Enterprise Technology MaturityA clear baseline.
A clear baseline.
A better investment path.
Assess enterprise technology maturity across architecture, applications, integration, data, operating practices and governance. Use an evidence-based baseline to sequence improvements and investment.
The business priority
How ready is the technology landscape for the business plan?
Maturity scores alone do not explain the next decision. A useful assessment states the evidence, the target needed for the business ambition and the dependencies between improvements.
Access to current architecture, application inventories, operating records and business priorities.

Specific work.
Useful outputs.
Agree the scope, dependencies and responsibilities before work begins. Each workstream produces a defined output.
Establish the baseline
Review systems, documentation, operating evidence and stakeholder perspectives. Distinguish confirmed findings from assumptions.

Define the target and gaps
Set the target capability needed for the business plan. Identify gaps, prerequisites, risk and capability constraints.
OutputTarget-state and gap assessment
Prioritise the roadmap
Sequence improvements against business value, effort, dependencies and delivery capacity. Define checkpoints for reassessment.

Implementation strategySequence the work.
Sequence the work.
Make the gates clear.
An indicative delivery route. Sequencing and timing follow the scope, dependencies and business readiness. The stages below define the evidence needed to proceed.
| Stage | Practical work | Decision gate | Accountable roles |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01Frame | Agree domains and decision criteria. | Model accepted | Business + CIO |
| 02Assess | Gather and validate evidence. | Baseline reviewed | Domain owners |
| 03Target | Define required future capability. | Target agreed | Business sponsor |
| 04Sequence | Prioritise improvements and dependencies. | Roadmap approved | Portfolio forum |
| 05Reassess | Review evidence after agreed changes. | Baseline updated | Domain owners |
