Interactive decision case

Hurricane Beryl / Port Houston

A historical terminal closure meets an illustrative industrial-equipment network. Inspect how evidence identifies enterprise exposure, how that exposure changes the feasible response portfolio, and how the decision record carries through response, recovery, and learning.

DETECT / AVAILABLE CAPACITY

Compared with zero buffer and no qualified alternate path, the prepared state changes the eligible portfolio from C to BC and keeps $24,000,000 of modeled order value inside the ten-day horizon.

01 / DETECT

What changed—and where can it propagate?

Detect begins before disruption: it carries prepared dependencies, buffers, alternatives, and decision rights into current evidence. Geographic proximity establishes potential exposure; the dependency path establishes why it matters.

Evidence parity

The map is never the only record.

Method / CF-ENUM-1.2.0

A decision is credible when its construction can be inspected.

The browser evaluates every subset of five declared actions. It recommends only portfolios that pass the disclosed budget, timing, capacity, qualification, contract, prerequisite, incompatibility, and authority screens.

Objective
minimize 3 × priority shortfall + standard shortfall
within the displayed horizon, action window, and response budget

Tie-breakers
lower action cost → earlier time to effect → stable action ID

The selected result is exact within this five-action set and the disclosed illustrative assumptions. “Feasible” means eligible to propose under those checks; it does not mean authorized or executed.

This demonstration calculates and compares all 32 portfolios for the disclosed illustrative case. The results show how assumptions and constraints change the choice; they do not establish forecast accuracy, causal action effectiveness, or superior real-world outcomes.

Named baseline fixture

The released baseline is reproducible.

At the released baseline—a five-day hypothetical constraint, two inventory days, 25 alternate supplier units per day, and a $1.5 million response budget—the exact eligible proposal is supplier shift plus inventory repositioning. It leaves $16 million of modeled order value outside the ten-day horizon, compared with $32 million under no response.
