Grounded in the proprietary LogicAI Prioritization Framework, our white paper outlines a proven, repeatable approach to evaluating initiatives based on strategic alignment, ROI, feasibility, and organizational readiness.

A glimpse into AI Use Case Intake & Prioritization Framework for Enterprise Success

The Need for a Structured Intake & Evaluation Process

Implementing AI at scale is not just a technology challenge—it’s an organizational and strategic challenge. Many enterprises have struggled because they lacked a clear front-end process to capture, assess, and prioritize AI ideas. In practice, AI use case ideation can come from anywhere—business units, IT, innovation teams, or vendor pitches—often leading to a long “wish list” of projects. Without a structured intake funnel, this can result in:

  • Misalignment with Strategy: Teams may pursue trendy AI projects that don’t truly move the needle. A Deloitte study emphasizes the importance of aligning AI initiatives with overall business strategy, advising organizations to build “bridges to sustained ROI” by prioritizing high-impact initiatives. Neglecting this often leads to impressive technical deployments with minimal business value.
  • Resource Dilution: When there’s no clear prioritization, organizations often greenlight too many projects. This “too many bets” problem, cited by BCG, leads to inefficiency. By contrast, top performers concentrate over 80% of their AI investments on a few high-value initiatives. A central intake process helps organizations focus on what matters most.
  • Inconsistent Evaluation: Without a unified scoring framework, departments apply different criteria—some emphasize payback time, others focus on risk avoidance. A standardized evaluation model ensures that every use case is judged on the same terms, improving transparency and alignment, regardless of whether it originates at the enterprise or business unit level.
  • Siloed or Redundant Efforts: Multiple teams might unknowingly pursue similar AI solutions—such as developing their own NLP models or dashboards—without knowledge sharing. A central intake process helps identify redundancies and encourages reusability of models, data assets, and platforms.
  • Unmanaged Risk and Compliance: Use cases involving customer data or third-party platforms can pose compliance, ethical, or security risks. A formal intake process brings visibility and enables early identification of red flags—before a project moves into development.
