02 The framework
Scored across the six systems that make AI work
Your score measures the six operating systems that decide whether AI takes hold in a business like yours. The weakest one is usually where your first move lives, and your report names it.
-
Direction
AI strategy, vision, and which use cases come first.
-
People and Agents
Roles, skills, and adoption across your team.
-
Company Brain
The data and knowledge your AI can actually reach.
-
Guardrails
Governance, security, and policy that close down shadow AI.
-
Workflows
Process redesign and the tooling that carries it.
-
Yield
Measurement, ROI, and the operating rhythm that sustains results.
03 Real client numbers
The numbers behind the scoring
These results came from the same six-systems lens your assessment uses. Each one started with a clear read on which system to fix first.
An equipment distributor now reclaims 6 to 10 hours a week on purchase-order reviews alone.
A building automation firm cut a recurring 12-hour data task down to 1 hour.
Cohort participants report saving 3 to 8 hours per person every week with practical AI in daily work.
The misjudgment in the headline shows up in the scoring too. One recent owner self-rated 3 out of 10 and came back at 5.7, and the system behind that gap became the first move. Your report surfaces the same thing for your business: which gain is closest for you and what stands in the way.
