Successful bespoke systems are built on a deep understanding of user needs and use cases. The same applies to AI. It requires the right data and a clear strategy to make adoption both effective and efficient. That’s why we’ve developed our quick, insightful AI Readiness Assessment.

Whether you're already experimenting with AI tools, planning your first steps, or still sceptical about its value, this quiz is designed to help you identify where your business stands and what steps you should take next to support and evaluate the potential of AI in your systems development.

Why AI readiness matters

AI isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. It's a capability that needs clean data, flexible systems, and a forward-thinking approach to be effective. Depending on your current systems and goals, AI might offer huge productivity gains, cost savings, or better insights, but only if you're ready. It might be that before you look at any AI solutions, you need to align or migrate systems or fix issues in legacy technology.

Companies are at risk of jumping in too fast and finding that their efforts are blocked by outdated systems, disconnected teams, or unclear business cases.

Being AI-ready means more than having an interest in emerging tech or wanting cost savings. 

It means knowing how and when to integrate AI into your current bespoke software architecture:

• Understanding the data you have (and the data you need)
• Understanding your existing systems and any limitations 
• Knowing how AI can enhance bespoke development 
• Having cross-functional buy-in and realistic timelines
• Balancing innovation with risk management

AI in action - Real business impact

The reality is clear, AI is not just transforming customer interaction, it’s reshaping how businesses manage their systems, create bespoke software, make decisions, drive efficiency and gain a competitive advantage.

According to Gartner, by 2026, over 80% of enterprises will have used generative AI APIs or deployed generative AI-enabled applications in production environments.

McKinsey reports that businesses using AI for customer operations can reduce customer service costs by up to 30% while increasing satisfaction.

AI-powered automation is expected to contribute up to $15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030 (PwC).

72% of business leaders say AI and machine learning are critical to their future business success (Statista, 2024).
