Agent workflows and process redesign

Connect knowledge, AI-assisted tasks and human decisions in a workflow your team will actually use.

Why it matters

An agent that produces good drafts in a demo and bad outcomes in production usually has the same problem: the workflow around it was never designed. Who checks what, when, and with which evidence are design decisions, not afterthoughts.

Who this is for

Operations teams with repeated knowledge work, document-heavy tasks or fragmented hand-offs between people and systems.

What we do

  • Define tasks, evidence sources, exception paths and the points that need human approval.
  • Configure a scoped AKE application and the integrations required for the agreed workflow.
  • Evaluate the system on representative cases, including difficult and incomplete inputs.

What you receive

  • Workflow specification and an agreed responsibility model.
  • Tested prototype or implementation within the contracted scope.
  • Evaluation results, operating instructions and an exception-handling plan.

How it runs

1

Design

Design the workflow and define success with its users.

2

Build

Build and test a limited version using authorised information.

3

Review

Review results, refine the controls and decide whether to extend into production.

Who you will work with

A forward deployed engineer builds the workflow inside your environment with a solution engineer configuring AKE; your process owner reviews each increment and decides the approval points.

An example

A professional-services firm redesigned matter intake so the agent assembles facts, checks conflicts and proposes a scope, while a partner approves before anything reaches the client. Rework fell because every proposal arrived with its sources attached. (Illustrative example.)

Questions

Can an agent take action automatically?
Permissions and approval steps depend on the task. The design distinguishes draft recommendations from actions that have been authorised, and every automatic action has an owner.
How do we judge quality?
We agree task-specific criteria such as accuracy, completeness, rework, exception rates and time saved, then compare them with the baseline from the current process.
