Limitations
LIMITATIONS — forge-pm-work-order-sim
FICTIONAL / SYNTHETIC DEPLOYMENT MODEL. Read this first. Everything below is a
disclosed seam — a place where this study is simulated rather than live.
DISCLOSED_SEAM — Fictional customer
"Forge Property Management" does not exist. There is no real customer relationship, contract, deployment, or case study. This is a synthetic deployment model built to size an opportunity honestly, not a record of real work.
DISCLOSED_SEAM — Synthetic data
All 100,000 work orders are machine-generated by a seeded PRNG (src/enterprise-synth.mjs) with a ground-truth answer key. Properties, units, tenants, vendors, timestamps, costs, and descriptions are invented. Reported accuracy is measured against the synthetic key; real tenant text is messier and more varied, so absolute accuracy in a real deployment would differ.
DISCLOSED_SEAM — Simulated operations & ROI
Manual handling time (8 min/order), exception review time (5 min/order), coordinator cost ($38/h), implementation cost, and platform cost are **stated illustrative assumptions** (assumptions.json), not measured production figures. The ROI is a transparent model driven by the measured auto-action rate plus those assumptions — it is not a realized financial result.
DISCLOSED_SEAM — In-process infrastructure
Persistence uses the real PostgreSQL engine via PGlite (in-memory for this run), and dispatch crosses a real gRPC/HTTP2 wire to a Node service on localhost. An external managed PostgreSQL (DATABASE_URL) and a Go gRPC dispatch service implementing proto/dispatch.proto are wire-compatible, but are not exercised here.
DISCLOSED_SEAM — Lexicon classifier, not an LLM
The classifier is a deterministic keyword-lexicon model chosen for auditability. The production design swaps an LLM behind the same interface; that swap and its accuracy on real text are unverified here.
DISCLOSED_SEAM — Enterprise non-functional controls not in scope
Identity/SSO, RBAC, tenant isolation, audit retention policy, and security/compliance review are out of scope for this simulation and would be required (and Proof-Layer weighed) before any real production claim.
What is NOT claimed
- No real production performance.
- No realized savings.
- Not
CERTIFIEDand notPRODUCTION_VALIDATED(the Proof Layer assigns the state;
the fictional-customer seam blocks those by design). The simulation-tier label is FICTIONAL_DEPLOYMENT_MODEL_CERTIFIED — internally validated and reproducible only.
