The loop runs continuously

From balance received to expiry actions ready — while the material still has value

01 Observe

A CMO inventory balance report arrives

A CMO sends its inventory balance report for the material it holds on your behalf over the TraceLink network, the same way they do today.

MINT standardizes and validates it in real time — with lot, expiry date, quantity, and location on every line. One link to the network, not one file format per CMO.

Integrate-Once™: CMO and format changes are absorbed by the network, not by your backlog.

The balance report triggers the agent — no one starts it
02 Reason

The agent analyzes

The moment a CMO balance report arrives, the agent starts. No one assigns it.

Four checks find material approaching expiry before it is written off, each answered from balance reports you already exchange with your CMOs.

How long until it expires? Checked against the lot expiry date and your review window, so material enters review at 90 days rather than at the write-off. Will this site use it in time? Checked against process orders scheduled at that CMO, so a lot with no consumer is flagged before its window closes. Can another site use it? Checked against demand for the same material across your CMO network, so redistribution is offered before return or disposal. Is it in the right order? Checked against other lots of the same material at the site, so the earliest expiry is consumed first.
Every report is evaluated, not a sample — and always before the material passes the point of no return.

03 Act

The work is performed

The agent can start a shared process collaboration: it brings its evidence, your supply manager owns the decision, and the CMO answers in the same thread. One process running across two companies — not an email chain that ends in someone's inbox.

The agent raises the expiry incident, attaches the lot, quantity, and demand picture, and proposes the action. The supply manager owns the exception, decides what to rotate, move, return, or dispose, and speaks for your company. The CMO responds in the same process, on the network — no portal to log into, no re-keying.
The CMO's answer comes back onto the lot, so the action your team commits next is based on a settled fact rather than an assumption.

Decisions that drive business outcomes

Every recommendation the agent makes — rotate, redistribute or return, or dispose — lands in the log with its evidence attached. A person makes the call and instructs the CMO.

It recommends. People decide. The agent never moves, ships, or disposes of material, or instructs a CMO on its own. It reads. It never changes your data. It works from balance reports already flowing over your network link. Your ERP and the CMO’s WMS stay the systems of record. Everything is on the record. Every recommendation, its evidence, and the decision that followed are written to the Manufacturing Inventory Expiry Decision Log — reproducible for an auditor months later.
Captured decisions become the intelligence your experts use to refine the agent’s rules.

Everything the solution includes

This is a complete Agentic Business Process — the agent, the business transactions it reasons over, the collaborative processes that resolve exceptions across companies, and the visibility to run it all.

CMO Inventory Expiry Monitor The governed OPUS Agent, defined in business language by your team through IOTDR.
Business transactions CMO inventory balance reports with lot and expiry standardized across every CMO.
Collaborative processes Cross-company inventory incident workflows for rotation, redistribution, return, and disposal, plus the decision log.
Agentic Control Tower Where external manufacturing supply teams monitor process health, prioritize lots, and review agent sessions.
Reports & dashboards Real-time visibility of MAH-owned material by site, lot, expiry window, and value at risk.

Value that compounds with every balance report

100% Of MAH-owned lots screened for expiry on every report, not at cycle count
40–60% Less material written off to expiry
90 days Of warning on every lot, with the redistribution option already found
1 view Of expiry exposure by material, site, and value across every CMO

Target ranges for the CMO Inventory Expiry Monitor, pending your business value analysis. Your figures are baselined against your own transaction data during the Agentic Accelerator Program, so the business case is demonstrated against your own operation.

One agent. A complete operating model behind it.

The CMO Inventory Expiry Monitor is the Agentic Supply Chain Operating Model in action — one governed OPUS Agent within the transformation TraceLink powers, where human expertise and agentic work combine across the end-to-end supply network.

Every layer is configured around your own operating model, business rules, and standard operating procedures. No custom software development.

01 Agentic Supply Chain Operating Model The transformation itself: a way of running supply chain operations where human teams and governed OPUS Agents work together across the end-to-end supply chain.
02 Agentic Supply Chain Operating System The software foundation that powers the operating model. Powered by the OPUS Platform, it is where you create, deploy, govern, and scale specialized OPUS Agents that work alongside your people.
03 Agentic Business Processes The work model: human teams and governed OPUS Agents performing operational work together through shared objectives, rules, and measurable outcomes. Inventory Visibility & Control for the MAH is one of many.
04 Agentic Control Towers The intelligence environment: the knowledge, reasoning, and operational context humans and OPUS Agents use to monitor, manage, decide, and perform work in real time.
05 Integrate-Once™ Agentic Business Network The governed multienterprise foundation: link once to the network and exchange trusted business transactions with every trading partner — no point-to-point integrations.

Three ways to get here. One is already built.

The AI models are available to everyone. The difference is where the agent's evidence and governance come from — and who has to build and maintain them.

Path one Build it in-house Point-to-point integrations to every trading partner have to exist before the agent can see a single balance report — built and funded by you alone. Governance, audit trails, and validation for a regulated supply chain are designed from scratch. Every partner change, format change, and policy change lands on your team’s backlog — permanently. Years of platform work before the first balance report is screened.
Path two A general AI platform Strong models and tooling — but no knowledge of your industry’s transactions, partners, or processes. Cross-company data is still sourced, mapped, and maintained integration by integration. Governance is a consulting engagement: scope, rules, and audit design built for you over time. A platform to build on — the supply chain part is still your project.
The TraceLink path Agentic Business Process The network already exists: 315,000+ authenticated businesses, 339,000+ active supply chain links, hundreds of billions of annual supply chain exchanges, one Integrate-Once™ link. Governance is native — scope, rules, guardrails, and decision logs on trusted, certified infrastructure (ISO/IEC 42001:2023 for AI management systems, ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II) built for regulated supply chains. The agent is purpose-built for this process and defined in business language — configuration, not code. Proven against your own balance reports through the Agentic Accelerator Program — before you deploy.

The Agentic Accelerator Program

A structured path from discovery to production. Each stage has a clear owner and exit criteria: we define the agent with your team, quantify the value against your own transaction data, and demonstrate the transformed process end to end — so the deployment decision is grounded in evidence from your own operation.

01 Agent Definition Configure the agent’s profile, business logic, and workflows against the approved blueprint.
02 Business Value Analysis Quantify KPI impact, operational gains, and ROI against your own transaction data.
03 Proof of Value The working agent performs the transformed process end to end, in front of your team.
04 Proposal Deployment recommendation, scope, roadmap, and an outcome-based commercial model.
05 Deployment Production at scale, across your full trading-partner network.

Your network is the reason you can act now

If you receive inventory balance reports from your CMOs on the TraceLink network, the foundation is largely in place. Your existing trading-partner relationships, live transaction flows, and network readiness are what make this deployable now.

We will show you which transactions are already live across your own trading partners, and exactly what closing any gap takes.
