PatternLab Cortex connects granulation, compression, coating and packing to cleaning transitions, hold clocks, hazard classes and multi-resource eligibility in one operational semantic layer.
AI maps existing item-master fields, routings, equipment records and controlled documents into the ready-made OSD model. Operations and QA review the mappings; accepted mappings and changes remain traceable and versioned before Cortex solves against them.
Bulk hold time is an expiry. Tooling has its own location, queue and wear. The clean belongs to the transition. Hazard containment and product segregation are hard eligibility rules, never soft penalties.
Cortex uses validated operational constraints to produce a feasible plan. It does not provide a Quality product and never releases a batch.
