KEA — Knowledge & Evidence Automation

KEA (Knowledge & Evidence Automation) is the AI-driven system at the heart of Trantiate. It captures, organizes, and generates the documentation, logs, and evidence needed for safe, auditable transformation — turning documentation from a manual burden into an automated outcome.

Documentation Without the Burden

In most transformation programs, more energy is spent writing about the work than doing the work. Status decks, requirement documents, meeting notes, audit logs, and progress reports consume hours every week, without directly moving the transformation forward.

KEA reverses this pattern. Instead of asking people to write, record, and summarize, KEA listens to what is already happening — lifecycle events, work orders, role interactions, and conversations — then converts that activity into structured documentation and evidence automatically.

Core Purpose
From Manual Writing to Automated Memory

KEA ensures that every decision, risk, validation, and outcome leaves a reliable trace, without asking teams to stop and “write the document.” Transformation work stays focused on change; KEA handles the memory.

What KEA Captures — The Memory of Transformation

KEA functions as the central memory engine for Trantiate. It continuously captures, organizes, and connects signals from across the TRANT lifecycle.

Requirements & Intent

Business and technical requirements, functional expectations, rationale behind decisions, and desired outcomes for each Trant.

Architecture & System Behavior

Descriptions of current and future state, integration contracts, data flow narratives, and change impacts across systems and journeys.

Work Orders & Evidence

Validation criteria, dependencies, proof of completion, and the links between actions and outcomes across the TRANT lifecycle.

Governance & Compliance Logs

Audit trails, security validations, regulatory notes, risk mitigation records, and architecture review evidence.

Lifecycle Outputs

Clarifications from Target, VEM filtration outputs, gap analysis findings, navigation adjustments, and transform results.

Interaction Transcripts

Summaries from Daily Pulse and Weekly Connect, role-specific updates, escalations, and resolutions across the team.

User & Business Feedback

Adoption insights, readiness indicators, operational impacts, and Buyer feedback that shape how transformation is absorbed in the real world.

Single Source of Truth

By combining these streams, KEA becomes the authoritative record of the transformation, removing ambiguity, contradictions, and missing information.

What KEA Produces — Fully-Formed Documentation

KEA does more than capture information. It writes. Using lifecycle context and transformation semantics, KEA generates complete, audit-ready documentation directly from real work.

Requirements & Design

Business Requirements Documents (BRDs), Functional Requirements Documents (FRDs), and architecture documents covering current state, future state, deltas, and dependencies.

Quality & Testing

Test cases, test results, regression logs, and other evidence that work has been validated and behaves as intended.

Compliance & Risk Evidence

Risk assessments, control validations, regulatory mappings, and other artifacts that feed into governance and audit reviews.

Operational Knowledge

Knowledge base articles, process narratives, change impact assessments, and support materials for users and operators.

TCAP Inputs

All the evidence required for the Trantiator Compliance & Audit Pack (TCAP) — assembled continuously as transformation progresses.

Executive-Ready Summaries

Concise summaries for boards, steering committees, and senior leaders, presenting progress, risks, and outcomes in a consistent, clear format.

Why KEA Is the Missing Ingredient

KEA directly addresses the four chronic weaknesses that have slowed transformation programs for decades.

  • Humans forget. KEA becomes the persistent memory of the transformation.
  • Humans are inconsistent. KEA enforces structured, repeatable documentation patterns.
  • Documentation drifts out of date. KEA updates artifacts in near real-time as work happens.
  • Evidence is often missing. KEA ensures every action and decision leaves a trace.
Impact on Teams

Makers focus on engineering, Checkers on validation, Seers on communication, Buyers on adoption — without being buried in paperwork. Transformation accelerates not by working harder, but by reducing cognitive and administrative load.

KEA + Trantiator — The Cognitive Core

KEA is designed as a core module of the Trantiator Agentic AI. It integrates with lifecycle transitions, work order orchestration, Navigator updates, gap analysis, and TCAP generation.

Where the human team performs the transformation, Trantiator and KEA perform the cognition: listening, analyzing, recording, writing, correlating, reconciling, evidencing, and summarizing.

Lifecycle Connection

KEA is aware of every TRANT stage — from Target clarifications to Transform outcomes — ensuring that the documentation always reflects the true state of the journey.

KEA is one pillar of the Trantiate ecosystem, alongside VEM, TCAP, the role model, and the Navigators. The white paper explains how these parts combine into a complete transformation operating system.
