Congratulations on completing
the Data and AI Maturity Assessment!
You are at
You're at the beginning of your data and AI journey. Systems are disconnected, processes are manual, and data isn't driving decisions yet.
You’ve started building. Maybe you have dashboards or a data warehouse, but things are still fragmented and not standardized.
You’re doing many things right. You’ve got BI dashboards in place and some experience with AI or governance, but gaps still exist in integration, automation, or scale.
You have a mature stack, trusted dashboards, and advanced analytics. Now it’s about scale, performance, and keeping things maintainable.
You’re among the most advanced teams in your industry. AI is deeply embedded. You’re setting benchmarks, not following them.
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
Level 4
Level 5
At a maturity score of 7, your data infrastructure is likely experiencing some pain points and bottlenecks. This could be due to outdated technology, lack of scalability, or inefficient data management processes. These issues may be hindering your ability to make data-driven decisions and could potentially slow down your growth as a company.
Here’s what we recommend you do next:
Right now, your data modeling and quality is at a maturity score of 7. While this is a good start, there are some areas that need improvement. Your data may not be as reliable or trustworthy as it could be, and there may be some inconsistencies or gaps in your modeling processes.
Here's what we recommend you do next:
"Here's where you are right now"
Your current BI & Dashboards have a maturity score of 8, indicating that there may be some areas for improvement.
Here's what we recommend you do next:
Here's where you are right now:
Ideas for ML use cases have been explored, but there is still no production impact. Some notebooks have been created, but they have not been fully implemented.
Here's what we recommend you do next:
Currently, your governance score is at an 8 out of 10, which is a good start. However, there are some areas that could use improvement. For example, access control may be messy, ownership may not be clearly defined, and there may be shadow data scattered throughout your organization.
Here’s what we recommend you do next:
Write 2–3 lines describing their AI reality: lots of buzz, no deployed use cases, maybe a prototype no one uses. Keep it grounded and clear.
Here’s what we recommend you do next:
You’re probably duct-taping reports together, reacting to fires, and guessing your way through KPIs.
At this stage, velocity matters more than perfection. The challenge is building a usable foundation — without overengineering, overhiring, or overbuying.
How 5X helps:
We give you a plug-and-play data stack, ingestion, modeling, dashboards, and governance in one platform. Our experts build it with you, so you’re not stuck duct-taping metrics across tools that don’t talk to each other.
You’ve got pieces of the puzzle — a warehouse, maybe some dashboards — but it’s held together with best guesses and broken SQL. Every new request is a one-off build.
How 5X helps:
We help you consolidate the warehouse, model core business metrics, and introduce QA standards that don’t require new headcount. Your team gets answers they can trust, and you get out of the spreadsheet firefighting loop.
You’ve got dashboards, pipelines, models… but they’re not always trusted or actioned. Business teams want more, faster, and your data team’s burning out just trying to keep up.
How 5X helps:
We bring structure: tested governance frameworks, automated observability, and faster deployment paths for models and dashboards. You move from reactive support to proactive enablement without increasing your engineering footprint.
Your data team ships — but duplication, compute waste, and rogue dashboards are slowing things down. Your execs want smarter automation, but engineering cycles are stretched.
How 5X helps:
We help you clean it up by codifying logic, reducing compute spend, and building internal tools like smart alerts and AI-powered workflows. Your infra supports scale without spiraling.
You’re already running structured experiments, internal tools, and ML in prod. The question now is: how do you 10x your leverage without slowing down?
How 5X helps:
We help you co-build GenAI copilots, reusable ML modules, and internal accelerators tailored to your business DNA without duplicating work or slowing down compliance and governance.
This report is designed for teams who want to move forward, not just score themselves. It’s built to complement your existing goals, and help anchor planning discussions with your leadership team. Use it as a clear, thoughtful guide to shape priorities across data infrastructure, analytics, and AI readiness.
Share your score on LinkedIn and we’ll include your org in our upcoming 2025 Industry Benchmark Report—a comparative view of how companies at your stage and scale are evolving their data & AI capabilities.
