AI opportunity assessment
AI Opportunity Assessment
From AI Opportunity to an Architecture Decision
Start with the business change. Make the technical question concrete.
Turn a proposed AI capability into a defined architecture decision: what it needs from your systems, data and controls, and which review or design work fits.
What you receive
Find the architecture contribution that fits.
- An appropriately scoped architecture engagement where there is a fit.
- A clear statement of the decision, evidence and required contribution.
- A practical route to the relevant review, understanding or design service.
When this helps
Recognise the situation.
- A team or vendor proposes an AI capability, and you need to know what it needs from your systems and data.
- A proposed AI capability needs architecture, integration or feasibility challenge.
- You need to move from a broad opportunity discussion to a defined technical decision.
How it works
Evidence appropriate to the question.
Clarify the intended outcome
Describe the business change and the decision that must follow.
Choose the relevant contribution
Determine whether focused review, deeper discovery or solution architecture fits the question.
Agree the actual scope
Define the evidence, outputs and responsibilities for the selected package.
Scope & responsibility
Agree the scope and depth. Keep the boundaries clear.
Scope of the engagement
We agree the capability, the systems and data it touches and the decision it serves. This is not a broad AI transformation roadmap.
Limits of reliance
Commercial strategy, workforce transformation and broad opportunity discovery are outside this scope. We establish the fit before proposing architecture work.
The agreed scope of the engagement sets the coverage, deliverables, responsibilities, timing and fixed fee. Any change to the scope is agreed in writing.
Relevant experience
Read the work in its actual context.
Questions
Before you book.
Can we still discuss a proposed AI use case?
Yes. Bring the intended business outcome and technical decision. We can establish whether an architecture contribution is appropriate.

Each is available as a standalone service when the evidence and scope support it.
What's the decision in front of you?
Tell us the situation and what you intend to commit to. 25 minutes on Teams, no preparation needed. If this scope is not the right fit, we will say so.
