Every schedule change must be traceable, reviewable, and repeatable. RippleFlo brings audit-grade DES simulation to environments where a missed commitment has contractual and regulatory stakes.
ERP is the system of record. But when QA asks why a release date moved, reconstructing the decision from spreadsheets and batch records takes days — if it's possible at all.
Plan, simulate, trace, and publish with simulation history, commitment diff, deterministic replay, and pre-commit blast preview — the rigor regulated environments require.
| Dimension | ERP / MES | RippleFlo |
|---|---|---|
| Decision evidence | Batch records & notes | Simulation archive + replay |
| Schedule publish | Publish and hope | Pre-commit blast preview |
| Change attribution | Manual investigation | Pegging tree export |
| Ripple visibility | Discovered late | Per-commitment severity scoring |
| Audit response | Days to reconstruct | Minutes to replay |
| Equipment failure | Post-event log | Injected in DES first |
| Role review | Email chains | Role-aware change preview |
| What-if cost | Change live plant | Re-run model — zero risk |
Machine down. Commitments slip. Audit trail captures every step — before customer or regulator asks.
Regulated and high-stakes environments need simulation-backed, defensible schedules.
Every schedule decision, simulation run, and replan archived with export.
Pre-commit blast preview shows which lots and promises shift.
Re-run any historical scenario with identical inputs.
Amber and red warnings days before a slip becomes a missed commitment.
Qualified alternates found automatically when primary equipment is down.
Commitment → lot → operation → root cause for review.
ERP logs the downtime after the fact. RippleFlo captures the simulation, the ripple trace, the commitment diff, and the replay ID — before QA publishes the change.
