How It Works

From scattered ideas to a defensible roadmap.

zycore follows a four-phase methodology that takes you from scattered automation ideas to a prioritized, defensible roadmap with business cases ready for leadership.

A proven methodology, now in your hands.

Our four-phase approach codifies the expertise of automation consultants into a repeatable, transparent process that your team can run.

01

Discovery

Structured assessments capture process details across departments volume, frequency, error rates, complexity, and more. Everyone uses the same criteria, so comparisons are objective.

  • Guided interviews with process owners
  • Standardized data collection templates
  • Cross-functional process mapping
  • Quantitative and qualitative inputs
02

Evaluation

Each process is scored against proven automation feasibility factors. You see which opportunities have the highest ROI potential and lowest implementation risk.

  • Multi-criteria scoring framework
  • ROI and payback calculations
  • Technical complexity assessment
  • Risk and dependency analysis
03

Prioritization

Opportunities are ranked and organized into a phased roadmap. Strategic factors not just cost savings inform the sequence.

  • Weighted scoring models
  • Strategic alignment mapping
  • Dependency sequencing
  • Resource and timeline planning
04

Business Case & Alignment

For each priority, zycore generates ROI projections, stakeholder maps, and implementation recommendations. You walk into budget conversations with data, not opinions.

  • Board-ready business cases
  • Executive summary reports
  • Stakeholder communication plans
  • Implementation charters
