We’re thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between TechCardinal Consulting and Silkflo to address one of the biggest challenges facing US business leaders today. Companies are investing heavily in AI and automation, but Finance and Shared Services leaders are asking the critical question: "Are these initiatives delivering real value, or are we just burning cash?" Spreadsheets and generic project tools are no longer enough to manage and measure the impact of this new wave of technology. This creates a dangerous gap between innovation activity and provable business results.
To solve this, our partnership combines Silkflo’s leading Innovation Value Management platform with TechCardinal Consulting's deep expertise in go-to-market strategy and digital transformation. Together, we provide a unified solution for US firms to:
Justify & Prioritize AI Investments and Process Optimization: Move beyond guesswork with data-backed business cases and clear ROI forecasts.
Gain Real-Time ROI Visibility: Track the actual financial and operational value delivered by every automation and AI project.
De-risk Tech Spend: Implement robust governance across the entire innovation pipeline, from idea to impact.
Prove Operational Value: Quantify the impact of chatbots and AI on key metrics like Average Handling Time (AHT) and cost-per-interaction.
Alexander Leonida, CEO & Founder of Silkflo:
"Innovation is easy; proving its value is hard. Our mission is to give leaders the financial clarity and control to turn great ideas into measurable business impact. Partnering with TechCardinal Consulting allows us to bring this capability to the US market at scale, meeting a clear and urgent need from organizations ready to master their AI investments."
Jeff Heselton, Managing Partner at TechCardinal Consulting:
"Our clients are no longer asking if they should adopt AI, but how to ensure it delivers on its promise. Silkflo is the missing link, the purpose-built platform that connects innovation activity to bottom-line results. We’re excited to bring this essential solution to our clients and help them succeed in the age of automation.”
