AI agent for director of operations

Process Pilot Tracker Agent

Decide every pilot on evidence: scale, change or stop.

Process Pilot Tracker Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

A team trials a new picking method for two months, everyone has an opinion and no one checks the numbers against the starting point. When a pilot is approved, the agent sets the baseline from the metrics the pilot should change, such as cycle time, error rate, cost or throughput, and records the plan and the end date. Each week it collects the pilot's results and compares them with the baseline and with a control group where there is one. It checks whether the sample is large enough and whether side effects appear, for example quality dropping while speed improves. If the sample is too small to judge, it keeps the pilot running and checks again next week. At the end, it recommends scale, change or stop. The leader approves. Edge case: a seasonal spike that distorts results.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

A pilot is judged only when the sample reaches the minimum size. Scale when the main metric improves by the target without a harmful side effect, otherwise change or stop.

  • Judge a pilot only after at least 30 cycles or 4 weeks
  • Scale when the main metric improves by 10 percent or more
  • Stop when a side effect worsens by more than 5 percent
  • Adjust for seasonal weeks

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Minimum sample (default 30 cycles)
  • Improvement target
  • Side-effect limits
  • Review day
  • Metrics used

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Leader approves scale, change or stop
  • Leader approves extending a pilot

Hard limits

  • Never end or expand a pilot itself
  • Report side effects even when the main result is good

It stops when

  • Done: decision approved and logged
  • Stop: data collection fails for 2 weeks, tell the leader

An example run

What happensA pilot of batch picking has a baseline of 62 orders per picker hour. After 3 weeks, the pilot shows 71 with 140 batches, but the error rate rose from 0.8 to 1.4 percent. The sample is large enough. The agent identifies mis-picks on mixed batches and recommends a change to limit mixing. After the change, errors return to 0.9 percent, and the leader approves scaling.
