AI Transformation Framework

Our own method for AI transformation: four functional domains, a governance overlay and tools for implementation.

AI Transformation Framework

We make AI transformation measurable, prioritisable and manageable.

AI-TF is a proprietary ASW product. Companies do not invest in AI readiness in the abstract, but in information, processes, technology and organisation. That is where the framework starts, with a governance layer on top.

Domain 1 of 4With what?

Information

Is the information AI needs available, reliable, structured and usable? This covers data, documents, rules, master data and experience.

  • Availability
  • Quality
  • Structure
  • Accessibility
Domain 2 of 4How?

Process

Are workflows and decision logic clear, standardised and manageable enough to be analysed, automated or changed in a meaningful way?

  • Process definition
  • Standardisation
  • Repeatability
  • Complexity
Domain 3 of 4By what means?

Technology

Is there a technical foundation to run AI solutions in a stable, integrated, reliable and adaptable way? We assess what systems contribute, not product names.

  • Availability
  • Connectivity
  • Reliability
  • Adaptability
Domain 4 of 4Who?

Organisation

Are people, roles and responsibilities set up so the organisation can implement AI effectively and use it for the long term?

  • Enablement
  • Responsibility
  • Collaboration
  • Adaptability
Cross-cuttingUnder which rules?

Governance overlay

Governance is not a fifth domain; it sits across all four. It defines the rules under which AI is used: from the readiness check in the assessment and the classification of each use case to the governance gate in prioritisation.

  • Readiness check
  • Use case classification
  • Governance gate
  • ISO/IEC 42001 gap analysis
Assessment questionnaireGives a structured view of an organisation’s maturity across all four domains.
Operational templatesMake implementation concrete in every domain.
