GEM.IQ by GlobalEdgeMarkets · 6 Executive Readiness Diagnostics

Make-or-break calls deserve more than a gut feel.

Market entry, tariff exposure, go-to-market, delivery capacity, AI spend — these are risk-based bets that decide whether a company compounds or stalls. GEM.IQ, the diagnostic suite from GlobalEdgeMarkets, scores each one across weighted, independent dimensions and returns a gap map, not a vanity number. One identity, one subscription, one benchmarked view of where you actually stand.

Capability diagnostics

Maturity X-rays of the functions every company runs — go-to-market, sales, product, AI, and experience. Scored on the same 5-tier scale so results compare across disciplines.

Specialist diagnostics

Domain-specific diagnostics for companies with that exposure. Same rigour and the same tier scale, but the question is narrower — and the output is usually a dollar figure, not just a maturity level.

Who this is for

A specialist diagnostic only applies if you carry that exposure. If you import, manufacture abroad, or pay duty, TariffIQ is scored the same way as the capability IQs — but the output is a recoverable dollar figure. No exposure, no need to run it.

Included in the suite plan alongside every capability diagnostic. More specialist diagnostics are in development.

The methodology

One number is a thermometer. A diagnostic is an X-ray.

The market learned something important from the single-score era: a memorable number becomes a shared language, and a shared language moves boardrooms. That was the right instrument for taking a temperature. It is the wrong instrument when the job is deciding whether to enter a market, absorb a tariff regime, restructure a go-to-market, or bet the balance sheet on an AI program.

GEM.IQ decomposes instead of reducing. Every assessment scores weighted, independent dimensions and returns a gap map — the score is not the product, the map is. That map tells you which weakness is load-bearing, what it costs you to leave it alone, and what to do about it first.

Dimension
What it measures
One relationship signal — how people feel
A weighted, multidimensional map of what actually drives the outcome
Design intent
Reduce, to hide complexity
Decompose, to expose complexity
When it runs
Repeatedly, to track sentiment over time
At the decision point, before capital and reputation are committed
The output
A single number you can hold in your head
A tiered score plus a gap map that routes to a specific fix

A thermometer you keep reading
An X-ray you take at the door
The approach

CANsulting when you can. Consulting when you can't.

Diagnose yourself first. GEM.IQ gives you the scored, benchmarked read in about ten minutes — no procurement cycle, no discovery deck. When the map surfaces a gap that needs senior hands, it routes into a GlobalEdgeMarkets engagement. The diagnostic is the on-ramp to the consulting, never a substitute for it.

Why executives take it seriously

These decisions carry real consequence — market entry, tariff exposure, delivery capacity, transformation spend. A diagnostic that informs them has to be honest about its own construction. Ours is.

A defensible score is not one that has nailed every weight. It is one that is transparent about what is expert-set versus data-derived — and gets more defensible with every assessment run.

01

Dimensions are independent

Each one maps to a real driver of the outcome — a deliberately higher bar than any single-question index has to clear.

02

Weights are stated, not disguised

Expert-derived today from encoded GEM consulting judgment, recalibrated empirically as completion volume grows. We say which is which.

03

Tier bands are provisional and labeled

Cut points are operational routing bands, flagged for recalibration once the data shows where real breaks in behavior fall.

04

Benchmarks harden with volume

Directional now, sharper every quarter. The data-network effect is the asset — and sparse early data is stated plainly, not dressed up.

What you get back

Every assessment returns a scored, benchmarked report

A composite maturity score, a tier your board understands, dimension-level bars, and a spiderweb profile plotted against the peer median. Switch between assessments to see the shape of each one.

One scale, every discipline

CMMI × TRL/MRL maturity ladder

Every dimension of every GEM.IQ assessment is scored on the same five tiers, aligned to CMMI process maturity and to bands of technology and manufacturing readiness. That is what makes scores comparable across trade, product, go-to-market and AI — and comparable quarter over quarter.
