How the scorecard is applied

A pragmatic sequence to move from scattered AI ideas and pilots to a coherent, value‑tracked portfolio.

1. Map use cases

Catalogue existing and proposed AI use cases, including goals, stakeholders, and current status across the organization.

2. Score & prioritize

Apply the scorecard to each use case, scoring potential value, feasibility, risk, and strategic relevance to build a ranked portfolio.

3. Track impact

Define baselines, KPIs, and reporting rhythms so you can track realized value over time and adjust the portfolio as you learn.
