You do not need to be technical to audit a tech team.Every check comes with a simple way to verify the answer: a number to ask for, a document to see or a test to watch. If you do not know an answer, say so. Not knowing is one of the most useful findings.

What it checks

Six areas that decide whether your tech and AI teams are an asset or a risk.

DeliveryIs the team shipping useful work, often and predictably?
Quality & reliabilityDoes the product work, and does the team know when it does not?
Engineering foundationsCan the team change things safely, and would it survive someone leaving?
Security & dataIs company and customer data protected, and could you recover from the worst day?
AI capabilityIs the team using AI well, in the product and in how it works?
Team & leadershipIs the tech team led well, aligned with the business and able to hire?
