Solutions / Automated technical reporting

Automated technical reporting

For energy companies, utilities, industrial and port operators whose recurring reports are still assembled by hand. Mirage agents pull the figures from your systems, spreadsheets and documents, reconcile them, fill your own report template, and flag every missing or inconsistent value instead of guessing. A named person approves the report before it goes out.

Being deployed at Mass Céréales Al Maghreb's grain terminals: a document layer that generates recurring operational reports.

The reality

Every month, someone builds the monthly report by hand. The tonnages come from one system, the equipment hours from another, the consumption from a meter export, the incidents from shift logs, and someone copies each figure into last month's file, checks it against the others, and chases whoever forgot to close a work order. The shift report is rebuilt by hand every morning the same way.

What Mirage does

How automated technical reporting works

Mirage sits beside the systems you already run, not in place of them. Each field of your template has a source, a rule and a tolerance, written down with your team before the first report.

Every source pulled and reconciled

The agents read the ERP, the maintenance system, weighbridge and supervision exports, the spreadsheets and the shift documents a report is built from. Where two sources carry the same figure, they are compared, and the value enters the report only when they agree within the tolerance set for that field.

Your template, not a new format

The report comes out in the template your readers already know: the same sections, the same tables, the same wording around the figures. A report sent outside in a format someone else sets, a parent company or an authority, keeps that format.

Gaps flagged, never guessed

A value missing from its source, or two sources that disagree beyond the tolerance, is marked in the draft with the reason and the sources attached. Nothing is filled by estimate. A named person reviews the flags, decides, and approves the report before it goes out.

Which reports can be automated, where it runs, how long it takes

Any report that comes back on a schedule, in the same shape, from data that already exists somewhere in the operation.

Shift and daily reports

What was planned, what was done, what stood still and why: one record per shift, assembled from the systems and the shift logs, ready for the supervisor to read and sign instead of rebuilding it every morning.

Monthly and recurring reports in a set format

Operating reports for management, availability and consumption reports, and recurring reports whose format is set by a parent company, a concession holder or an authority. The person who signs today still signs; Mirage prepares the draft and shows where each figure comes from.

Where it runs and who sees what

Mirage can run in your infrastructure or your cloud account, with the encryption keys yours and Mirage's access limited to what the deployment needs and removable. Every agent action is logged with its inputs, its sources, the rule applied and the result, and the record stays in your environment.

From the first meeting to the first report

A proof of concept on one of your past reports one week after the first meeting, and the first report workflow in production in 4 to 6 weeks. It starts with a fixed-price pilot you can stop after. Where a system has no documented interface, Mirage's engineers build the connector during deployment.

The output

A monthly operating report, field by field

An illustrative monthly report for a bulk terminal, with invented values: each field, the system it comes from, and what the agent did with it.

Proof

Recurring operational reports, being deployed at a port operator

Mirage has no published reporting deployment in production with figures, and no energy or utilities client. The nearest published work is at Mass Céréales Al Maghreb, where the document layer being deployed generates recurring operational reports; its case study carries no result figure yet.

Automated technical reporting, on one of your own reports

Send us a past report and the sources it was built from: the exports, spreadsheets and documents. We come back with the same report filled field by field, each value traced to its source, what we would have held for a person, and what connecting your systems involves.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • Recurring technical and operational reports, shift, daily or monthly, assembled by software from the systems, spreadsheets and documents they are built from. With Mirage, agents pull and reconcile the sources, fill your own template, flag what is missing or inconsistent, and a named person approves the report before it goes out.

  • Any report that comes back on a schedule, in the same shape, from data that already exists: shift and daily reports, monthly operating reports, availability and consumption reports, and recurring reports in a format set by a parent company, a concession holder or an authority.

  • The field is marked in the draft with the reason and the sources attached, and nothing is filled by estimate. Each field has a tolerance written with your team; a value enters the report on its own only when its sources agree within it.

  • A person you name for each report. They see the flagged fields with their sources, decide, and approve. Every agent action is logged with its inputs, sources, rule and result, so any figure in the report can be traced back to where it came from.

  • Mirage has not published one with figures, and has no energy or utilities client. At Mass Céréales Al Maghreb, operator of grain terminals in Casablanca and Jorf Lasfar, the document layer being deployed generates recurring operational reports; the case study carries no result figure yet.

  • The ERP, the maintenance system, weighbridge and supervision exports, meter exports, spreadsheets and shift documents; where no documented interface exists, Mirage's engineers build the connector. Mirage can run in your infrastructure or your cloud account, with the encryption keys yours and its own access limited and removable.

  • A proof of concept on one of your past reports one week after the first meeting, and the first report workflow in production in 4 to 6 weeks. Reports drawing on many systems or sites can take longer and are scoped at the first meeting.

  • A fixed-price pilot on one of your recurring reports first, which you can stop after. Then an annual subscription priced by volume, quoted in the first conversation.
