The engineering problemIndustrial operations intelligence for supervisors, managers, and executives.
Shift activity, downtime, operator performance, and management reporting needed one operational model instead of disconnected spreadsheets and delayed summaries.
Component responsibilityWhat this part of the system owns
Owns the shared operational model, persistence, aggregation services, and application shell.
The implementation connects shop-floor entry, aggregation, role-aware views, reporting, persistence, and deployment constraints in one inspectable .NET solution.

Operating flowHow inputs become controlled outputs
Inputs- Operator and shift entries
- Downtime and exception records
- CSV imports and setup data
System behavior- Persist operational records
- Aggregate shift and rolling-period performance
- Shape role-relevant views and alerts
Outputs- Supervisor operating views
- Management analytics
- CSV and print-ready reports
Engineering decisionsWhy the solution is shaped this way
Use one operational data model across entry, analytics, and reporting.
Why: Users see consistent totals and definitions as information moves from the floor to leadership.
Tradeoff: Model changes affect several surfaces and require regression coverage.
Use Blazor Server with EF Core and SQLite for the current pilot.
Why: The stack supports fast .NET delivery and a self-contained operational proof.
Tradeoff: The local persistence model requires a durable disk and is not yet a multi-site enterprise data plane.
