Percept

A South African multi-disciplinary consultancy driven by heart and curiosity. Forging enduring relationships with clients who are also working towards a healthier, more financially resilient world. P...ercept was founded by Shivani Ranchod and Dave Strugnell, both of whom are actuaries and academics at the University of Cape Town (UCT). The leap from academia to Percept is surprisingly small: deep curiosity, an endless supply of problems worth solving and questions worth answering, an appreciation of intellectual rigour and the desire to create a learning environment in which people can thrive. The firm builds on their extensive experience across the health and financial services sectors. The word Percept describes the process of fully experiencing the world: those rare moments when our sensory experiences (including thought) harmonise with each other. The multi-dimensional nature of that perception, that goes beyond the superficial, accords with our multi-disciplinary approach and our appreciation of diversity. We deliver solutions that seamlessly thread together an array of skills and perspectives.
