Practical AI Resources
Start with the questions that matter.
Practical tools to help you evaluate AI vendors, understand your readiness, scope responsible adoption, and see where deeper work may be useful.
Readiness
SARA Mini
A lightweight introduction to the seven areas CAS examines when assessing secure AI readiness. Use it to surface strengths, gaps, and questions worth exploring more deeply.
Implementation
Scoping AI Guidance
Turn an AI idea into a better-defined initiative by clarifying the problem, intended outcome, users, data, dependencies, and organizational requirements before implementation.
Procurement
AI Vendor Assessment Checklist
Questions for looking beyond the demo to how an AI vendor handles data, security, governance, transparency, oversight, and operational risk.
Completed SARA Mini?
Bring a thoughtfully completed SARA Mini into a full SARA engagement and we may be able to reduce the discovery required at the outset. Ask us about the available assessment credit.
From questions to action
See something worth digging into?
These tools can help you identify what deserves attention. If they surface a gap, uncertainty, or decision you need help working through, bring it to us. A short conversation is often enough to determine whether the next step is a full assessment, a narrower piece of work, or no additional work right now.
