AI-READY NETWORK ASSESSMENT
Clear insight. Confident execution.
Is your infrastructure
ready for AI?
As organizations begin adopting AI-powered tools like Copilot, Azure AI and real-time analytics, many find their networks aren’t prepared to handle the demands. From bandwidth constraints to security vulnerabilities, infrastructure challenges can delay—or derail—transformation.
Threadfin’s AI-Ready Network Assessment is a focused, fixed-scope engagement designed to eliminate uncertainty. In just 20 business days, we help IT and infrastructure leaders assess readiness, identify potential roadblocks and map a clear path forward.
It’s structured for speed, built for action and ready when you are.
ASSESSMENT SCOPE
We focus on 4 critical areas tied directly to AI readiness:
AI Use Case Alignment & Organizational Readiness
We start by understanding what you’re working toward.
- Clarify strategic goals for AI (e.g., Copilot, automation, IoT integration)
- Evaluate change management readiness (user adoption, communication, training)
- Identify roadblocks like resource constraints, misalignment or unclear scope
This ensures that technical readiness is mapped to actual business priorities.
Network Architecture & AI Traffic Path Analysis
Next, we assess your infrastructure’s ability to handle real-time, AI-driven demands.
- Evaluate core, WAN and wireless layers (switches, APs, controllers, etc.)
- Analyze east-west traffic flow and bandwidth efficiency
- Review segmentation, firewall posture, NAC and device onboarding
- Assess redundancy, failover and hybrid cloud connectivity (Azure, AWS, SD-WAN)
This helps pinpoint bottlenecks that could limit AI performance or scalability.
Security, Data & Compliance Readiness
AI workloads introduce new threats—and new compliance requirements.
- Assess policy enforcement, threat prevention and segmentation strategies
- Evaluate data access controls across M365 and internal systems (e.g., Purview, AIP, DLP)
- Identify vulnerabilities in how data moves across your network
- Evaluate support for dynamic policies that adapt to AI data queries in real time
- Flag any compliance risks tied to HIPAA, PCI, NIST or other frameworks
We focus on both technical controls and the data pathways AI will rely on.
AI Readiness Scorecard & Roadmap
Finally, we deliver a clear picture of where you are—and what comes next.
- AI Readiness Score across infrastructure, security, data and compliance
- Prioritized roadmap with short-term wins, mid-term initiatives and long-term plans
- Strategic recommendations for next-phase actions (e.g., SD-WAN, Purview, redesigns)
