Organisational Readiness

https://taxonomy.eticas.ai/risk/organisational-readiness

Maturity: emerging

The risk that an AI system fails to deliver value not because of model performance issues but because it does not fit the organisational, technical, or human context into which it is deployed. This includes insufficient organisational capacity to absorb the technology, workflow incompatibility, interoperability failures with existing systems, and lack of sustainable maintenance capability.

This category is emerging. Assessment methods are still being developed. Definitions and subcategories may evolve.

Also known as: Integration Readiness · Deployment Readiness · Sociotechnical Fit

System type: ADM and LLM systems
Lifecycle stages: Pre Processing, Post Processing

Mappings to external frameworks

Status. Each mapping shows what it rests on. Reviewed means a reviewer has confirmed the mapping against the concept’s current definition and the framework edition the taxonomy currently references; when the only confirmation is that of the person who wrote the mapping, it reads Reviewed (author’s confirmation). Outdated means it was reviewed, but the concept’s definition has changed since, so the review has to be repeated. The other statuses mean that no review has been recorded yet. Inherited mappings have been in the taxonomy since before v5.7.0 and are unchanged. They carry no record of who made them or how, and some were checked by hand when the taxonomy first published its mappings. Agent-proposed mappings come from a review carried out by AI agents, which read the framework’s text and the concept’s definition and agreed on the relation; no person has confirmed them yet. Provisional mappings were made without access to the framework’s text. Unreviewed mappings are older mappings whose target or relation was revised in v5.7.0, and any other mapping without a review. Mappings to a superseded edition of a framework are not shown: where the provision continues, they are carried to the current edition. Mappings a review has changed or rejected are not shown.
