SIMA360™ was created after witnessing too many organizations make costly, avoidable mistakes with AI implementation. We exist to ensure your organization doesn't become the next cautionary tale.
Organizations worldwide are rushing into AI without proper governance, leading to spectacular failures
The Vision: Sift through thousands of resumes, identify top talent, and accelerate recruitment with machine precision.
The Reality: The AI consistently ranked male candidates higher, penalized terms like "women's chess club captain," and discriminated against graduates from all-women colleges.
The Root Cause: Training on ten years of biased historical data with no guardrails, bias mitigation techniques, fairness audits, or data diversity reviews. Too much trust in AI algorithms with little governance.
The Vision: Autopilot to drive cars more safely and easily than a human could.
The Reality: Multiple high-profile crashes where Autopilot failed to detect stationary vehicles, misread road markings, and struggled with unpredictable conditions.
The Root Cause: Insufficient edge case testing, arrogant assumptions about driving complexity, lack of human-in-the-loop safeguards, and messaging that amplified capabilities over constraints.
Organizations assume AI knows more than humans and can operate independently
Lack of proper oversight, bias detection, and risk management frameworks
Pressure to implement AI quickly without proper preparation or testing
Insufficient testing for real-world complexity and unexpected scenarios
These common misconceptions lead organizations down the path to AI disasters
Reality: AI systems are only as good as their training data and are often limited by the biases and gaps in that data. They lack human judgment, context, and ethical reasoning.
Reality: Autonomous AI systems are prone to catastrophic failures. The most successful AI implementations maintain human oversight and intervention capabilities.
Reality: AI augments human capabilities rather than replacing them. The most effective AI implementations enhance human decision-making and productivity.
Reality: Rushed AI implementation leads to failures. Methodical, capability-based progression ensures sustainable success and avoids costly mistakes.
SIMA360™ didn't emerge in isolation. It was carefully crafted by analyzing and synthesizing the best elements from the world's leading AI maturity frameworks, creating a comprehensive solution that addresses the gaps left by existing models.
Through extensive comparative evaluation, we identified the strengths and limitations of existing frameworks, then combined their best features while addressing their collective blind spots.
Gartner's AI dimension - High-level governance and adoption frameworks
McKinsey's diagnostic approach - Strong capability assessment methodologies
NIST's trustworthiness focus - Ethical AI and accountability frameworks
Microsoft's business alignment - Practical, enterprise-ready approaches
Operational execution depth - Most frameworks lacked detailed implementation guidance
Granular maturity stages - 10-stage model vs. typical 3-5 stage approaches
Human-AI collaboration focus - Emphasis on AI autonomy with human oversight
Integrated PDCA cycles - Continuous improvement at every maturity stage
By synthesizing the best elements from 9 leading frameworks and addressing their collective limitations, SIMA360™ provides the most comprehensive, operationally-focused AI maturity model available. It combines strategic vision with tactical execution, governance with innovation, and human insight with AI capability.
A structured approach to AI governance that prevents disasters before they happen
For organizations implementing AI initiatives across the enterprise, there are many risks, such as AI dimension misalignment, technical debt, and unintended consequences.
We need a way to control AI initiatives with proven, safe, and practical guidance. The control must be based on evidence-based research on how to position tools, roles, and activities to help organizations progress methodically and safely when applying AI.
❌ Wrong Way:
"I have a problem → Let's use AI to solve it"
✅ Better Way:
"What do I need to do to be prepared? → What can AI do for me?"
Organizations must build foundational capabilities before advancing to more complex AI implementations
Ensure AI initiatives support business objectives before implementation
Establish proper oversight and risk management before deployment
Use cyclical methodology to continuously improve and adapt
Four integrated components working together to prevent AI disasters and accelerate safe transformation
The foundational framework providing three core models: AI Dimensions (Strategy, Governance, Data, People, Technology), AI Capability Levels, and AI Tool Categories. Establishes the AI dimension foundation for all AI initiatives.
Learn MoreThe FLAI cycle methodology (Frame, Learn, Assess, Improve) that guides project execution and ensures continuous improvement throughout the AI implementation process. Similar to Plan-Do-Check-Act but optimized for AI projects.
Learn MoreReady-to-use tools, templates, and guidance that bridge strategy and execution. Includes capability assessment tools, project planning templates, and governance frameworks to prevent the mistakes that led to AI disasters.
Learn MoreComprehensive training programs and certification pathways that build organizational capability and ensure successful framework adoption across all levels. Learn from real-world failures to avoid repeating them.
