AI READINESS ASSESSMENT

Too many AI projects in Italian SMEs stall before delivering real value.

Up to 87% of data‑science/AI initiatives never reach production. Common pitfalls—unclear goals, technology chosen before objectives, misaligned investments, and unchanged processes—lead to wasted time and budget and demotivated teams. QualiValue’s AI Readiness Assessment flips the perspective: we start from concrete business goals and deliver a simple, actionable plan.

Strengths & Critical Gaps

Strengths

  • Executive buy-in is strong, with clear mandate for AI exploration.
  • Existing cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure) is AI-ready.

  • Lack of internal AI expertise to manage and scale projects.
  • No defined success metrics or monitoring for pilot projects.

Recommendation

Focus on People & Process to bridge the gap. Start with a low-risk, high-impact pilot project like an internal GenAI FAQ to build expertise and define governance.
