- Before
- Which jobs share a batch and when it goes in lived in a veteran planner's head and spreadsheets — half a day to plan a week.
- With AI

Groups by process, queues by due date, fills each batch — only jobs with materials ready.
Example: 72% → 85% fill ≈ 18% more oven capacity

One more batch through the bottleneck is one more for the whole plant.
