Technical showcase of the SCALE FACTOR™ scoring framework - a proprietary system for measuring AI infrastructure readiness across 7 critical dimensions.
SCALE FACTOR™ is a diagnostic framework that evaluates organizations' ability to scale with AI infrastructure. It measures readiness across five key dimensions:
- Systems Coherence - Integration and alignment of AI tools
- Customer Experience Integrity - Maintaining quality during growth
- AI Strategy Alignment - Systematic approach to AI adoption
- Leadership Infrastructure - Organizational structure for AI delivery
- Enterprise Readiness - Financial and operational scaling capacity
The assessment flow:
- User Type Selection → Portfolio Manager or Founder/Executive
- 7 Strategic Questions → Covering all SCALE dimensions
- Real-time Scoring → Calculate SCALE FACTOR™ (1.0-3.0)
- Zone Classification → Break Risk / Unstable / Enterprise-Ready
- Risk Assessment → Calculate potential infrastructure failure costs
- Action Plan → Immediate and strategic recommendations
| SCALE FACTOR™ | Zone | Risk Level | What It Means |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.0 - 1.4 | 🚨 Break Risk | Critical | Infrastructure gaps threaten scaling ability |
| 1.5 - 2.4 | Moderate | Growth possible with optimization | |
| 2.5 - 3.0 | ✅ Enterprise-Ready | Low | Prepared for aggressive scaling |
