Why does onboarding fail?
HR, identity, procurement, IT and finance each run their own record. The employee exists five times, in five different states, on the day they start.
Operational Graph
The Workplace Operations Graph
Every category leader owns a graph. Microsoft owns identity. Salesforce owns the customer. Workday owns the workforce. ServiceNow owns infrastructure. SAP owns business processes. Lojycal owns the graph nobody else has built — the operational graph that connects employees, identities, devices, applications, contracts, vendors, financials, compliance controls and workflows into a single operational record.
What is an Operational Graph?
What is an Operational Graph?
Every category-defining company owns a graph. The graph you own defines the category you win.
| System | Graph type |
|---|---|
| Microsoft | Identity Graph |
| Salesforce | Customer Graph |
| Workday | Workforce Graph |
| ServiceNow | Infrastructure Graph |
| SAP | Business Process Graph |
| Lojycal | Workplace Operations Graph |
A Workplace Operations Graph connects employees, identities, devices, applications, assets, vendors, contracts, financials, compliance controls and workflows into a single operational record.
Why Operational Graphs Matter
Why Operational Graphs Matter
The questions every operations, finance, IT and compliance leader keeps asking — and never quite gets a clean answer to.
Why do audits take months?
Evidence lives in inboxes, shared drives and vendor portals. Every control has to be reconstructed by hand because nothing is connected end-to-end.
Why are SaaS costs invisible?
Contracts, seats, usage, owners, renewals and invoices are all managed in different tools — so nobody sees the full economic picture of any single application.
Why are procurement and IT disconnected?
A purchase order is a document in one system. The asset it becomes is a row in another. The user, the seat and the invoice live somewhere else again.
Why does compliance drift occur?
Controls are attested once, then quietly stop reflecting reality. Drift is invisible without a live graph that ties evidence back to the operational record.
Because companies have data silos instead of operational graphs.
Anatomy of an Operational Graph
Anatomy of an Operational Graph
Every object becomes part of a connected operational record. Each hop is a real relationship, not an integration guess.
Employee
01
Person — hired, moved, offboarded. The source event for everything downstream.
Identity
02
Accounts across every IdP and application, tied back to the employee record.
Device
03
Hardware and endpoints assigned to the identity, with live MDM posture.
Application
04
SaaS apps in use — with owners, seats, sensitivity and access scope.
Contract
05
The commercial agreement behind the application — term, price, renewal, seats bought.
Vendor
06
The counterparty — with subprocessors, security posture and paper trail.
Invoice
07
What the vendor actually billed. Tied to the contract and the seats in use.
ERP
08
The accounting record — cost centres, accruals, GL mapping.
Compliance Control
09
Evidence generated automatically from the graph — not reconstructed at audit time.
One employee, one contract, one invoice, one control — traceable in both directions, forever.
Lojycal vs. every graph that came before
Lojycal vs. every graph that came before
Each existing graph solves a real problem — but each one stops at the edge of its own category. The operational graph is what sits between them.
Microsoft Graph
Why Microsoft Graph Isn't an Operational Graph
Microsoft Graph connects Microsoft objects. Lojycal connects business operations.

ServiceNow
CMDB vs. Operational Graph
ServiceNow maps infrastructure. Lojycal maps operational outcomes.

Workforce Graph vs. Operational Graph
Workday knows your workforce. Lojycal knows how your business operates.
