Add all 15 answers. The maximum is 45 points.
| Score | Readiness band | What it means | Recommended next step |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–14 | Define the project | Too much of the intended purchase remains unspecified or unsupported. | Create the sourcing brief and evidence register before committing to a broad integration. |
| 15–26 | Establish the evidence | You have a project, but important purchasing assumptions remain unresolved. | Close permission and scope gaps; request comparable supplier responses and a bounded catalogue export. |
| 27–35 | Prepare the pilot | There is enough structure to design a useful evaluation, but not enough evidence for release. | Build an authorised pilot plan, prioritising the weakest questions and all failed gates. |
| 36–41 | Close acceptance gaps | Much of the decision is supported, but some operational or approval work remains. | Complete targeted tests, reconcile costs and resolve the remaining acceptance issues. |
| 42–45 | Conduct the release review | Your evidence pack is close to complete for this particular scope. | Hold a documented go/no-go review and approve only the evidenced catalogue, domains and audience. |
These bands describe this quiz’s evidence maturity. They are not legal clearance, supplier rankings or statistically calibrated probabilities of a successful launch.
Which conditions override the total?
Apply these rules in order:
- Outside the demo-only scope: stop using this quiz as the decision framework and obtain a separate assessment.
- Any of Questions 2–6 below 3: mark the result HOLD — scope, rights or risk evidence incomplete. Do not publish the affected content or scope until resolved.
- Any of Questions 9–12 or 15 below 3: mark the result HOLD — technical or release acceptance incomplete. Continue appropriately authorised testing, not public rollout.
- Known prohibition or critical defect: an explicit rights restriction, unresolved applicable legal requirement, exposed secret or other critical unresolved defect overrides every score.
- No override: follow the score-band recommendation and the organisation’s release process. The quiz itself never authorises publication.
A hold does not prevent market research, supplier discussions or a separately authorised closed sandbox. It prevents treating an unfinished evidence pack as approval for public deployment.
Worked example: Fourteen D answers and a C on supplier authority produce 44/45. The result is still HOLD — rights evidence incomplete. Improving the mobile score cannot clear that hold.
