Repair plans for maintenance exceptions

Turns machine alerts and work orders into repair plans with parts, urgency and evidence, and asks a supervisor to decide safety and downtime trade-offs before dispatch.

The operation

For maintenance exceptions, give supervisors a recommended repair plan with parts, urgency, and evidence from work orders, machine alerts, asset history, SOPs, and similar failures.
Built it in 5 steps. A supervisor decides safety and downtime trade-offs in Teams, and Malleable handles the rest.
