Athena starters for supply chain and operations

Run a supplier risk scan. Ask me which suppliers to watch. For each, cover the last 30 days: financial trouble, disruptions, sanctions, and labor issues. Rate each supplier's risk and cite every item. Deliver three files in my company's brand. If I have Word, PowerPoint, or Excel templates in Athena, ask once which to use and build every file from them, keeping their layouts, styles, and formulas. For the brand, use my company's design system if one exists. Otherwise find my company's website (search the web if you are not sure of the domain), run design_system_retriever on it to get the real logo, colors, and fonts, and save the result with create_design_system so every run matches. Use the real logo image; never redraw it or type the company name in its place. The files: (1) a spreadsheet with one row per supplier and signal (supplier, date, signal, severity, risk rating, source link); (2) a PowerPoint deck with the logo on the title slide, a one-slide summary, a slide per section with a chart wherever there are numbers, and a so-what slide; (3) a Word document with the logo in the header, the full brief, and every source cited. Brand colors and fonts throughout, one idea per slide, no walls of text. Finish with a short summary in chat that links all three. When each run finishes, this one included, email me the three files from Athena: send them to my own email address with the chat summary in the body. If Athena cannot send email in this workspace, say so instead. When you are done, ask me if I want this every Monday at 7am (or every weekday, or monthly instead). Also ask which sections to keep and confirm my IANA time zone (for example America/New_York), and pass it explicitly when creating the schedule. If I choose a schedule, set up a scheduled agent that runs this same brief on it, keeps the spreadsheet asset ID and any template IDs in its instructions, reads the latest dated tab before each run, and reports only what changed since the last run. It says plainly when nothing material changed, and says comparison is unavailable if the prior tab cannot be read. Each run adds a dated tab to the same spreadsheet and makes a new dated deck and document. Whenever I give feedback on a run, in this chat or a later one, update the scheduled agent's instructions (and the template or design system when the feedback is about how the files look) so every later run follows it, then tell me exactly what you changed.

Run a port and freight watch. Ask me which ports, lanes, and carriers we use. Cover the last 7 days: congestion and dwell times, carrier rate and surcharge changes, strikes, weather, and route disruptions, with the likely effect on our lead times. Cite every item. Deliver three files in my company's brand. If I have Word, PowerPoint, or Excel templates in Athena, ask once which to use and build every file from them, keeping their layouts, styles, and formulas. For the brand, use my company's design system if one exists.

Use the real logo image; never redraw it or type the company name in its place. The files: (1) a spreadsheet with one row per signal (date, port or lane, carrier, signal, expected impact, source link); (2) a PowerPoint deck with the logo on the title slide, a one-slide summary, a slide per section with a chart wherever there are numbers, and a so-what slide; (3) a Word document with the logo in the header, the full brief, and every source cited. Brand colors and fonts throughout, one idea per slide, no walls of text. Finish with a short summary in chat that links all three.

Build the weekly carrier report. Ask me for this week's carrier files (spreadsheets in Athena or uploads) and our report template if we have one. Combine them, show on-time rate, cost per shipment, claims, and exceptions by carrier, and flag what got worse. Deliver three files in my company's brand. If I have Word, PowerPoint, or Excel templates in Athena, ask once which to use and build every file from them, keeping their layouts, styles, and formulas. For the brand, use my company's design system if one exists.

Use the real logo image; never redraw it or type the company name in its place. The files: (1) a spreadsheet with one row per carrier (carrier, shipments, on-time %, cost per shipment, claims, exceptions, change); (2) a PowerPoint deck with the logo on the title slide, a one-slide summary, a slide per section with a chart wherever there are numbers, and a so-what slide; (3) a Word document with the logo in the header, the full brief, and every source cited.

Refresh the 12-week demand forecast. Ask me for the sales history (a spreadsheet in Athena or an upload) and planned promotions. Account for seasonality and promotions, show the forecast by SKU with a range, give reorder points and quantities, and say how last run's forecast compared with actuals. Deliver three files in my company's brand. If I have Word, PowerPoint, or Excel templates in Athena, ask once which to use and build every file from them, keeping their layouts, styles, and formulas. For the brand, use my company's design system if one exists.

Review inventory health. Ask me for the latest inventory and sales export (a spreadsheet in Athena or an upload). Flag slow movers, stockout risks in the next 30 days, and excess stock, with the value tied up and a recommended action for each. Deliver three files in my company's brand. If I have Word, PowerPoint, or Excel templates in Athena, ask once which to use and build every file from them, keeping their layouts, styles, and formulas.

Compare these carrier rate cards: [attach]. Normalize them, price our typical shipments under each, and show where each carrier is cheapest by lane and weight band.

Read this standard operating procedure: [attach]. List each step with its inputs, systems, and decisions, mark which steps Athena can run on its own and which need a person, and propose a workflow that runs it on a schedule.
