usable_quantityLLMFail
Why it mattersCoverage must be assessed on usable yield-adjusted quantity net of allocations, and the original attempt's central risk is treating gross or physically-present pounds as usable.
How to passChecks that the analysis workbook reports usable on-hand quantity using the formula (On Hand - Allocated) x Yield Factor for inventory lots rather than gross on-hand pounds.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedThe usable-quantity result is shown per lot but the on-hand, allocated, and yield-factor fields needed to verify the formula are not shown together.
Justification
The workbook extract does not show a lot-level usable on-hand calculation with On Hand Qty, existing Allocated Qty, and Yield Factor. It only shows requirement allocations (for example, LOT-7F3A2B has 630 gross allocated and 516.6 usable), so the required formula (On Hand Qty - Allocated Qty) x Yield Factor is not explicitly evidenced for at least two inventory lots.
country_of_originLLMFail
Why it mattersCountry-of-origin restrictions are binding contractual constraints, and the cheapest/fastest options for several critical lines are non-qualifying-origin material that must not be selected.
How to passChecks that material melted in China or Russia is excluded for the DFARS programs (Raven, Sable) and the CUST-EU programs (Meridian, Tundra) regardless of price or certificate quality.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedThe workbook avoids allocating China or Russia melt to the restricted programs but does not show the explicit origin-based rejection reason for those lots or quotes.
Justification
The workbook text only shows requirements, allocations, shortages, and feasible quotes; it does not include melt-origin data or origin-based rejection reasons for Raven, Sable, Meridian, or Tundra. The required explicit rejections of the Hangzhou (China) lot/quote, Volga (Russia) lot/quote, the Yellow River (China) Raven quote, and the Hangzhou (China) 15-5PH 5659 Meridian bar are not shown, so the rubric is not satisfied.
cert_traceabilityLLMFail
Why it mattersEN 10204 3.1/3.2 certification and full traceability are minimum eligibility gates, and the original attempt risks accepting C-of-C or non-traceable material that is physically attractive.
How to passChecks that Certificate-of-Conformance-only lots/quotes and partial-traceability lots are excluded from certified-production coverage.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedThe workbook has no certification-type or traceability-status field, so the required rejection of C-of-C-only and partial-traceability material cannot be verified.
Justification
The workbook text contains only requirement, allocation, shortage, and quote tables; it provides no certification field (EN 10204 Type 3.1/3.2 vs C of C), no traceability status, and no rejection/exclusion reasons. The cited exclusions are not documented (no Tri-State 4340/7075 C-of-C rejection, no Meridian 6061 partial-traceability rejection, no ~$4.95/lb dock ~2026-07-15 rejected quote), so the required rejection logic is not evidenced.
source_hold_statusLLMFail
Why it mattersApproved-source status and hold status are hard eligibility gates, and otherwise-attractive USA-origin material from these sources must not be planned against requirements.
How to passChecks that sources in Suspended, Conditional, or Not Approved status, and material under an open quality/MRB or receiving-inspection hold, are excluded from new commitments.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedThe workbook does not document the specific hold or exclusion reason for one or more disallowed lots even though the exclusion itself is applied.
Justification
The workbook only shows Requirement Analysis, Allocations, Shortages, and Feasible Quotes; it does not document the required exclusion/rejection reasons for the Lone Star conditional lot/quote, Meridian Service Center suspended lot, Volga not-approved lot, the Ardenne 15-5PH 5862 MRB-hold lot, or the 17-4PH bar under receiving-inspection hold. Because this required evidence is missing, the rubric is not satisfied.
substitution_policyLLMFail
Why it mattersThe substitution policy is exhaustive and prohibits interchange (e.g., T651 vs T7351, /11 vs /12, bar vs plate vs extrusion), so a model must not silently treat near-match material as covering a callout.
How to passChecks that no alloy, temper/condition, product-form, or specification sub-spec substitution is applied beyond same-spec oversize/remnant cutdown.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedThe workbook has no alloy, spec, temper, or product-form fields on the requirement rows, so exact-callout substitution cannot be verified.
Justification
The workbook shows requirement IDs, lot allocations, shortages, and quotes, but it does not include alloy, exact specification/sub-spec, temper/condition, or product form for requirements or lots, and it shows no engineering deviation or MRB disposition. Because exact callout matching cannot be verified from the provided data, the rubric is not satisfied.
allocation_priorityLLMPass
Why it mattersProgram-priority allocation is an explicit contention rule, and getting it wrong misassigns scarce compliant stock between competing programs.
How to passChecks that contested inventory lots usable by more than one requirement are allocated to the higher-priority (lower rank number) program first, with lower-priority shortfalls flowing to new purchase.
Reads
lead_time_feasibilityLLMPass
Why it mattersLead-time feasibility is an explicit gate, and the original attempt risks counting a compliant quote that docks on or after need-by as resolving a requirement on schedule.
How to passChecks that a supplier quote is treated as feasible only when its quoted dock/receipt date precedes the requirement need-by date.
Reads
requirement_coverageLLMPass
Why it mattersRequirement-level coverage classification is the core analytical output the task asks for and must be complete across all demand lines.
How to passChecks that the workbook classifies each of the 26 requirements into a coverage disposition (covered from compliant inventory, partial inventory plus buy, or full new purchase) at the requirement-ID level.
Reads
traceabilityLLMFail
Why it mattersRequirement-level traceability is an explicit auditability obligation and is exactly where a weaker solution omits the why-rejected evidence chain.
How to passChecks that for each at-risk requirement the workbook records the selected inventory lot(s) with usable quantity, the rejected lots with reasons, the selected quote, the rejected quote alternatives with reasons, the residual after inventory, and the resulting purchase quantity and cost.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedFor some at-risk requirements the rejected-lot reasons, rejected-quote reasons, or resulting purchase cost are not present anywhere in the workbook, not merely on another sheet.
Justification
The workbook does not satisfy the required per-requirement audit trail. While selected lots and usable allocated quantities can be cross-referenced in 'Allocations' and residual shortages appear in 'Requirement Analysis'/'Shortages', there is no single requirement-level view tying all elements together, and key required evidence is missing: no rejected inventory lots with disqualifying reasons, no selected supplier quote, no rejected/alternative quote reasons, and no resulting purchase quantity or cost.
residual_vs_moqLLMFail
Why it mattersConflating need with MOQ-inflated buy quantity was a defect in the earlier attempt and obscures both true demand and committed spend.
How to passChecks that requirement residual quantity is reported separately from the minimum-order-quantity-adjusted purchase quantity, with the excess identified.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedMOQ-driven buys show the residual need and the MOQ-adjusted order quantity across various sheets but never state the excess amount as its own value.
Justification
The workbook shows only residual/shortage quantities for MOQ-like cases (e.g., REQ-S6P3 shortage 69.50000000000003 and REQ-E9C1 shortage 1.749999999999943) plus feasible quotes, but nowhere shows an MOQ-adjusted ordered quantity or the resulting excess. No columns or entries identify MOQ, purchase qty, or excess, so the required distinction is missing.
cost_reconciliationLLMFail
Why it mattersA reconciled, self-consistent committed total was an explicit fix from the earlier attempt, where the memo and PO tab disagreed on the headline figure and shared lines risked double-charging.
How to passChecks that the workbook presents a single authoritative total committed new-buy cost with no conflicting totals and a cost chain that reconciles, with shared quote lines not double-counted.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedNo single headline committed new-buy total or purchase-order cost-line detail appears anywhere in the extracted workbook.
Justification
The extracted workbook shows sheets for Requirement Analysis, Allocations, Shortages, and Feasible Quotes, but no headline committed new-buy cost and no purchase-order cost lines/ordered quantities to sum against such a total. Because shared quote lines do appear across multiple requirements (e.g., QTE-A3F91C, QTE-3A9F18, QTE-5D8B72) but there is no committed-cost chain to verify single-order combined billing, the rubric is not satisfied.
escalation_languageLLMFail
Why it mattersClarifying escalation language so that 'every requirement has a feasible path' is not conflated with quality holds awaiting action was an explicit obligation from the earlier revision.
How to passChecks that the memo states there is no hard sourcing dead-end while separately listing quality/MRB/process escalations.
Reads
Failure mode Escalation or Tradeoff Communication Incomplete
Why it failedThe memo never cleanly pairs the required no-hard-sourcing-dead-end assertion with a separately listed set of quality or process escalations, either because a genuine shortfall remains unstated as such or because the two kinds of issue are conflated.
Justification
The memo lists sourcing actions/quotes for requirements, but it does not clearly assert that every requirement has a compliant, schedule-feasible sourcing path with no hard dead-end. It also does not provide a separate list of non-sourcing quality/process escalations (e.g., MRB-held lot clearance, receiving-inspection hold, MRP-tentative confirmation, Halcyon origin preference). Instead, it says requirements not fully satisfied from inventory may require MRB/PMO escalation if no feasible quote exists, which does not distinguish quality/process holds from sourcing coverage.
memo_recommendationLLMFail
Why it mattersThe task's core decision principle is distinguishing usable material from merely cheap/fast/available material, and the memo is where that reasoning must be made legible to leadership.
How to passChecks that the memo recommends a sourcing/allocation plan that prioritizes compliance over lowest price or shortest lead time and explicitly identifies rejected cheaper/faster non-compliant options.
Reads
Failure mode Escalation or Tradeoff Communication Incomplete
Why it failedThe memo argues compliance over price or lead time but omits naming at least one of the three required attractive, cheaper, or faster non-compliant quotes along with the specific reason it was rejected.
Justification
The memo recommends compliant sourcing in general and notes DFARS/C-of-C/lead-time constraints, but it does not explicitly identify and reject the required attractive-but-noncompliant options. It never names the lowest-price China-melt 7075-T7351 (~$6.85/lb), Russia-melt 15-5PH (~$8.10/lb), or C-of-C-only 4340 bar (~$4.95/lb) quotes, nor gives quote-specific reasons each was unusable.
no_fabrication_side_effectsLLMFail
Why it mattersThe task forbids inventing options beyond the source packet, and penalizing fabricated content or unrequested side-additions protects against hallucinated uplift that would look like a stronger answer.
How to passChecks that the deliverables do not introduce fabricated alloys, tempers, substitutions, approvals, waivers, expedite options, or other material not present in the source files, and do not add materially unsolicited deliverables.
Reads
Failure mode Grader Context or Extraction Incomplete
Why it failedThe judge's own extract omits the underlying sourcing packet or is truncated partway through the workbook, so it cannot verify fabrication even though nothing fabricated is visible in what was shown.
Justification
The workbook is internally consistent, but the provided data does not include the underlying sourcing packet needed to verify that the listed suppliers, quote IDs, feasible quotes, and allocation figures are source-supported rather than invented. Under the rubric’s strict no-fabrication requirement, that missing evidence fails.
residual_po_reconciliationLLMFail
Why it mattersThe shared-PO double-counting failure mode (inflating the committed total by billing one quote line at each requirement's minimum) is exactly where the earlier attempt produced an unreconciled headline figure, and catching it is a fair, materially distinct core check.
How to passChecks that the sum of per-requirement residual purchase needs reconciles to the consolidated purchase-order quantities and committed cost, so shared quote lines are not double-counted across the requirements they serve.
Reads
Failure mode Required Evidence Fields or Rows Omitted
Why it failedThe workbook has no purchase-order sheet, ordered quantities, or committed cost to reconcile the residuals against.
Justification
The workbook shows requirement residuals, inventory allocations, shortages, and feasible quotes, but no actual purchase-order sheet, ordered quantities, per-order costs, supplier minimums, or committed total. Shared quote lines do exist (e.g., QTE-A3F91C for REQ-H4A2/REQ-B6N3; QTE-3A9F18 and QTE-5D8B72 for REQ-T2C7/REQ-V1D9), yet there is no evidence that they were ordered once at the combined residual rather than counted per requirement. Because the residuals cannot be reconciled to PO quantities and cost roll-up, the rubric is not satisfied.
secondary (1)
memo_consistencyLLMPass
Why it mattersIf the memo asserts headline counts or program restriction classes, they must be accurate and self-consistent; this guards against a confidently-stated but wrong summary rather than mandating an unprompted structure.
How to passChecks that any coverage counts or per-program restriction classes the memo chooses to state are internally consistent and correct, without forcing the memo to include specific counts.

Material Sourcing Recommendation Memo
To: Sourcing, Production, and Quality Leadership
Date: August 20, 2026
Subject: Q3 2026 Material Sourcing Plan
1. Executive Summary
Following a rigorous review of available inventory and supplier quotes against the Q3 2026 Build Wave requirements and Engineering Material Substitution Policy, the allocations and sourcing actions have been finalized. The objective of this review is to ensure that only compliant material with full traceability, valid certifications (Type 3.1 minimum), and appropriate approved-source origin is utilized, respecting program priorities and constraints.
2. Shortages & At-Risk Requirements
The following requirements could not be fully satisfied from existing eligible inventory. Feasible quotes have been evaluated. Any requirement without a feasible quote requires immediate escalation to MRB and the PMO.

3. Key Constraints & Program Risks
The analysis enforced strict compliance with ENG-MSP Rev H. Notable constraints included:
DFARS constraints for Raven and Sable severely limited eligible material to US and qualifying countries, disqualifying several physically available lots and cheap quotes.
Strict adherence to alloy, specification, and product form rules prevented cross-allocation between non-interchangeable materials.
Certificates of Conformance (C of C) were rejected as insufficient; only Type 3.1 or 3.2 certs were accepted.
Lead times were strictly enforced; quotes delivering after the need-by date were marked infeasible.
4. Next Steps
Please refer to the attached Excel workbook 'material_sourcing_analysis_workbook.xlsx' for the complete requirement analysis, lot allocations, and supplier quote evaluations. Sourcing should immediately execute POs for the feasible quotes listed. The PMO should be notified of any escalated unfillable requirements.

You are supporting a material sourcing review for an aerospace components manufacturer that builds certified door and hinge mechanism assemblies. Upcoming production lots require aluminum and steel raw materials, including plate, bar, extrusion, and machined-stock inputs. Several material requirements are at risk because available inventory, supplier quotes, lead times, certification status, source approvals, allocations, yield loss, and program priorities do not all align. Production and sourcing leadership need a sourcing plan that identifies which material lots can be used, which supplier quotes should be acted on, which requirements remain at risk, and which program commitments should be prioritized. The objective is not simply to buy the cheapest or fastest available material; the recommendation must distinguish physically available material from material that is actually usable for certified aerospace production. Using the attached material sourcing packet, determine the recommended sourcing and allocation plan for the current review cycle. Identify which aluminum and steel requirements can be covered from compliant on-hand inventory, which require new purchases, which supplier quotes are feasible, and which shortages or compliance issues require escalation. Evaluate the tradeoffs among material specification, temper or condition, product form, mill certification, traceability, approved-source status, country-of-origin or customer restrictions, available quantity after allocation, usable yield, lead time, cost, and program delivery impact. Work only from the attached materials: the material demand forecast, inventory lot and certification snapshot, approved material source list, supplier quote and lead-time matrix, engineering material substitution policy, and program priority / build schedule. Do not invent alternate alloys, tempers, substitutions, engineering approvals, customer waivers, supplier capacity, expedite options, certification corrections, yield a

I have successfully analyzed the material sourcing data and generated the required deliverables.
Using the explicit constraints in the Engineering Material Substitution Policy (ENG-MSP Rev H) and the Program Priority Build Schedule, I applied the following logic:
- Compliance Validation: I disqualified all inventory lots and supplier quotes that relied on Certificates of Conformance ("C of C") instead of Type 3.1 or 3.2 mill reports, lacked full traceability, or were under a quality hold.
- Origin & Approved Source Constraints: I enforced DFARS and CUST-EU country-of-origin restrictions based on the respective program requirements (e.g., PRG-RAVEN and PRG-SABLE were strictly limited to USA and qualifying country material). Only sources actively listed as "Approved" on the AMSL were considered.
- Yield & Prioritized Allocation: Usable inventory was calculated by factoring in the yield loss and existing allocations. Available compliant stock was then allocated in priority sequence (1 through 6) to cover the demand forecast.
- Quote Evaluation: Supplier quotes were filtered for exact matching specifications, acceptable certification, appropriate origin, and a lead time that successfully precedes the requirement's need-by date.
The two deliverables have been created in the output directory:
/workspace/output/material_sourcing_recommendation_memo.docx: An executive recommendation memo detailing the sourcing plan, summarizing at-risk requirements, listing program constraints, and identifying unresolved shortages requiring escalation to the PMO and MRB./workspace/output/material_sourcing_analysis_workbook.xlsx: The detailed analysis workbook documenting requirement coverage, inventory allocation sequences, feasible substitute quotes, and yield-adjusted quantity math.
3 failure modes across 12 verifier failures
1Required Evidence Fields or Rows OmittedView on Failure Modes ↗Deliverable Completion and Structure9 failures
Description
Is the decision generally present, but the required exact identifiers, comparison rows, operational columns, governing terms, before-and-after values, or validation fields needed to verify it are absent?
Failure evidence · per affected verifier
The usable-quantity result is shown per lot but the on-hand, allocated, and yield-factor fields needed to verify the formula are not shown together.
The workbook avoids allocating China or Russia melt to the restricted programs but does not show the explicit origin-based rejection reason for those lots or quotes.
The workbook has no certification-type or traceability-status field, so the required rejection of C-of-C-only and partial-traceability material cannot be verified.
The workbook does not document the specific hold or exclusion reason for one or more disallowed lots even though the exclusion itself is applied.
The workbook has no alloy, spec, temper, or product-form fields on the requirement rows, so exact-callout substitution cannot be verified.
For some at-risk requirements the rejected-lot reasons, rejected-quote reasons, or resulting purchase cost are not present anywhere in the workbook, not merely on another sheet.
MOQ-driven buys show the residual need and the MOQ-adjusted order quantity across various sheets but never state the excess amount as its own value.
No single headline committed new-buy total or purchase-order cost-line detail appears anywhere in the extracted workbook.
The workbook has no purchase-order sheet, ordered quantities, or committed cost to reconcile the residuals against.
2Escalation or Tradeoff Communication IncompleteView on Failure Modes ↗Presentation and Communication2 failures
Description
Does the final communication omit or conflate a required escalation, rejected attractive alternative, disqualifying reason, residual risk, or distinction between a feasible plan and separate process actions?
Failure evidence · per affected verifier
The memo never cleanly pairs the required no-hard-sourcing-dead-end assertion with a separately listed set of quality or process escalations, either because a genuine shortfall remains unstated as such or because the two kinds of issue are conflated.
The memo argues compliance over price or lead time but omits naming at least one of the three required attractive, cheaper, or faster non-compliant quotes along with the specific reason it was rejected.
3Grader Context or Extraction IncompleteView on Failure Modes ↗Grader Error1 failure
Description
Does direct inspection show the challenged source fact, companion artifact, row, field, or formula exists, while the verdict relies on a missing packet, truncated extract, unreadable cache, or refusal to inspect the required companion file?
Failure evidence · per affected verifier
The judge's own extract omits the underlying sourcing packet or is truncated partway through the workbook, so it cannot verify fabrication even though nothing fabricated is visible in what was shown.
