Strategic Advisory
AI Capability Diagnostic
A structured 2-week engagement that starts with your mission, maps the AI capabilities that could amplify it, and delivers a concrete plan to make it happen.
Most organizations are using AI to go faster. The opportunity is to go further.
AI didn't just change how work gets done. It changed what's possible. Programs that would have taken years can launch in months. Insights that required teams of analysts can surface in minutes. Reach that demanded massive budgets is suddenly accessible to organizations of any size.
The question isn't whether to use AI. It's whether your organization is positioned to use it for something that actually matters — to expand your mission, not just streamline your operations.
The AI Capability Diagnostic starts with that question: what would you do if the constraints you've been working around suddenly disappeared? Then we assess whether your seven core capabilities are aligned to pursue it.
Seven capabilities we assess
Intelligence Infrastructure
Do you have the data, tools, and pipelines to make AI useful? Or are you buying hammers without nails?
Human-AI Workflow Integration
Where are humans doing work that AI should handle? Where is AI being forced into workflows that need human judgment?
Knowledge Sovereignty
Who owns your institutional knowledge? Is it in people's heads, locked in vendor platforms, or structured and accessible?
Decision Architecture
How do decisions flow? Where are the bottlenecks? Which decisions could be augmented or automated?
Security & Governance
What is your threat model for AI? Data leakage, hallucination risk, regulatory compliance, access control.
Talent & Culture Readiness
Does your team see AI as a threat or a tool? What skills gaps exist? What is the adoption curve?
Strategic Alignment
Does your AI strategy serve your business strategy, or is it a separate initiative? How do you measure ROI?
