Module 09

Block 09 – Implement, Measure and Stay Current

This three-hour teaching block develops learners' ability to plan, monitor and evaluate the implementation of AI and automation initiatives within an organisation. Learners explore implementation planning, performance measurement, quality assurance, governance responsibilities and continuous improvement. They consider how to establish meaningful key performance indicators (KPIs), evaluate actual outcomes against expected benefits and identify when an initiative needs to be adjusted or stopped. The block also examines emerging AI technologies, changing supplier capabilities and the importance of horizon scanning. Learners investigate how organisations can monitor technological developments and respond to opportunities, risks and changing business requirements. Through practical activities and the Northstar Group case study, learners develop an implementation and monitoring approach that supports accountable, evidence-based decision-making. Learners complete Strategy Builder I: Implementation and Monitoring, defining responsibilities, KPIs, quality controls, review points, change triggers and horizon-scanning activities.
