Government / Public Sector
Automation that survives an audit and a change of minister.
Public agencies cannot deploy AI that cannot be explained to an auditor. Cognitive builds deterministic workflows that run inside your own infrastructure and log every step.

1 in 10 claims routed to a person, by design

CASE STUDY
A federal agency administering citizen entitlement payouts
Citizen payouts run end-to-end across three systems. Identity mismatches and low-confidence documents route to a case officer.
FAQ
Common questions from Government / Public Sector
Yes. Cognitive deploys on-prem or in government-approved cloud environments, with no data leaving your infrastructure unless you choose to.
Our bots interact with legacy systems the same way a staff member would, through the existing screens, so no core system replacement is required.
Every workflow logs a full, timestamped audit trail, and PDPA-compliant handling is built into the deployment, not bolted on afterward.
It stops and goes to a named officer with the full document set attached. Low-confidence extractions, identity mismatches and budget shortfalls are all designed exception paths, not failures.
No. Automation sits on top of what you already run and follows your existing procurement and approval processes.
Most public-sector pilots go live in 6-10 weeks, scoped to a single high-volume process.
You do. We train your team to operate, monitor and extend the workflows, and the process documentation is part of the deliverable.
