Beyond Q&A

The floor doesn't just need answers. It needs a record.

These used to live in spreadsheets, paper logs, or nobody's memory. In Plant Cortex they're tracked registers with a real lifecycle, role-based custody and a full audit trail — grounded in the same manuals as everything else, and searchable from one box across all seven.

Drag the ring — every register lives here, seated edge-out.

01

Work permits, with a lifecycle

Draft → submitted → active → closed, with department routing, per-department approvers, corrective-action owner/due-date tracking, logged shift handover, and AI-assisted drafting from the manuals. Nothing auto-closes — an unclosed permit past validity shows as overdue, never quietly disappears.

02

Near-miss & safety reporting

A structured, firsthand report — never AI-generated — routed to the right department, with photo evidence, a one-click "create corrective permit" action, and an admin acknowledgement step so a report can't just vanish unread.

Open → Ack'd → ClosedPhoto evidence
03

Spare-parts inventory

On-hand quantity and reorder points per part, with every adjustment logged as a movement — never a silent overwrite — and a bulk "restock the whole low-stock list" purchase request in one click.

04

Downtime & reliability KPIs

Every stoppage logged becomes real MTBF/MTTR/availability per equipment, a 30-day trend, a top-offender Pareto chart, and a real ₹/$ cost per hour — human-entered, never invented, never a guessed dollar figure.

05

Shift handover log

A running narrative for the whole shift. The person writing the handover can never be the one who acknowledges it — closing the exact gap behind well-known handover failures.

BOM & purchase requests

Draft → submitted → approved → ordered → received, with every line item resolved back to a real manual source — not a generated list you have to double-check by hand. Exports to CSV any time.

07

SOPs & checklists

A repeatable, step-by-step procedure grounded in the manuals — not a generated document, a real checklist a technician runs through and checks off. A "suggest a change" loop re-checks the manuals before any step is edited, and an unconfirmed override still needs a human sign-off before it sticks.

One place to see all of it

A real command-center dashboard, not seven separate logins.

Every register above rolls up into one home screen — the exact things a plant manager actually checks first thing, already counted, without opening a single one.

One search box, every register

Type an equipment name or a permit number once — matching permits, near-misses, downtime, spares, POs and shift logs all come back together.

SLA escalation, not a silent miss

An overdue permit, an unresolved near-miss, a critical part gone low — each escalates automatically and pushes a real alert, instead of aging quietly in a list nobody's watching.

Real Equipment landing pages

Search one machine and see its tagged manuals and drawings, its live MTBF/MTTR/availability, and every open record against it — one page, not four searches.

Why this matters

One audit trail, not seven spreadsheets nobody trusts.

Every register shares the same discipline as the Q&A itself: a real lifecycle instead of a status nobody enforces, role-based custody instead of "whoever has the file," and a full history instead of a value that just got overwritten.
