The Challenge

A multi-site manufacturing company relied on manually compiled weekly reports, requiring 12 hours of analyst time and creating 3-day data lags. Leadership was making decisions on data that was already obsolete, and supply-chain anomalies were routinely caught days after they began compounding.

The Solution

AiGiri Insight was connected to their ERP, IoT sensor feeds, and logistics platform. Automated dashboards and daily AI-written summaries replaced the manual reporting process entirely. Custom anomaly detection was tuned to flag deviations in production yield, inventory levels, and supplier lead times.

Implementation approach

The implementation began with a data landscape audit to identify the 11 authoritative data sources across their 4 sites. Insight connected to each via read-only API and database connectors. KPI definitions were co-designed with operations leads in a 2-day workshop, then encoded as monitoring rules. The AI summary pipeline was fine-tuned on the company's historical reports to match their reporting language and executive preferences.

Key technical decisions

Read-only data connectors chosen to avoid impacting operational systems
Anomaly detection thresholds co-defined with operations team to reduce false positives
AI summaries fine-tuned on company's historical reports for consistent executive language
Dashboards built role-specific: COO view vs. site manager view vs. analyst view

The Outcome

Report preparation time dropped from 12 hours per week to zero. Leadership identified a supply-chain anomaly within 4 hours instead of 3 days, preventing an estimated $200K in compounding losses. The operations team reclaimed 2 days of analyst time per week for higher-value analysis.

"The Insight dashboards gave our leadership team a real-time view of operations we'd never had before. The AI summaries alone save us a full day of analyst time every week — and we caught a supplier issue in hours that would have cost us weeks before."
