Complexity depends on: data availability and quality, integration requirements with existing systems, regulatory compliance needs, required accuracy levels, stakeholder involvement, change management scope, and technical infrastructure readiness. Simple automation tasks are less complex than predictive analytics or deep learning applications.

Prioritization considers: business value and ROI potential, implementation complexity and timeline, available resources and budget, strategic alignment with company goals, risk factors and success probability, data readiness, and potential for scaling across the organization.

Simple automation: 4-8 weeks, chatbots and virtual assistants: 8-12 weeks, predictive analytics: 12-16 weeks, computer vision applications: 16-24 weeks, complex ML models: 24-36 weeks. Timeline varies based on data preparation, integration complexity, and testing requirements.

Success metrics vary by use case: automation (time saved, error reduction), customer service (response time, satisfaction scores), sales (conversion rates, revenue increase), operations (cost reduction, efficiency gains), and predictive analytics (accuracy improvements, risk mitigation).

Data needs vary: automation requires structured process data, NLP needs text/conversation data, computer vision requires images/video, predictive analytics needs historical performance data, and recommendation engines need user behavior and preference data. Quality and quantity requirements depend on model complexity.

Heavily regulated industries (healthcare, finance, government) require AI solutions with explainability, audit trails, and compliance features. This affects use case selection, implementation approach, vendor selection, and ongoing monitoring requirements. Some use cases may require regulatory approval before deployment.

Proof of concept (2-4 weeks) validates technical feasibility with limited scope. Pilot (8-16 weeks) tests real-world application with specific user groups and metrics. Full implementation (3-12 months) involves enterprise-wide deployment with complete integration, training, and change management.

Align use cases with strategic objectives like revenue growth, cost reduction, customer experience improvement, or competitive advantage. Involve executive sponsors, map use cases to KPIs, consider long-term business goals, and ensure adequate resource allocation for strategic initiatives.

Post-implementation support includes: model monitoring and maintenance, performance optimization, user training and adoption support, integration with new systems, scaling to additional use cases, regulatory compliance updates, and ongoing strategic consultation for AI expansion.
