# Knowledge readiness report

Template id: `knowledge-readiness-report`
Responsible skill: `knowledge-management:knowledge-readiness-assessment`

Use this report to give a sponsor an evidence-based view of how ready the knowledge estate is for Copilot and agents,
domain by domain, and what must change. Rate only what the evidence shows; a dimension without evidence is recorded as
"not assessed", never as a pass. Every fact the organisation must supply is marked `[To confirm: ...]`. Example content
is fictional and is there to be replaced or deleted.

## 1. Assessment details

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Scope (business units, domains) | [To confirm: scope] |
| AI uses this assessment informs | [To confirm: Copilot rollout wave, named agents, or both] |
| Decision the report supports | [To confirm: go or no-go, funding, wave sequencing] |
| Sponsor (role) | [To confirm: role] |
| Assessors (roles) | [To confirm: roles] |
| Fieldwork dates | [To confirm: dates] |
| Previous assessment | [To confirm: none, or reference and date] |
| Repeat date agreed | [To confirm: date] |

## 2. Summary for the sponsor

| Domain | AI uses depending on it | Verdict (ready, ready with conditions, not ready) | Main reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| HR policy (fictional example) | Absence policy agent; Copilot HR scenarios | Ready with conditions | Two competing versions of the absence policy; owner agreed to archive one |
| [To confirm: domain] | [To confirm: uses] | [To confirm: verdict] | [To confirm: reason] |

Overall position: [To confirm: one paragraph; the estate verdict is never better than the verdicts of the domains the planned AI uses depend on]

## 3. Ratings by domain

Rate 1 (not ready) to 4 (ready). Cite the evidence reference for every rating.

| Domain | Ownership | Currency | Authority | Findability and structure | Permissions | Classification | Lifecycle | Evidence refs |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| [To confirm: domain] | [To confirm: 1-4] | [To confirm: 1-4] | [To confirm: 1-4] | [To confirm: 1-4] | [To confirm: 1-4] | [To confirm: 1-4] | [To confirm: 1-4] | [To confirm: refs] |

Verdict rules: ready (no dimension below 3); ready with conditions (no 1s, every condition owned and dated); not ready
(a 1 on ownership or permissions, or two or more 1s elsewhere).

## 4. Evidence log

| Ref | Evidence (report, sample, hand-checked question, owner interview) | Domain | Dimension | What it showed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| E1 | [To confirm: evidence] | [To confirm: domain] | [To confirm: dimension] | [To confirm: finding] |

Roles interviewed (roles only, never names): [To confirm: roles]

## 5. Systemic findings

The three to five findings that explain most low ratings.

| Ref | Finding | Domains affected | Consequence for AI answers |
|---|---|---|---|
| S1 | [To confirm: finding] | [To confirm: domains] | [To confirm: consequence] |

## 6. Blind spots

| Not assessed | Why | Effect on confidence |
|---|---|---|
| [To confirm: for example personal drives, connector sources, third-party systems] | [To confirm: reason] | [To confirm: effect] |

## 7. Remediation plan

| Action | Timing (before wave, alongside adoption, longer term) | Owning role | Skill that carries it out | Due |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [To confirm: action] | [To confirm: timing] | [To confirm: role] | [To confirm: for example knowledge clean-up, owner model, site design] | [To confirm: date] |

## 8. Referrals

| Finding | Referred to | Risk tier | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| [To confirm: oversharing or personal data finding] | [To confirm: security and privacy reviewer] | [To confirm: tier] | [To confirm: status] |

## 9. Baseline measures

| Measure | Baseline | Target | Owner (role) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Share of in-scope domains rated ready | [To confirm: value] | [To confirm: target] | [To confirm: role] |
| Share of AI-dependent sources with an accepted owner | [To confirm: value] | [To confirm: target] | [To confirm: role] |
| Share of sampled questions with one authoritative answer | [To confirm: value] | [To confirm: target] | [To confirm: role] |

## 10. Sign-off

| Role | Name | Date |
|---|---|---|
| Knowledge Manager | [To confirm: name] | [To confirm: date] |
| Sponsor | [To confirm: name] | [To confirm: date] |
| Security and privacy reviewer (from risk tier 2) | [To confirm: name] | [To confirm: date] |
