How this diagnostic works for an ICP.
| Business problem | MRO catalog deduplication, field quality, UOM consistency, and duplicate capital exposure. |
|---|---|
| Buyer owner | CFO, CIO, Procurement, Maintenance, and Materials leaders |
| Trigger event | Duplicate SKU complaints, SAP or Maximo migration prep, MRO catalog cleanup, supplier alias confusion, or unreliable material descriptions. |
| Input data required | Description |
| Optional fields | Material Id, Manufacturer, Mpn, Supplier, Uom, Quantity, Unit Cost, Site, Currency |
| Upload workflow | Upload -> Validate -> Analyze -> Evidence -> Score -> Report -> Action -> Repeat |
| Column mapping | Industrial IQ profiles source-fit, suggests field matches, asks the user to normalize unmapped required fields, then recalculates mapping readiness before the engine runs. |
| Evidence generated | Source-backed evidence rows, reason codes, confidence tiers, review status, assumptions, limitations, and action-owner context. |
| Score output | Catalog health score |
| Report output | PartsCleanse AI Catalog Diagnostic Report |
| Confidence tiers | High-confidence findings can move to review; weak or unsafe matches stay in human-review queues. |
| Recurring use case | Monthly or quarterly re-uploads create score history, action progress, benchmark comparison, and renewal value reporting. |
Minimum viable upload and best upload.
| Engine | Required Data File | Required Fields | Optional Fields | Output Generated | Minimum Viable Upload | Best Upload |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PartsCleanse AI | Material or item master CSV | Description | Material Id, Manufacturer, Mpn, Supplier, Uom, Quantity | Catalog health score, evidence, report, actions, score history | Description | Required fields plus site, value, date, owner, asset, supplier, and criticality context where available. |
What this engine analyzes.
- Interchangeability classification: exact duplicate, probable duplicate, same OEM reference, substitute candidate, and unsafe match.
- Golden-record candidate generation with completeness, OEM/MPN, specification, value, and UOM reasons.
- Supplier alias, canonical UOM, OEM/part-number, taxonomy, and duplicate-prevention evidence.
How the engine matures after the first run.
- Taxonomy/specification extraction and missing-attribute backlog by material family.
- Reviewer queue by value, confidence, unsafe-match risk, and duplicate-family size.
- Cross-site catalog health trend and duplicate-prevention readiness score.
- Reference enrichment readiness for OEM catalog, supplier catalog, UNSPSC, eCl@ss, and multilingual descriptions.
- Catalog knowledge graph connecting material, OEM, supplier, UOM, site, specification, and review status.
- Continuous duplicate-prevention gate for future item creation governance.
How to read the output.
PartsCleanse AI Catalog Diagnostic Report includes Catalog health score, evidence records, confidence tiers, assumptions, limitations, action tracker items, score history, and no-write-back governance language.
How this connects to AI2COE Industrial IQ
Catalog Intelligence is not treated as an isolated content topic. Industrial IQ connects it to uploaded data, engine evidence, confidence tiers, executive reports, actions, score history, and governance review.
PartsCleanse AI Documentation buyer enablement checklist.
| Problem solved | Turns an operational data question into source-backed diagnostic evidence. |
|---|---|
| Who cares | CFO, COO, CIO, procurement, maintenance, reliability, ERP, governance, and board stakeholders where relevant. |
| Data needed | CSV exports with stable IDs, descriptions, quantities, values, dates, site, asset, supplier, and owner context where available. |
| Output delivered | Scores, evidence table, confidence tiers, executive report, action tracker items, score history, and governance status. |
| Value quantified | Working capital, carrying cost, emergency premium, dead stock, stockout risk, readiness gaps, or governance risk depending on diagnostic intent. |
| Decision supported | Whether to act, review, normalize data, escalate findings, fund remediation, or repeat the diagnostic cadence. |
| Report shared internally | Executive, CFO, procurement, inventory, readiness, governance, or renewal value report. |
| Recurring value | Baseline score -> re-upload -> score movement -> action closure -> benchmark comparison -> renewal value report. |
| Assumptions and limitations | Benchmarks and estimates remain planning context until customer-specific uploaded data is analyzed and reviewed. |
| Trust controls | No ERP write-back, evidence traceability, confidence tiers, human review, false-positive control, audit trail, and data-retention boundaries. |
