Abstract

This study explores the novel methodology AI-Readiness and Market Dynamics Disruption Index (AIM-DDI) Framework. This framework assesses an organization's preparedness for artificial intelligence (AI) adoption and its capacity to navigate AI-driven market disruptions. AI's rapid evolution has made it a crucial driver of business transformation and competitive edge. However, organizations face challenges in understanding their AI integration readiness and potential AI-driven market disruptions. The AIM-DDI Framework evaluates an organization's internal capabilities, such as AI strategy, infrastructure, talent, imple­mentation, and ethics. Additionally, it examine­s external market dynamics like customer expectations, competitors' AI maturity, industry disruption potential, regulatory landscape, and AI tale­nt ecosystem. The AIM-DDI Framework offers valuable insights by providing a comprehensive view of an organization's position and potential strate­gic directions in the AI-driven landscape­. We will present the initial survey results validating the framework and demonstrating its practical application and effectiveness in assessing organizational AI readiness. The AIM-DDI Framework is willing to serve as a holistic toolkit for organizations to identify strengths, areas for improve­ment, and strategies to le­verage AI for sustainable competitive success.
