How Kognitos Solves It ## Describe the process in English.It runs deterministically. ### Employee Onboarding Automate provisioning, document collection, and system access setup for new hires. "When offer is accepted, create accounts in Workday, assign laptop from IT, and schedule orientation." ### Benefits Administration Automate enrollment, plan changes, and carrier communication during open enrollment. "During open enrollment, compare selected plan to current, submit changes to carrier, and update payroll." ### Compliance Reporting Automate EEO, OSHA, and workforce analytics reporting with data from multiple HR systems. "Compile quarterly EEO-1 report from HRIS data, validate categories, and prepare filing." Compare approaches ## Manual work vs legacy automationvs Kognitos.

Yes. Kognitos coordinates the entire global onboarding process end-to-end. The platform reads new-hire parameters and automatically provisions IT infrastructure, configures payroll software fields, and updates localized benefits registries across five nations simultaneously without manual human coordination. Our HR team spends weeks every year on user access reviews for SOX — can Kognitos automate the collection, review flagging, and sign-off workflow from start to finish? Yes. Kognitos streamlines SOX identity compliance. Digital workflows log into internal networks, compile application permission reports, check active identities against employee databases, and automatically flag access anomalies for HR management review. We have Workday as our HRIS but also use ADP for payroll and a separate LMS — can Kognitos orchestrate across all three without us building custom integrations for each pair? Yes. Kognitos acts as an intelligent process orchestrator, navigating cross-application data flows non-invasively. It reads records in Workday and syncs payroll fields in ADP or course records in your LMS without requiring bespoke API code stacks. When an employee leaves, how fast can Kognitos trigger deprovisioning across IT, payroll, and benefits simultaneously — and what’s the audit trail for compliance? Deprovisioning occurs in minutes. Upon receiving a offboarding notification, Kognitos revokes application access profiles, closes payroll files, and alerts benefits partners—while logging a detailed, compliant audit history for security review. Our HR business partners define processes in plain English SOPs — do they need developer support to turn those into automations, or can they do it themselves? No developer resources are required. Kognitos operates using English-as-Code, allowing HR specialists to convert standard operating procedures directly into production-ready automations by writing natural English commands, eliminating development delays. How does Kognitos handle sensitive PII like compensation and performance data — what controls exist to restrict which automations can access which employee fields? Kognitos uses strict security governance. Platform admins can enforce precise, role-based data visibility policies, ensuring that digital workflows processing sensitive performance or salary metrics mask or restrict field access according to compliance requirements. Does Kognitos HR automation integrate with existing HR systems? Kognitos is designed to integrate seamlessly with most existing HR systems, ensuring that HR automation enhances current workflows without disrupting operations. How can HR automation software enhance employee engagement? By automating routine tasks, HR automation software frees up time for HR professionals to focus on employee development and engagement initiatives, fostering a more positive workplace culture. Is there support available for implementing HR automation? Yes, Kognitos offers comprehensive support throughout the implementation of HR Automation solutions, ensuring that your teams are equipped to utilize our platform to its fullest potential.
