Instrument Process

14 days. One deliverable.Zero ambiguity.

A fixed-scope, vendor-neutral engagement designed for executive decision-makers who need clarity before committing capital.

The AI Capital Risk Instrument (ACRI) is a structured evaluation methodology that evaluates structural exposure conditions that contribute to AI Capital Risk.

Inputs

What We Collect

Structured stakeholder inputs across five capital risk dimensions. No workshops. No multi-week discovery.

  • AI governance policies, committee structures, and escalation protocols
  • Data infrastructure maturity, pipeline reliability, and access controls
  • Regulatory exposure signals, EU AI Act classification exposure inputs
  • Organizational execution indicators: team capacity, delivery cadence, stalled initiatives
  • Capital allocation history: budget committed, ROI tracking, vendor relationships

All data is collected via a secure, structured questionnaire. No unstructured interviews or subjective workshop outputs.

How Inputs Become Determination

The AI Capital Risk Instrument (ACRI) processes structured stakeholder inputs using a deterministic scoring framework.

Each input maps to control signals across five structural readiness vectors: governance, regulatory readiness, infrastructure reliability, organizational execution capability, and capital discipline.

Vector exposure thresholds and regulatory gating conditions are evaluated automatically to produce the resulting capital authorization posture.

This evaluation produces the AI Capital Risk Index score and the formal capital authorization determination used by boards and executive teams.

Instrument Integrity

Deterministic scoring: Every score, posture, and action is computed by rules. No LLM-generated text. No subjective weighting.
Versioned model: The Capital Risk Framework is version-controlled and auditable. Instrument results are reproducible.
Coverage threshold: Incomplete input data is flagged, not interpolated. Insufficient coverage constrains posture to Provisional.
Hard gating: Regulatory and governance failures can independently constrain posture regardless of aggregate score.

Quantify AI risk before capital is committed.

Board-ready instrument. Vendor-neutral. Delivered in 14 days.
