# Forged Operations

## Company
Forged Operations is a Canadian nuclear technology company building AI-native quality infrastructure for the nuclear industry. Founded by engineers from Ontario Power Generation (OPG), the company is headquartered in Canada and backed by Forum Ventures.

## Platform
Forged Operations builds the operating system for nuclear quality, across the entire supply chain. It replaces fragmented spreadsheets, shared drives, and disconnected tools with one connected platform that manages the full scope of a nuclear quality program and stops problems before they become findings.

### Core Modules
- Supplier Qualification: Automated supplier evaluations, approved supplier lists, risk scoring, qualification tracking, and re-qualification workflows.
- Document Control: Version-controlled document management with review/approval workflows, distribution tracking, and full audit trails.
- Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs): End-to-end NCR lifecycle from identification through disposition, root cause analysis, and corrective action tracking.
- Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs): Structured inspection planning with hold/witness/review points, linked to suppliers and work packages.
- Work Qualifications: Personnel certification tracking, training records, qualification matrices, and expiry monitoring.
- Audit Readiness: Cross-module evidence assembly, gap analysis, and compliance dashboards for internal and external audits.

### AI Capabilities
The AI reads across the entire quality record: suppliers, NCRs, documents, training, audit evidence. It catches revision drift, flags unqualified personnel, assembles audit packages, and surfaces compliance issues before they become findings. Every AI output is traceable to source records.

### Compliance Standards Supported
- NQA-1 (ASME Nuclear Quality Assurance)
- CSA N299 (Quality Assurance for Nuclear Components)
- CSA N286 (Management System Requirements for Nuclear Facilities)
- ISO 19443 (Quality Management for Nuclear Supply Chain)
