Evaluate your organisation’s IT capabilities across five key areas. Get a maturity score, identify gaps, and receive a prioritised roadmap for improvement.
Select the option that best describes your current IT environment across five categories. Be honest — this assessment is most useful when it reflects reality.

| 2 — Developing | 16–24 | Some structure, basic tools, growing awareness | Managed security, M365, documented policies |
| 3 — Established | 25–33 | Proactive IT, formal processes, measured SLAs | Advanced security, automation, strategic planning |
| 4 — Advanced | 34–39 | Optimised operations, aligned to business goals | Innovation, AI/ML adoption, predictive ops |
| 5 — Optimised | 40–45 | Continuous improvement, industry-leading practices | Digital transformation leadership, R&D |
