Production Delay Customer Notice Agent

Warn customers early with an accurate date and options.

Production Delay Customer Notice Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Customers hate to learn about a delay when the shipment fails to appear. This agent scans open orders for risk, such as a late material, a line down or a rising backlog. It recalculates the ship date with the current plan and drafts a notice with options, for example split shipment, partial delivery or a new date. It tracks replies. If a new delay appears before the notice is sent, it recalculates the date and updates the draft. The coordinator approves each notice. Edge case: a customer with a penalty clause gets the notice flagged for a manager's review.

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

It tells a customer when the recalculated ship date passes the promised date by a set margin.

  • Notify when the delay is over 1 day
  • Flag orders with penalty clauses for a manager
  • Offer at least one alternative
  • Recalculate before every send

Make it yours

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

  • Delay margin that triggers a notice (default 1 day)
  • Options to offer
  • Penalty clause rule
  • Notice template

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Coordinator approves each customer notice

Hard limits

  • Never send without the coordinator's approval
  • Never promise a date it has not recalculated

It stops when

  • Done: notices sent and replies logged
  • Stop: the customer disputes and the coordinator takes over

An example run

What happensOrder 9120 is promised for June 12. A material delay moves the ship date to June 16. The agent drafts a notice offering a split shipment of half on June 12. Before sending, a machine fault adds a day. It updates the draft to June 17. The coordinator approves it and the customer picks the split.
