business activities.

By identifying the weakest dimensions, the organisational capability profile enables an organisation to focus on dimensions that could significantly improve its overall AI capabilities.

Approach to improve your AI Readiness

AI, similar to other technologies, is a tool that could help organisations increase their competitiveness via higher automation (cost-saving), better product offering (revenue), or deeper analytics capabilities (insights). 

Below is a suggested approach for organisations to benefit from AIRI assessment and improve their AI readiness:

airi approach to improving 1

Determine

whether current AI capability supports organisational goals

airi approach to improving 2

Identify

which level of AI capabilities the organisation needs to be at

airi approach to improving 3

Focus

first on the weakest dimension to unlock synergy across all

AIRI Suggestion

The AIRI Suggestion is designed to provide your organisation with a more detailed understanding of how you can enhance your AI readiness, with actionable steps that you can take to achieve your goals. The fundamental premise of the AIRI Suggestion is that each organisation is at a specific stage of AI readiness, with distinct requirements and challenges to overcome.
