Missions

Illustrative

Twelve missions, and one nobody would attempt.

Each mission is a job a large company already knows. Each is shown the way it runs today and the way it runs on a Solstice fleet, with the functions involved, the size of the fleet and the time on the clock when the last approval clears. Every scenario, figure and timeline is illustrative.

Mission Zero

ImpossibleIllustrative

The impossible morning

A tariff lands at midnight. By lunchtime the company has been rebuilt around it: supply, pricing, customers and guidance.

Halvorsen Industrial (fictional company) is a $14B US manufacturer with 31,000 employees, 18,000 SKUs, 4,200 suppliers and customers in 42 countries. At 11:58 PM a 60% tariff on its largest supplier country takes effect without warning. The stock opens at 9:30 AM. The board meets at 1:00 PM.

Sol, I need the whole company rebuilt around this tariff before the board meets. Supply, pricing, customers, guidance. Everything.

Before
No company today would attempt it. The work needs 260 people and 11 weeks, and the board meets in 13 hours.
With Solstice
Every exposed SKU, a qualified alternative supplier for each, a repricing plan for every contract, notices for every customer, revised guidance and the board pack, before lunch.
