What are the types of problems you're hoping to untangle, more specifically? I assume you want something like... A workflow where each step maps to some provisioning process?
If that guess is reasonably true, then I immediately think of Terraform. You can specify dependencies and write hooks that trigger callbacks when certain steps are called. We use Terraform a bunch under-the-hood for Refinery, and it's great. I haven't used Ansible (only read about it) so I can't contrast them very well.
If you want to chat some more, I'd be curious to hear more about what you're trying to build and see if there is a way we could collaborate. Or if I can offer any recommendations for software that I know of. My email is free at refinery.io :)
