Choose a network based on decision value, recurrence, data accessibility, and your ability to observe outcomes. Manufacturing is often an excellent starting point because its constraints directly affect service, inventory, cost, and growth-but the right choice depends on where your most impactful business problems live.

You might focus on how capacity interruptions are evaluated across plants, or whether your manufacturing network can support new market demand. Warehousing or transportation may offer clearer business problems. Avoid use cases that merely add predictions; instead, pick one that connects signals to analysis, judgment, and real action-establishing a complete operating loop.

The goal is meaningful scope: manageable enough to deliver focused early value while broad enough to build reusable services, shared definitions, and governed data access that scales later across your enterprise.
