I’m an Environmental & Urban Engineer with 10+ years of experience helping companies turn sustainability goals into practical, measurable results. I’ve worked with corporations across different sectors, supporting ESG strategy, waste management, and environmental compliance, always connecting technical data with real business decisions. My core expertise includes: • ESG and sustainability strategy • Carbon footprint (Scope 1, 2, 3) • Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) • Waste management & circular economy • Environmental compliance and reporting I bring both technical depth and a client-oriented mindset, with experience managing projects end-to-end, from analysis to implementation. If you’re looking to structure your sustainability efforts, improve reporting, or build a practical ESG roadmap, I’d be happy to help.

Inefficient processes cost you time, money, and customers. I find where — and fix it, with two decades of Lean Six Sigma discipline. I'm Sona Murgai, Founder & Principal Advisor of Process Velocity Advisors LLC, a business process consulting firm serving small businesses, mid-market companies, and healthcare organizations. Before founding the firm, I spent 12+ years in process excellence at GE and Genpact — as a functional Master Black Belt, Black Belt trainer, and Master Coach — where I mentored 200+ Green Belt and Black Belt projects, designed Black Belt training and certification assessments, and led the Process Excellence function for Consumer Goods, Pharma, and Life Sciences business units of a global outsourcing firm. I've helped process owners cut costs, reduce errors, and grow revenue across Healthcare, Pharma, Life Sciences, Retail, Retail Lending, Credit Cards, and Consumer Goods. HOW I WORK: ● Define the process and success metrics up front ● Map the current state — how work actually flows, including the exception paths ● Analyze root causes with data, not opinions ● Improve: design and implement changes your team can sustain ● Control: measure results against the baseline, then standardize with SOPs, controls, and dashboards ENGAGEMENTS I TAKE ON: ● Business process mapping, analysis, and redesign ● Operational efficiency audits with a prioritized improvement roadmap ● SOP development and process documentation ● Workflow automation readiness — requirements, tool selection, and (for healthcare) HIPAA/BAA compliance validation before you build; for technology builds I work with an established technology delivery partner, with design and accountability staying with me ● Lean Six Sigma training and coaching — Green Belt/Black Belt mentoring, Black Belt curriculum design, Advanced Lean programs ● Project management and change management for improvement initiatives CERTIFICATIONS: Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt (functional) · Certified Six Sigma Black Belt · Certified Advanced Lean Trainer · Design Thinking Practitioner · MBA Most engagements start with a fixed-fee Operations Diagnostic — a structured assessment delivering a process map, findings, and a roadmap you can act on with or without me. Message me with the operational problem you're facing — I'll respond with specific questions, not boilerplate.

Fractional Systems Engineer & Infrastructure Advisor Complex IT, Data Center & Delivery Systems Overview / Summary I work with organizations that operate complex technical environments and need clarity, stability, and credible decision-making, not surface-level explanations. My background is in systems engineering and large-scale technical operations, where infrastructure is not theoretical. It is power distribution, cooling, cabling, monitoring, automation, and governance operating under real constraints. Over the past two decades, I’ve worked across defense, enterprise IT, and modernization programs where reliability, transparency, and risk discipline matter more than speed or marketing narratives. Today, I support clients in three primary ways: • Explaining complex IT and data center infrastructure for technical and semi-technical audiences • Designing and auditing system-level delivery and governance models where failure carries real consequences • Translating engineering reality into executive-ready insight without diluting technical truth Clients tend to engage me when: • Oversimplification would be dangerous • Infrastructure needs to be understood as a system, not a checklist • Content, analysis, or guidance must reflect how environments behave in production I’m known for connecting the dots between physical infrastructure, automation, monitoring, and human decision-making — and for communicating those connections clearly to the people accountable for outcomes. What I’m Typically Hired For • Infrastructure & Systems Analysis Making complex environments intelligible across technical, operational, and leadership layers. • Technical Thought Leadership & Educational Content Producing accurate, credible material on IT infrastructure, data centers, automation, and systems governance. • Delivery & Governance Stabilization Helping organizations regain control when projects, platforms, or portfolios drift out of alignment. • Human-Centered Automation & Monitoring Strategy Designing automation and observability approaches that support — not replace — accountable human judgment. Selected Outcomes • Supported 200+ complex initiatives across regulated and high-risk environments • Helped organisations reduce rework and delivery friction through system-level modelling and clarity • Enabled executives and technical leaders to make better decisions by seeing infrastructure holistically • Delivered over $300K in consulting value through focused, high-trust engagements How Engagements Usually Work Most clients engage me in one of the following ways: • A diagnostic review of infrastructure, delivery, or governance challenges • A targeted advisory engagement focused on a specific technical or operational problem • A fractional advisory role supporting ongoing clarity, decision-making, or content development Engagements are typically milestone-based or retainer-driven, depending on scope and duration. Core Domains & Tools Systems Engineering • IT & Data Center Infrastructure • Infrastructure Monitoring & Observability Automation Strategy • Model-Based Delivery & Governance • Risk & Reliability Technical Writing & Thought Leadership • Executive Translation Microsoft 365 • PowerShell • SharePoint • Enterprise Collaboration Platforms Working Philosophy Technology should make systems clearer, not more opaque. Automation should elevate human judgment, not obscure accountability. Good infrastructure thinking respects reality — not just diagrams. If your organization needs someone who understands how complex technical systems behave in the real world — and can communicate that understanding with precision — we should talk.
