The key to this case is not the single-point use of AI, but the weighting of “industrial procurement/material positioning” into an enforceable, verifiable production stream with boundaries of human responsibility.

Business problem

The SKU and material systems are complex, and procurement staff rely on the experience of older staff to locate replacement and correct material.

Solution

Integration of product information, historical procurement and business rules, semantic retrieval and matching of AI assistive materials.

Technical architecture & production workflow

Step 01

SOP / History Case / Expert Interview

Step 02

Document Parsing, Cutting and Metadata Tags

→

Step 03

Embedding / semantic index

→

Step 04

Retrieving similar cases and rules based on current questions

→

Step 05

LLM is evidence-based advice and attachment

FDE delivery actions

"When will the staff come to see the teacher?"
Interviews with experts to convert tacit judgment into searchable cases and rules
Design knowledge particles, labels, versions and privileges instead of simply uploading documents
Recall rate/Application of answers using real questions
Keep feeding back feedback, wrong answers and new cases.

Reusable delivery patterns

HF, high-cost, verifiable narrow-flow selection
Steps that can be validated with a certainty tool to prevent model self-assessment
Retain manual responsibility for high-risk actions
For each manual amendment to follow-up searchable context/rules

Business outcomes & delivery results

Case focus shortens positioning time and reduces empirical reliance; public information does not disclose harmonized ROI.

Evidence boundaries & verification notes

Public information confirming business processes; technical components are abstract architecture based on public description
The source can be directly located in the case; the value remains disclosed by the source and does not represent an independent audit.
