Inbound Re-Planning

Disruption to verified recovery, with the rest of the plan untouched

What this demo shows

Disruption to verified recovery, with proof the rest of the plan was left alone.

Objective

Something breaks on the inbound side. Show which lines are at risk and when, price the recovery options against downtime avoided rather than a yes/no, verify every option is legal before offering it, and prove the shipments the disruption never touched are byte-identical to the baseline.

Try this

  1. Set scenario New model launch ramp, plant North Assembly. The baseline shows roughly 523 shipments, all LEGAL.
  2. Run Carrier breakdown with a 14 hour delay. The truck now docks after receiving closes and receiving_window says by exactly how much.
  3. Run Customs hold. One event hits 46 cross-border shipments at once and adds roughly 100 hours of downtime.
  4. Run JIS sequence break. The cart arrives short of a whole block, so sequence_integrity fails: parts on the dock, line still stops.
  5. Compare the four recovery options on cost per hour avoided, not sticker price.

What to look for

  • The baseline is legal before you touch it. Any rule failure you see is caused by the disruption, never by sloppy plan generation.
  • The broken rule names the measured value and the limit, not just a red light. That trace is the product.
  • An option landing after the stop cannot prevent it and says so, while still showing the downtime it removes. "We are going down, the question is how long" is a real answer.
  • The cheapest option is often not the best value per hour recovered.
  • Untouched shipments are hashed and compared server side, so the guarantee is asserted rather than claimed.

Baseline inbound plan

Every inbound shipment is split to fit one trailer on cube and payload, given a dock slot inside the receiving window with door capacity respected, and checked against all six inbound rules. The baseline is legal by construction, so a disruption is what breaks it, never sloppy plan generation.

Introduce a disruption

Five inbound failure modes. Each one recomputes the clock, re-verifies the whole plan, prices recovery options against downtime avoided, and diffs the result against the baseline.
