    Warranty and Returns Triage for Cost Recovery

    Mid-market manufacturers often treat warranty returns as a chronic cost center because RMA triage is slow, manual, and scattered across emails, PDFs, and spreadsheets. By consolidating RMA data on a governed lakehouse and applying agentic AI with pragmatic text clustering and rules, teams can classify failures faster, route ownership, and engage suppliers with auditable evidence. This reduces cycle time, increases supplier recovery, and feeds timely insights back into engineering without adding headcount.
