Enterprise Transformation Consulting

Fix the process.
Then automate it.

Most transformation programmes pour technology onto broken processes and quietly scale the waste. We do it in the right order — eliminate the waste first, then automate what's left.

Our philosophy

Automation makes a bad process faster, not better

Transformation doesn't start with technology — it starts with understanding what your process actually does today, as opposed to what the documentation claims.

We help organisations see, simplify and stabilise their operations before a single bot is built, blending Lean and Six Sigma, process mining, automation and change enablement into one disciplined method. Every engagement is judged on a number the finance team recognises.

Who we work with

Built for complex, data-heavy operations

Mid-to-large enterprises where processes are intricate, data is abundant, and legacy systems have quietly accumulated a decade of workarounds.

Healthcare & Life Sciences

Revenue cycle, patient intake, clinical supply and regulatory workflows.

Financial Services

Reconciliation, onboarding, servicing and the controls-heavy back office.

Insurance

Claims handling, underwriting operations and policy administration.

Manufacturing & Supply Chain

Order to cash, procure to pay, planning and plant-level flow.

Typically we're brought in by a CFO, COO, or the leader of a transformation, CI or shared services function.

Where most clients start

The Process X-Ray

Two weeks. One end-to-end process. We pull your event log data and map what actually happens — every variation, every rework loop, every handoff that stalls — not what the SOP says happens.

  • The true as-is process, mapped from your own system data
  • Waste and delay quantified in cost and cycle time
  • A prioritised improvement roadmap
  • A clear view of what's genuinely worth automating — and what isn't

Fixed scope. Fixed fee. No obligation beyond it.

How it works

What a CogniFlo engagement looks like

2 weeks

Diagnose

We pull your event log data and map what actually happens in one end-to-end process. You get the waste quantified in cost and cycle time, and a ranked list of where to start.

8–12 weeks

Redesign

We remove the waste and the variation using Lean and Six Sigma, so the process is stable, capable and actually worth scaling.

Ongoing

Automate & sustain

Only then do we apply RPA, AI and workflow orchestration — and stand up the governance, KPIs and internal capability that keep the gains.
