AI readiness review
Two weeks to learn what your Microsoft 365 tenant looks like today, which gaps block AI, and what to do first.
Short answer
The AI readiness review is a two-week, fixed-price review of your Microsoft 365 tenant that finds the governance, oversharing, licensing, and configuration gaps that block Copilot and AI, then delivers a ranked 90-day plan. It costs $12,000 to $22,000 and runs for commercial, GCC, and GCC High tenants.
Find the problems before the build does.
Government tenants often find that data loss prevention policies block Copilot retrieval, service principal permissions are incomplete, and sensitivity labels never reached the libraries AI can read. Commercial tenants often find licensing that does not enable Copilot features, Power Platform with no governance, and three to five good automation candidates with no plan.
Either way, finding these before a build saves weeks of rework. Federal reviews also include a gap review against the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, with documentation your AI governance lead and security officer can use directly.

Readiness review questions
What does the AI readiness review cover?
Two weeks across your tenant: SharePoint oversharing, Purview labels and data loss prevention, Entra ID access, Copilot and Power Platform licensing, and the workflows most worth automating, ending in a ranked 90-day plan.
What do we receive?
An executive summary for leadership, a technical report with each gap and its fix, a licensing review, and a 90-day plan with owners and effort estimates.
How is it priced and bought?
Fixed price, $12,000 to $22,000 depending on tenant size. Government buyers typically use simplified acquisition. It stands on its own with no commitment to further work.
What access do you need?
Read access to the Microsoft 365, Entra, Purview, and Power Platform admin centers. We do not need write access, and every access requirement is listed in the statement of work.
Train your team first.
Admins can audit their own tenant with guidance in the one-day governance course, a lighter-weight alternative to a full review.
Train your team on the AI you already pay for.
