It is also based on an international survey of 1,600 decision-makers from various sectors.
Adoption and Strategy
The GenAI Maturity Assessment from SAS consists of a series of multiple-choice questions about data management, governance, and integration of generative AI. Based on the answers, the tool classifies organizations as ‘Observer’, ‘Explorer’, or ‘Leader’. This classification shows how an organization compares to other companies worldwide. The results are accompanied by a report with insights and concrete recommendations for a more structured approach to GenAI.
