Turn the result into an evidence backlog, not a presentation about the score. Assign each missing item an owner, a due date and a decision it blocks.
Use this result sheet:
| Field | Your entry |
|---|---|
| Assessed workflow, entities and exclusions | … |
| Assessment date and rubric version | … |
| Raw score and band | … / 45; … |
| Mandatory gates passed or failed | … |
| Five domain scores | … / 9; … / 9; … / 9; … / 9; … / 9 |
| Three most consequential evidence gaps | … |
| Next permitted buying activity | … |
| Accountable owners and review date | … |
For each question, retain the selected option and a reference to its supporting evidence. When the score changes, record what changed—not merely the new total.
Suggested next working session: agree the failed-gate actions, inspect one representative migration sample, review one restricted-evidence scenario and reconcile the largest unknown cost items. This is a working agenda, not an implementation-duration estimate.
If an incumbent renewal is approaching, assess retain, repair and replace options in parallel. Do not interpret a low readiness score as a requirement to buy, or a high score as proof that replacement is preferable.
