Systemic Friction Audits
Applied Neurodivergence for Operational Clarity
Every organization has a blind side—the gap between how things are documented and how things actually work.
This is where systemic friction lives. It's invisible to standard audits because top-down analysis starts with the documentation and assumes execution follows. It doesn't.
Applied Neurodivergence starts from the bottom up. We examine real execution paths, surface the friction points, and map the gap between policy and reality.
Why It Matters
Operational Drag - Unidentified friction costs organizations millions in lost productivity, workarounds, and talent attrition. The friction tax is real—and it compounds silently.
Invisible Risk - The biggest risks aren't in your risk register. They're in the shadow systems, manual workarounds, and undocumented processes that keep operations running despite official protocols.
Trapped Knowledge - Critical operational knowledge lives in the minds of key personnel—not in your systems. When they leave, that knowledge leaves with them. We call this institutional dementia.
What We Deliver
Friction Mapping - A comprehensive analysis of organizational workflows that identifies where official policy and functional execution diverge. We find the gaps that standard audits miss.
Shadow System Documentation - We surface the informal workarounds, unofficial spreadsheets, and undocumented processes that actually keep your organization running— then help you decide what to formalize, eliminate, or redesign.
Knowledge Extraction - Critical operational intelligence captured and documented before it walks out the door. We convert tribal knowledge into organizational assets.
Integration Recommendations - A clear roadmap for eliminating friction points and aligning systems for operational flow. Not theory—implementation-ready guidance.
The Applied Neurodivergence Advantage
The Applied Neurodivergence Advantage Traditional audits apply frameworks to organizations. We see what's actually happening. Neurodivergent cognition processes bottom-up—details first, then patterns, then systems. This is the same architecture AI uses, and it's why Applied Neurodivergence catches friction that top-down approaches assume away. We don't audit for compliance with documentation. We audit for alignment with reality.
