AI pilots fail in week two because something basic was missed in week zero — access, training, baseline data, success metrics. This checklist makes every prerequisite explicit so the pilot launches on a foundation instead of a hope.
What's inside
Pre-launch readiness check across access, training, communication, baseline measurement, and rollback plan. Sign off on every item before Day 1.
How to use it
- Walk through every item in order — skipping ahead usually means missing the prerequisite that makes a later item work.
- Score honestly. The point of a checklist is to surface gaps, not to feel good about what's already done.
- Run it again in 90 days. Checklists are a baseline; the value is in the delta between runs.
