| Planning variable | Reference range | Interpretation boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Duplicate-rate assumption | Buyer-entered or default planning hypothesis | Replaced by uploaded catalog evidence after a diagnostic run. |
| Average affected item value | Buyer-entered or default planning reference | Used only where actual unit costs are unavailable. |
| Carrying-cost assumption | Buyer-entered or default annualized reference | Represents a planning view of working-capital cost, storage, obsolescence, and management overhead. |
| Recoverable capital assumption | Scenario range selected by the buyer | Depends on stock status, criticality, interchangeability, and owner approval. |
| Emergency-buy premium assumption | Buyer-entered or default planning reference | Applied only as a scenario input where duplicate records may obscure supplier or available-stock logic. |
| FX conversion | Display conversion only | Currency conversion is for readability and does not change the evidence class of the scenario. |
Evidence discipline
Planning assumption first. Actual diagnostic second. ERP action only after owner review.
AI2COE uses planning variables to help leaders size whether a problem is worth examining. PartsCleanse AI then uses uploaded data to create actual findings. The product never treats a planning assumption as a command to retire, merge, or delete ERP records.
Proof control: Any public value statement should say whether it is a planning assumption, a calculated estimate, or diagnostic evidence from uploaded data.
FAQ
How to interpret AI2COE planning numbers.
Are AI2COE planning assumptions financial claims?
No. Public calculator values are planning assumptions. Financial interpretation depends on uploaded data, actual quantities, unit costs, confidence tiers, and owner-approved remediation.
Why does AI2COE use USD as a base value?
USD can be used as a neutral calculation base for scenario comparability. Display conversion does not make the scenario an observed financial result.
Why use Lakh and Crore for India-style currencies?
Large values in INR, PKR, BDT, LKR, and NPR are easier for local executives to read in Lakh and Crore notation than in generic M/B notation.
What makes the diagnostic different from the calculator?
The diagnostic uses the actual uploaded catalog to produce duplicate-family findings, confidence tiers, and report artifacts. The calculator only estimates a directional value signal.
