Self-guided worksheet. This reading edition provides questions and evidence criteria. It does not calculate a score, produce a radar chart, compare peers, save answers, email results or generate a PDF.

Use maturity as a set of evidence questions about one workflow. A team can be strong in one dimension and weak in another; no single score establishes readiness.

How to use it

Choose one workflow. For each question, record the answer, source, owner, date, gap and next check in your team’s document. Use “unknown” when the evidence is absent. Repeat after a material workflow change to compare your own records.

Aware and experimenting

Can you name a useful workflow and distinguish a hypothesis from observed demand?

Evidence to collect: The affected user, current problem and the result the user would accept.

Deployed

Can you identify which jobs actually ran and what happened?

Evidence to collect: Execution records, versions, source coverage, exclusions and unresolved failures.

Reliable

Can you reproduce a failure and show that a correction addresses it?

Evidence to collect: Versioned expectations, counterexamples, realistic environments and matched tests.

Governed

Can an owner explain permissions, policy decisions and unresolved evidence gaps?

Evidence to collect: Action authority, decision history, exception handling and review cadence.

Adaptive

Can you assess a new model or tool without discarding the checks you learned?

Evidence to collect: Reusable evaluations, comparable starting state, change history and outcome evidence.

Turn the gaps into a bounded next step

Start with the most consequential unresolved job. Agree what would establish a better result, test the correction, and retain the source and outcome limits.
