Edge pipeline overview

How IntelFactor produces inspection outcomes at the edge.

The edge pipeline exists to produce timely, auditable inspection outcomes without disrupting production.

High-level flow

1. Observe the production process.

2. Evaluate what is observed against inspection intent.

3. Produce a structured inspection outcome.

4. Capture evidence artifacts for traceability.

5. Publish results for local and (optionally) cloud visibility.

What’s guaranteed here

• Outcomes are produced locally.

• Evidence is retained as structured artifacts.

• The system favors continuity and predictable behavior.

Key supporting docs

• Evidence & retention policy

• Data model: causal triples

What’s intentionally abstracted

• Internal decision logic.

• Environment-specific tuning.

• Site-specific deployment procedures.
