AI-led continuous controls monitoring for steel and metals

IRA, IRAME's AI auditor, checks raw material, freight and sales transactions every day as they post, at plant volume.

IRAME tests each of these on every transaction. Here is what a failure looks like.

Weighbridge and receipt quantities
Coal is billed for more tons than the weighbridge recorded.
Freight bills
A carrier bills the same trip twice, or above the contract rate.
Quality deductions
A supplier is paid in full though the lab report called for a deduction.
Imports and duty
The duty paid on imported coal does not match the import entry.
Scrap and by-product sales
Slag is sold below the approved rate or to an unapproved buyer.
Power and fuel use
Power used per ton jumps with no change in output.
Dealer discounts and credit limits
A dealer ships above its credit limit.
Stores and spares
Spares are issued to a cost center with no open work order.

Can IRAME check steel plant transactions every day?

Yes. IRA runs controls on a schedule at transaction volume. One of India's largest steel makers runs its key controls on IRAME and checks 100,000 transactions every day.

Which data does IRAME need from a steel plant?

The data your plant already keeps: SAP or Oracle records, Excel and CSV exports, and scanned documents.

Who follows up on a plant exception?

IRA routes each exception to its owner in Action Hub. Physical checks such as stock counts stay with your team, and the result is uploaded against the exception.
