User Guide: Process-Aware AI Frontend
1. Dashboard (The Control Tower)
The landing page provides a high-level view of manufacturing health.
- Total Trends: Shows overall volume, yield, and efficiency.
- Norm Deviations: Highlights articles where actual performance deviates significantly from standard norms.
- Color Coding:
- Red: Urgent attention needed (Low yield / High failure).
- Amber: Warning signs.
- Green: Performing well.
2. Predictions & Insights Tab
This is the main workspace for Planners to analyze specific articles.
How to use:
- Search: Enter an Article ID (e.g.,
18006BA) in the search bar. - View Analysis:
- Norm Rules: See the applicable standard rule (e.g., "4% for >3000m").
- Success Rate: Check the color-coded indicator.
- Red (<70%): Be careful! High risk of short-fall.
- Green (>90%): Reliable article.
- Median Used: See what buffer actually works in practice.
- Generate Recommendation:
- Enter the Order Quantity in meters.
- Press Enter.
- Review the AI Recommended issuance vs. Norm-Based.
- Read the Explanation to understand why the AI made that suggestion.
Visualizations
- Waterfall Chart: Shows "Loss Attribution" — where did the material go? (Process loss vs. Planner cuts).
- Risk Fingerprint: Summary metrics (Reliability, Sensitivity to Policy Changes).
3. Playground (Scenario Simulation)
A sandbox for "What-If" analysis.
Features:
- Simulate Norm Changes: "What if we increased the standard norm for this article to 6%?"
- Impact Analysis:
- Financial: How much would raw material cost increase?
- Operational: How many shortfalls would be prevented?
- ROI Calculation: Helps justify policy changes to management.
4. Best Practices
- Trust the Median: If the AI says "Successful orders used 2.8%," that's a strong signal that 2.8% is sufficient, even if the norm is 5%.
- Heed the Red: If Success Rate is Red, do NOT under-issue. The AI creates a safety buffer for a reason.
- Use the Explanation: Copy-paste the AI explanation into your planning notes to document why you chose a specific issuance quantity.
