Exception detection and routing across your ops stack

The exception already exists in one of your systems; nobody is watching the seam between them, so it is found by the person it hurts. This is how an agent detects, classifies and routes while the correction in any system stays a person’s.

The exception is found by the person it inconveniences, not the person who can fix it

Today

Checks run when somebody remembers to run them

  • The same job is recorded one way in the scheduling system and another way in the job record, and nobody notices until the crew turns up to the wrong version.
  • A hand-off between two systems silently did not happen.
  • The exception gets discovered by the person it inconveniences rather than by the person who could fix it, and the checks that would have caught it run only when somebody remembers to run them.
With agents

The seams are watched and each exception reaches a named owner with the evidence

  • The exception reaches the person who can act on it.
  • The owner sees the evidence rather than the alarm.
  • Recurring exceptions become visible as a pattern.

How an agent runs it

The exception already exists in one of your systems. What is missing is someone watching the seam between them, so the workflow watches the seams, classifies what surfaces, and hands each exception to a named owner with the evidence attached.

01

Monitors

Watches the records and feeds you authorize, across the systems you name, on the cadence you set, so detection does not depend on someone looking.
02

Detects

Applies the written rules and thresholds you give it, and only those, to surface the conditions you defined as exceptions.
03

Classifies

Sorts each exception by type and severity against your own definitions, so that like goes with like.
04

Assembles

Attaches the evidence: which records disagree, where, and since when, so the owner reads a case rather than an alert.
05

Human gate

Routes every exception above your threshold, and anything outside a written rule, to the named owner for a decision. The corrective action in any system stays a person's, and the checks can be run by hand at any point because the rules and thresholds live in your systems.
06

Tracks

Holds each exception open until the owner closes it, and re-surfaces the ones that age.
07

Reports

Lists what is open, what closed, and which exception types recur, so the pattern is visible to the person who can change the process.

Results

What changes when the seam is watched

Reaches the person who can act

Routing runs on the rules and the owner list rather than on who happened to notice.

Evidence, not an alarm

The case is assembled before it is routed, so the first thing the owner reads is what disagrees and where.

Patterns become visible

The report groups by type across cycles, so a process problem shows up as a process problem.

Where this fits

Workflow / Automate a Workflow

Tier 1 through the Automate a Workflow door: one process, the exception layer, end to end. The boundary is that it detects and routes; a person decides and acts, and no correction is written to any system by the workflow. It extends toward The agent-run operations back office as a possible next step rather than a promised state, where this layer sits over every other operations workflow. How It Works shows how the gate is built.

Tier 1 / Prove
How It Works

Questions, answered

No. It detects, classifies and routes. The correction in any system is a person's, gated by default and opened only on your decision. The rules and thresholds are yours and live in your systems, so the checks can be run by hand at any point without the agent.
