Organizational Readiness for Implementing Change (ORIC)

The Organizational Readiness for Implementing Change (ORIC) is a 12-item self-report measure that assesses organizational readiness to implement evidence-based practices and innovations. Developed by Shea and colleagues in 2014, the ORIC measures two critical dimensions of organizational readiness: Change Commitment (the extent to which staff and leadership are motivated and dedicated to implementing change) and Change Efficacy (the extent to which staff believe they have the capability and resources to successfully implement the change). The ORIC is grounded in implementation science theory and has demonstrated strong psychometric properties and predictive validity for implementation success across healthcare, mental health, and organizational settings.
