From AI experimentation to agentic transformation

Frontier organisations put AI agents to work across the business, with people setting direction and agents doing more of the operating.

The Frontier Readiness Assessment scores your organisation on the six pillars of the Frontier success framework and maps your readiness across the Microsoft AI stack, from Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio to Foundry, Fabric and Agent 365. Rate 18 statements in about six minutes. Your stage and pillar profile appear the moment you finish, before we ask for anything.

Add your work email for the full executive report: the stack map scored layer by layer, why each of your risk gates matters, and a 30/60/90-day roadmap whose actions link to the TTD services that deliver them. The report is emailed to you as a PDF you can take to leadership. The assessment is completely free.
