Document workflows

Half the plant's real information arrives as a document and never cleanly reaches a system: a scrap invoice re-keyed by three people, a weighbridge ticket that never ties to the GRN, a drawing or BOQ buried in an inbox for fabrication, a lab/spectro report on paper, a heat-card in a drawer. The document choke-point quietly starves procurement, production, the energy layer and the data layer.

Who has it

Foundries and forging and heat-treatment units for heat and lab records; fabrication shops for drawings and BOQs; and re-rolling mills and scrap traders for weighbridge and dispatch documents.

What we build

Capture each document once at the door, validate it, file it against the right heat, job, PO or project, and make it findable; route it through its approval and into procurement, production, compliance and the data layer.

What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off

Automation for the routine. A person on every decision that matters.

The reliable spine

The reliable spine is non-AI workflow, arithmetic, integrations, approvals and reporting for Document workflows.

Where AI helps

AI is limited to bounded reading, extraction, matching, clustering or drafting from the firm's own data for Document workflows; it never owns the number, the approval, the promise or the decision.

Who signs off

A named person signs off anything touching money, stock, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.

What changes day to day

Documents become data at the door instead of a re-keying queue; the same document is captured once and flows everywhere; a needed GRN, drawing or lab report is found in seconds. Illustrative; final numbers come from your own data.
