Operations and Quality
Operations covers the work a company delivers — planned, queued, scheduled and recorded in hours — and quality covers whether it was done right: inspections, non-conformances, release and the certificates that go with it. Both sit on the same record as the orders they serve.
- Planning, work queue and scheduling
- Operations, hours and subcontracting recorded against orders
- Inspections, non-conformances and release
- Certificates produced from the record
The work and whether it was right
Operations is deliberately generic. A company may assemble products, deliver projects on a customer’s site or provide a technical service; in each case there is work to plan, people and equipment to schedule, hours to record and a result someone must check. Hurukan treats all of that as one record, linked to the customer order and milestone that caused it, rather than a separate production system with its own copy of the orders.
Plans that react
Work enters the queue from orders and milestones in Commerce. It is scheduled against the people and equipment available and the materials in Inventory and Logistics. When something changes — a late delivery from a supplier, a sick colleague, an urgent order — an agent proposes a new schedule and lists what it affects. A person approves it, and the new dates reach commerce and customer service at once.
Quality on the same record
Inspections are planned with the work, not after it. Results, measurements and non-conformances are recorded against the operation and the item, with the actions taken to resolve them and who closed them. When finished work is released, the certificate the customer receives is produced from what was actually recorded, so the document and the record always agree.
How it fits with what you run
This module plans and records the work; machine-level control stays in the systems built for it, and Hurukan exchanges data with them. Release is a decision by a named person, and recurring non-conformances are linked to their suppliers in Procurement, where they count towards each supplier’s risk status.
What the module covers
Planning
Work derived from customer orders and milestones, with the capacity, materials and people it needs, so a promise to a customer can be checked against what is possible.
Work queue and scheduling
One queue of work ready to start, scheduled against available people and equipment, and rebuilt when something changes.
Operations and hours
Each operation recorded with who did it, how long it took and what it consumed, against the order it belongs to.
Subcontracting
Work sent to outside partners tracked like work done in-house: what was sent, when it is due back and what it costs.
Inspections and non-conformances
Inspection plans, results and non-conformances recorded against the work and the item, with the actions taken and who closed them.
Release and certificates
A person with release rights approves the result, and the certificate that goes to the customer is produced from the record rather than typed.
Works with
Agentic Logic
Domain agents that act within written limits, with people deciding on critical steps.
Ontology
The company's digital model: objects, relations and rules, versioned and growing with the business.
Data
Connectors and one data model: imports, sync, documents, e-invoicing and office suites in one record.
Inventory and Logistics
Item master, stock, receipts, issues, reservations and counts; delivery planning and carriers.
Procurement
Requisitions, a supplier register with risk status, RFQs, offer comparison, approved purchase orders, deliveries and returns.
Questions
How does it relate to machine control systems?
It plans and records the work, whatever that work is; machine-level control stays in the systems built for it, which Hurukan exchanges data with.
What happens when a schedule breaks?
An agent proposes a rebuilt schedule and lists the orders and customers it affects, with the reasons. A person approves it, and commerce and service see the new dates.
Who releases finished work?
A person with release rights. An agent can gather the inspection results and documents and flag anything missing, but release is a decision recorded against a named person.

Hurukan is pre-launch. If you run a company and want a sovereign, agentic system rather than another suite, we would like to hear what you need.
