AI readiness is not a trophy score. It helps identify the next condition a particular workflow is missing.

Strong company-wide technology controls do not guarantee that a team's inputs, rules, or approval authority are clear.

Replace a vague maturity label with a specific blocker, the evidence needed to resolve it, and a responsible person.

Review that action card when the workflow adds users, confidential information, or the ability to perform real actions.

Use assessment to choose the next practical improvement. A changed scope needs a fresh readiness check, not an old badge.
