Assessments

A focused, expert-led diagnostic that establishes where you stand, whether the question is readiness, risk, or where to invest next.

Situations

You're a provider, payer, health tech, or life sciences organization whose board or executive team is asking about agentic AI, and you need a grounded view of where you stand before committing budget.

You have more proposals and commitments than budget, and no defensible way to decide where to invest, consolidate, or cut.

You're unsure whether your governance and compliance posture can support agentic workloads that touch patient data, or what it would take to get there.

Outcomes we drive

A current-state view of where you stand, drawn from your documentation and your own stakeholders.
A prioritized view of where to invest, across new opportunities and the commitments you already carry, with the reasoning behind each call.
Concrete recommendations on what to do next, presented to your leadership team.

Engagement model

Kickoff and discovery

We start with a kickoff to agree on objectives and identify the right stakeholders. Then we review your documentation and any prior AI work.

Stakeholder interviews

We interview the people closest to the problem. The interviews surface the concerns and priorities that don't come up in status meetings, and they're non-attributional: the report presents what we heard without tying comments to individuals.

Report and recommendations

We turn what we've learned into a written report with prioritized recommendations, then close with a presentation to your leadership team and stay for the hard questions.

Frequently asked questions

How long does an assessment take?

One to two weeks once interviews are on the calendar. Scheduling stakeholders usually sets the pace, so lining them up early shortens the timeline.

What do we get at the end?

A written report covering where you stand, the gaps and risks that matter, and what to do next, plus a presentation to your leadership team. In healthcare, the risk work tends to center on PHI exposure in vendor tools, human oversight of agents in clinical workflows, and audit readiness.

Can an assessment cover a vendor or platform decision?

Yes. We define the evaluation criteria with your stakeholders, assess each candidate against them, and deliver a weighted scorecard with a recommendation you can take to the board and procurement.

You're an AWS partner. How independent are your assessments?

Our Accelerator is built on AWS, and we’re open about that. When an assessment weighs vendors or platforms, the scorecard shows how each candidate scored against criteria your stakeholders defined, so you can inspect the reasoning rather than take our word for it. If AWS or one of our partner firms is part of an evaluation, we disclose the relationship up front.

Does the assessment always lead into the Accelerator?

No, and that independence is part of the value. Some assessments conclude with a recommendation to proceed with the Practical AI Accelerator. Others conclude with a recommendation you can execute on your own, or a finding that an initiative isn’t worth pursuing. Either way, you’ll have what you need to make the decision.
