We design workflows that organize requests and documentation so each team can find background information and act with the right context. ## Requests reach the plant with the details needed to act. We design workflows so maintenance, purchasing and quality receive complete requests: asset, location, material, evidence and current documentation. Specialist teams retain decisions and can work with the background already assembled. ### 1. Receive the plant report Ask for the plant, asset, location and symptom. Retain evidence with the request so maintenance can assess it using its own criteria. An identifiable, locatable request ### 2. Retrieve current background information Filter documentation by plant, process and role. Show the available version and flag questions or documents requiring review. Technical context with a source ### 3. Assign the review The case reaches maintenance or quality with the gathered description and files. The owner determines priority, diagnosis and intervention in their usual systems. A decision with the specialist ### 4. Prepare materials or a quote request If the review requires a purchase, gather references, specifications and the owner. Keep unconfirmed equivalents and missing details explicit. A purchasing request ready for review ### 5. Record the response and outstanding items Follow-up collects status confirmed by the assigned team. Stalled requests retain the reason and owner so the next shift knows what is missing. Continuity across teams and shifts - The request identifies the plant, asset and reported symptom. - The purchasing file shows specifications and missing details. - Teams consult the authorized version for their process. ## Maintenance receives a useful report Define minimum details and evidence by asset type. Intake organizes information; authorized staff determine diagnosis and intervention. ## Purchasing understands the need The proposed file identifies the requester, material and specification. Catalog comparison flags ambiguities before a quote is requested. ## Procedures by plant and process Document search respects permissions and approved versions. Unsupported questions go to the document owner to avoid filling gaps with assumptions. ## Integrations ERP · GMAO · Quality management · Document management Validate sources by plant and access to ERP, maintenance and quality systems. The first workflow can be limited to queries and request preparation; machinery control or production-line changes are outside this workflow. - Requests accepted without clarification - Time to prepare purchasing requests - Inquiries with a current source document ## Use cases ### Maintenance request intake The proposed workflow organizes operator reports using the fields maintenance needs. It does not interpret a fault as a technical diagnosis or replace isolation and safety procedures. 1. Identify the asset, location and reported symptom. 2. Attach evidence and permitted background information. 3. Assign review according to maintenance-defined criteria. **Expected outcome:** Better prepared orders for a specialist to determine the intervention. ### Technical procurement preparation A structured journey gathers specifications, quantity, priority and documentation for a purchase. Technical alternatives and supplier selection remain under authorized team review. 1. Verify that the request identifies the need and its owner. 2. Compare the request with available material information. 3. Prepare the quotation file with explicit missing items. **Expected outcome:** Fewer exchanges before starting a useful quotation. ### Operational document lookup The proposal is a guided search of approved instructions and records. Responses include version and provenance; a contradiction stops the recommendation and routes it to the document owner. 1. Filter by plant, process and user role. 2. Retrieve the current document and state its scope. 3. Record questions or inconsistencies for review. **Expected outcome:** More direct access to documented operational knowledge. ## Related solutions - [Operations coordination](https://useatiende.ai/en/soluciones/operaciones) - [Procurement & suppliers](https://useatiende.ai/en/soluciones/compras) - [Documents & knowledge](https://useatiende.ai/en/soluciones/documentos) - [Internal IT support](https://useatiende.ai/en/soluciones/soporte-ti) ## Frequently asked questions ### Does it control the production line? The proposal focuses on coordination and documentation. Industrial control and machinery actions require a different scope, architecture and technical validation. ### How are multiple plants handled? Permissions, catalogs, procedures and owners are separated by site. Common processes are shared only when their versions and conditions are compatible. ### Can it help quality teams? It can organize evidence and support queries over approved documents. Product release, deviations and quality decisions remain with responsible personnel. --- Book a demo: https://useatiende.ai/en/demo Contact: ventas@useatiende.ai · https://useatiende.ai/en/contacto Sitemap: https://useatiende.ai/sitemap.xml · llms.txt: https://useatiende.ai/llms.txt
