Executive summary

A maturity diagnostic that answers who is accountable for each AI system and its outcomes, and whether that accountability holds up in practice. It turns the answer into scored capability dimensions and a sequenced list of gaps to close.

What is inside

What this asset covers

The asset sets out a repeatable assessment method with written formulas, an anchored scoring rubric with evidence caps, and outcome measures for ownership coverage, exception backlog and review discipline. It compares accountability operating models and keeps cash cost separate from staff capacity. It also provides role-based execution, governance and measurement tables, a dated summary of the EU AI Act timeline changes, a synthetic worked case with a failure case, a calibration exercise, and editable registers and logs.
