“AI doesn’t create your data problems, it exposes them. Many organisations have moved from a server in a cupboard to data spread across SharePoint, Teams and OneDrive, but without the same clarity over access, sensitivity or ownership. If businesses want to adopt AI with confidence, they first need to understand and control the data it will interact with.”

Questions about the AI Readiness Assessment

Answers for organisations comparing options or scoping their next step into AI.

What is included in an AI Readiness Assessment?

Your assessment includes stakeholder interviews, a review of your Microsoft 365 environment, analysis of the governance and security controls that affect AI use, and a prioritised AI Action Plan for next steps.

How does an AI Readiness Assessment reduce risk?

It shows where permissions, data handling, retention, third-party access, or security settings could create avoidable exposure before AI is rolled out more widely.

Which organisations is this for?

It is designed for organisations considering Microsoft 365 Copilot or broader AI adoption that want a clearer view of readiness before committing to rollout, licences, or training at scale.

When should you do an AI Readiness Assessment?

The right time is before wider rollout. If you are exploring AI seriously, thinking about Copilot, or already seeing informal AI use across the business, the assessment gives you a more secure starting point.

What happens after the assessment is complete?

You receive a structured AI Action Plan covering remediation, pilot planning, governance, and adoption next steps.

Why not start with licences first?

Licences alone do not solve for governance, permissions, data quality, or user confidence. Starting with readiness gives you a better chance of safer adoption, stronger outputs, and clearer business value.
