What this solves
What a pot furnace coloured glass unit deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it
Today
Gas and oxide cost per kg of each colour is unknown, so some colours are sold at a loss. Colours are planned pot by pot in the head, and small orders wait for a pot.
In MatruOS
MatruOS sets up 9 routines, 1 workflow, 3 registers and 7 licences for a pot furnace coloured glass unit, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.
What changes
The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
