FREE CHECKLIST • 12 QUESTIONS

Is your fixed asset register ready for AI?

Year-end is when the register gets its hardest look: the close, the audit, the tax return and, this year, the new bonus depreciation dates. If your team is going to lean on AI for any of that, the time to find out whether your data and process can support it is before the work starts, not halfway through it.

Three of the twelve questions

Each one is a plain yes, no or don't know. None of them needs a system report to answer, and each points at something that decides whether AI helps your team or misleads it.

Data

Does every asset trace to a CIP line, purchase order or invoice?

If a person can't trace an asset back to its source, an AI tool can't either, and its answer about that asset is a guess.

People and process

Does more than one person understand how the register is maintained?

AI is only as good as the questions it is asked, and those come from the people who know how the register really works.

Trust and control

Does a named person approve each AI result before it reaches the books?

When no one has been named, everyone checks everything, which is why so many teams still don't trust the AI they bought.

Would you rather just talk it through?

If your team already has an AI tool and is still checking every answer, a 30-minute call is a quicker way to find out why. You can also learn more about how we work.
