20 questions across four dimensions. The factors are multiplied, not added: one weak dimension holds everything back, no matter how strong the others are. Your result appears instantly and stays in your browser.
Each answer scores 1 to 5. The average for each dimension is converted into a factor. The index is the product of the four factors multiplied by 100; 100 indicates a solid foundation across all dimensions.
| Factor | Dimension | Range | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| T | Technology | 0,80 – 1,20 | Architecture, interfaces, real-time capabilities, stability |
| D | Data | 0,80 – 1,20 | Structure, inheritance, factual accuracy, guardrails |
| M | Mindset | 0,50 – 1,00 | Levels 1 to 5: 0,5 / 0,7 / 0,85 / 0,95 / 1,0 |
| S | Sovereignty | 0,70 – 1,00 | Control over data, models and decisions; acts as a risk adjustment |
