Skye, the schedule bot: a smiling wall calendar with a gear

Skye, your schedule bot

Skye is a schedule bot that checks material and capacity against your production schedule every morning and lists the jobs at risk of shipping late, with the reason for each. It is an example bot Compass AI builds around the ERP you already run, and it never reschedules on its own: a person approves any change to the schedule or a promise date.

Up before the production meeting, list in hand.

The work today

The problem it takes off your plate

The schedule looks fine until someone walks the floor and finds a job waiting on material, or a work center that is already overloaded.

  • Late jobs discovered at the shipping meeting
  • Material and capacity checked by hand, job by job
  • The real schedule living in a spreadsheet beside the ERP

Step by step

How Skye works

One job, step by step. The last step is always yours.

  1. Before the production meeting

    Reads the schedule

    Pulls open jobs, due dates, and routings from the ERP, plus your schedule spreadsheet if you use one.

  2. Job by job

    Checks material

    Looks for jobs missing components or waiting on open POs.

  3. Work center by work center

    Checks capacity

    Compares the hours scheduled on each work center with what it can run.

  4. In time for the meeting

    Hands it to you

    You get a short list of jobs likely to ship late, each with the reason, and any reschedule is your call.

Same rules for every bot: one job, inside your systems, nothing changes without a person, and a plain-English note on what it did.

What it never does without you

Skye only reports risk. A person approves any change to the schedule, a job, or a promise date.

Always waits for a person

  • Rescheduling or resequencing a job
  • Changing a due date or promise date
  • Moving work between work centers

A person approves anything that changes a record, spends money, or goes to a customer or vendor.

Questions

Questions about Skye

No. It lists the jobs at risk and why. Any change to the schedule or a promise date is made by a person.

A job is flagged when its material or work center capacity does not line up with its due date, using the rules you set. Each flag comes with the reason.

No. We build around what you actually use, whether the schedule lives in the ERP, a spreadsheet, or both.
