Using the AI Maturity Assessment

  • Updated

The AI Maturity Assessment in RexCommand helps you evaluate and track your organization’s progress in building a responsible AI Governance program. It provides a clear, stage-based roadmap and a checklist of tasks that guide you through the steps of establishing, improving, and optimizing your AI governance practices.

Purpose of the AI Maturity Assessment

The AI Maturity tool is designed to:

  • Help you understand where your organization currently sits on the AI governance maturity curve.

  • Provide visibility into what has already been accomplished and what remains.

  • Serve as a guide by presenting the next recommended practices to implement.

  • Keep all stakeholders aligned by offering a shared, measurable framework.

It complements the rest of the platform by highlighting the governance gaps and pointing you to the modules (like Inventory, Risk Management, Policies) where you can take specific actions.

How the Tool Works

The assessment is organized into five stages of maturity, each representing a level of AI governance sophistication:

  1. Initial / Unaware – AI adoption is informal and lacks safeguards.

  2. Reactive / Foundational – Basic awareness and initial controls.

  3. Defined / Risk-Aware – Formal governance structures begin to take shape.

  4. Integrated / Proactive – Governance practices are embedded into business processes.

  5. Resilient / Optimized – Advanced, future-proof, and self-improving AI governance.

Within each stage, you’ll find a checklist of tasks that exemplify the practices expected at that level. As you complete each task in your real-world governance program, you can check it off in the app to record your progress.

Checking Off Tasks

When you begin performing a specific practice — such as maintaining an AI inventory, conducting risk assessments, or implementing oversight mechanisms — return to the AI Maturity page and mark the corresponding task as complete.

You can also:

  • Add notes to each item to record context, decisions, or evidence of completion.

  • Collapse or expand stages for a clearer focus on your current level.

  • Monitor your progress through the progress bar, which reflects both the number of tasks completed and your current maturity stage.

Why Use This Tool?

The AI Maturity Assessment helps you:

  • Stay on track by knowing exactly what steps to take next.

  • Demonstrate progress to leadership and stakeholders.

  • Identify gaps early and prioritize improvements.

  • Align your activities with best practices for responsible and compliant AI.

Tips for Success

  • Review the assessment regularly and use it as a guide during governance planning sessions.

  • Use the links to other modules (e.g., Inventory, Risk Management, Policies) to execute the specific tasks noted in the checklist.

  • Make use of the notes section to keep a record of how each task was addressed.

  • Aim to progress to higher stages by systematically addressing remaining tasks.

By consistently checking off tasks as you implement them, the AI Maturity Assessment gives you a clear, measurable, and collaborative way to grow your AI governance program responsibly and effectively.
