About Falco

Not consulting from outside the room. Running operations, feeling the pressure, making the decisions. This is the team behind Falco.

Who We are

Falco Peregrinus Technologies was founded on one belief: the gap between institutional vision and institutional reality is always an execution problem.

We are operators, not theorists. We have run the systems ourselves large-scale digital learning operations, institutional redesigns, faculty capability programs. That experience is the reason our solutions work in the messiness of real operations, not just in a proposal.

Today we work with universities, enterprises, and government building programs, platforms, and consulting engagements that close the gap between what institutions know they need to do and what they are actually able to do.

From competency to capability. From compliance to evidence. That's Falco.

The Falco Way

Our difference comes from how we operate, and how we think.

How We Operate

Systems must breathe: Frameworks aren't meant for slides; they must live in everyday practice.

Technology must simplify: Tools should cut through noise, not add to it.

Change must stick: Transformation isn't real until it survives without us.

That's why we don't leave when the deck is done, we leave when the system runs.

How We Think

The peregrine falcon isn't the fastest because it flaps hardest. It's the fastest because it waits, calculates, and strikes with surgical focus.

Speed with clarity: cutting through inertia, never rushing blind.

Precision with purpose: aligning people, processes, and technology without waste.

Relentlessness with impact: staying until results are visible, measurable, undeniable.

How We Operate

Why Falco

Operator's DNA

Operator's DNA

Falco was built by practitioners, not theorists. We've run the systems ourselves, managing digital education at scale, fixing broken operations, and building products that actually work in the messiness of day-to-day execution. That experience gives us an insider's view: we know what breaks, why it breaks, and how to build solutions that endure.

Forward by Design

Forward by Design

We don't solve for today only to create new problems tomorrow. Every solution we design is built with adaptability in mind, able to flex with growth, technology shifts, and changing expectations. Our work anticipates the future, so you aren't forced to constantly start over.

Falcon Philosophy

Falcon Philosophy

Fast. Precise. Relentless. The peregrine falcon teaches us that speed without clarity is waste, and precision without timing is useless. That philosophy shapes every project we take on, moving quickly where it matters, aligning people and processes with surgical focus, and refusing to stop until impact is visible and measurable.

Our People

Two practitioners. 70+ combined years of building from the inside. Not the most impressive bios you will read - the most relevant ones.

Co-Founders

Ashok Tamhankar

Ashok Tamhankar

Co-Founder, Falco Peregrinus Technologies

Ashok brings over 25 years of experience in learning transformation, operations, and institutional strategy. His career spans leading large-scale digital education initiatives, rationalizing academic delivery for tens of thousands of learners, and building systems that turn complexity into clarity.

As a leader, he is known for combining decisive execution with human-centered thinking. He has been instrumental in shaping operating models for universities, corporates, and public sector projects, always with one anchor: execution that lasts.

Beyond his professional role, Ashok is also an avid hobby photographer. Much like his work, his photography reflects a search for clarity, perspective, and moments that often go unseen, a reminder that execution in leadership, as in art, is about framing the details that matter.

He is the author of The Operator's Code - field notes on operational leadership, each chapter anchored by an AMT photograph. He is a Certified Independent Director (IICA/MCA) and an M.Sc. graduate of BITS Pilani.

Ashok co-founded Falco on one conviction: complexity is always a system problem. Systems can be fixed. He builds the fixes.

Dr KRV Subramanian

Dr KRV Subramanian

Co-Founder, Falco Peregrinus Technologies

Raja brings 45+ years across university education, institution-building, and academic innovation. His career spans building universities from the ground up, designing learning systems for tens of thousands of students, and leading academic transformation at institutions where the stakes were national, not just institutional.

As an academic leader, he is known for combining rigorous intellectual standards with a rare willingness to experiment. He has shaped curriculum, assessment, and delivery models across undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programmes, always with one anchor: learning that changes what people can actually do, not just what they know.

Beyond his institutional roles, Raja is a prolific author and a mentor to scholars across disciplines. In 2025 alone he published three books on Generative AI in education: for faculty, for PhD scholars, and for online learners. He has taught and mentored several thousand PhD scholars, postgraduate students, and online learners across his career. His LinkedIn following of over 11,000 is built not on personal branding but on the quality of what he puts into the world.

He holds a PhD and double Master's degrees from BITS Pilani. He was Dean of Distance and Work-Integrated Learning Programs at BITS Pilani and Founding Director of the Myanmar Institute of Information Technology, a Government of India project executed for the Government of Myanmar. He currently serves as Senior VP Learning at USDC Global, leading learning innovation at scale.

Raja co-founded Falco on one conviction: that the gap between what universities teach and what the world demands is not a content problem. It is a learning design problem. He designs the solution.

Raja is why the Lab exists. Ashok is why it ships.

Advisor

Prof. S. Sadagopan

Advisor

Former Founder-Director of IIIT Bangalore, Prof. Sadagopan built IIIT-B into one of India's premier technology institutions. He wrote the foreword to Dr. Raja Subramanian's Generative AI for PhD Scholars - a book he called a resource he wished had existed when he was 50 years younger. He continues to guide Falco's work at the intersection of technology and institutional education.

Our Team

Behind Falco's leadership and advisors is a team that turns vision into reality. Our consultants, designers, technologists, and operators bring depth across disciplines, from building digital platforms to crafting learner engagement models, from streamlining operations to ensuring compliance at scale.


They are the ones who transform frameworks into systems, and systems into results. Quietly, relentlessly, they make sure execution doesn't just begin, it endures. This extended team is what allows Falco to deliver with both speed and scale.

Our Commitment

Our Commitment
Transformation leads
Clarity guides
Sustainability lasts
Sticky, not forgettable

We believe transformation is a journey, not a transaction. That is why we measure success not by the plans we hand over, but by the systems still running long after we are gone.

At Falco, clarity comes before complexity, impact comes before activity, and sustainability comes before speed alone.

Transformation is a journey

We focus on building systems that last, not just delivering projects.

Impact matters more than activity

Results speak louder than reports. We measure what matters.

Execution defines us

We don't just plan. We build, test, and deliver operational excellence.

Execution isn't just what we do - it's who we are.

Capability built. Evidence generated. Systems that run.
